That goal to Vardy was an utter joke....The video review umpire for that must be stood down immediately....Absolutely no excuses for that decision....That was why the review was brought in the first place....He has just forfeited on the reason for his very existence...Utter joke!

Well you have to consider precedent with these, don't forget that one Lewis kicked where it clearly WASN'T touched and after reviewing it, they... oh wait... you're right, it's utter bullshit. Carry on.

Didn't get a chance to watch the game against the Suns last week and was little disappointed by thinking we were playing terrible football till half time
But after watching the Suns tonight, I'm feeling a lot better of our win last week as this team has improved dramatically and they are a real chance to beat the cats at Geelong, if they can keep this up:D One can only dream...

Here we go, injuries.

Go Suns:):thumbsu:

I'm sure we are the only team to have been awarded a point when the video evidence has been deemed inconclusive after the goal umpire has called it a goal...and it's happened to us twice!!! :mad:

Suns wasted a few chances that quarter and now it looks like Matera is out :(

Suns a bit stiff. That awful video review, the soft free to Bartel were gifted goals. Plus they had all the play. would love to see 'em upset the Cats at Display Home Park.
Bartel actually moved into the Suns Player - poor umpiring:thumbsdown:

Funny thing was...The Suns player was the only one with HIS eyes on the ball....Some umpires just have no 'Feel' for the game...It's like the holding the ball rule....The entire crowd knows it....But the umpire calls 'Ball-up" or 'Play-On'. KB & The Geish, have a lot to answer 4! Don't get me started on correct disposal either.......Sheeeeesh!

It was always going to be a tough call for the umps as to who was going to win the free kick count.

BT is a flog
Never have I heard a commentator denigrate people the way he does - he is in fact a bully
I can't stand him. His sense of self-importance is mind-blowing. He also has an acid wash pencil case to match his ineradicable, double-denim acid-wash ensemble. True.

It happen again today in the Crows vFreo game the boundary umpire overruled the goal umpire while the goal umpire was 100% it was a goal...He's argument was he heard the ball hitting the post...
AFL's review system is pure madness, sheer ludicrousness :mad::(

Cannot listen to BT at all. I am listening to the radio, doesn't seem to be any discernible delay (probably due to my combination of old ****** + steam driven telly + set top box)
