video review has to go

[syl]

One wrong one today and not this clear goal being reviewed. **** off.

Disagree. Should stay. Adds to interest and tension

 

[Forward Press]

Disagree.

The first Blair one was the right call. Goal umpire thought it hit the post, video replay was inconclusive, original decision stands.

Second Blair one was obviously right.

 

[Gydafud]

Why? Goal umpire thought it came off the knee. Would have been incorrect had he had the call.

I'd rather they get it right. Plus it adds to the tension.

 

[Altum Volantes]

I thought it was great.

The voice over thing that came through was weird though.

 

[hawk for 37]

Op is way wrong. Is a must. Far more chance of the right decision being made. Has to stay.

 

[seanoff]

the first one the goal umpire thought it hit the post, the video didn't disprove him. so point

that one, fair enough. make sure. they made sure, 2 replays. that was ok.


not sure what your argument is?

 

[V_23]

Strongly disagree. The amount of people who want it gone because they haven't got the patience to wait thirty seconds is staggering.

 

[cleveland]

Its great..........doesn't take long either

 

[Ochre]

Agree with OP, was terrible seeing the correct call made with 1 minute left

 

[BLPC08]

OP has no idea, it's great for the game anD creates a much fairer result

 

[damochandler]

i thought the ball hit blairs hand in that last one

The umpire just needs a specific protocol before calling for the review.

For example, "The onfield decision is ______. Does the video show otherwise?"

Or something like that, just to show that inconclusive calls would have stayed the same without the video.

 

[CursoryMercenary]

Should stay definitely, works very well.

 

[CAS79]

Is working well.

Only the demolished grand stand at the SCG means there are no camera's near one of the goals and this year almost all at that end are going to go to umpires call as we saw on Sunday.

 

[Soul_Pie]

They need some proper cameras and maybe some sensors to actually give a proper decision. If you're going to bring a system in, don't half arse it.

No point in relying on seven's cameras, they can't even catch the general play.

This did happen.

With the first one, the voiceover said the vision was inconclusive and the original decision should stand.

 

[Underarm]

it works well, though the angles being used to make decisions arent ideal.....

 

[anti_]

the blair one at the end...the ball definitely hit his shin then ricochetted upwards into the side of his knee...then into the goal. i'm certain of that from the reverse angle.

if the ball hits your knee last, is that a goal? i thought only below the knee constituted a kick.

either way it's knit-picking i guess.

It's not a goal, but I don't agree with your version of events. Imo, the front angle clearly shows the ball moving away from his leg before it reaches the height of his knee.

This.

The field umpire in communication should clearly state the initial decision, if the video replay is inconclusive than they stick to that call.

 

[brendan84]

The correct decisions were made today.

 

[seanoff]

that obviously happened before we got the audio. the umpires seemed to know exactly what was going on and what the initial decision was.

 

[Rod Stroker]

That bloke sounds like a stalker or a kiddie fiddler.

What irks me is that they had 5 different camera angles for that review in the 3rd quarter and yet they still couldn't make a clear decision. What a farce!
