I'm probably on my Pat Malone, but I agreed with that "contentious" score review. I don't know how anyone can call that sort of sketchy evidence conclusive.
So you're saying you didn't think the fingers moved violently at the exact moment the ball went past them?

Happy to see the Pies lose. The more dramatic the circumstances the better.

The fingers moved. It was touched clearly.
The curse is dead.

By violently I meant quickly and in an uncontrolled way due to the force of something, but probably not the right word to use.
Did you see the fingers move at the exact time the ball passed them at all?

Re: 2019 AFL Finals Series
If that was contentious, how about the Collingwood goal that was overruled on less conclusive evidence?

That looked touches to me too.

OK, so you did see the fingers move? If so, why do you think they moved? Because fingers just suddenly move backwards I suppose?
The ball clearly touched the elbow of the GWS player on the goal line.

No I didn't. It clearly touched his elbow, it wasn't clear that it was on or before the line.

So you saw the fingers stay still, or something in between moving and staying still?
It probably sounds like I'm being difficult, I'm not, rather I'm just trying to understand what you did see now that we know what you didn't see.

Didn't see movement. Did you see the other one clearly touched on or before the line?

Yes, as that was not the focus of the review after the first couple of replays in the review process as the ball was clearly in play.

You can watch it again here if you like. Unfortunately you have to listen to SEN in the process.

Re: 2019 AFL Finals Series
Good on them they toughed it out and got the reward. I've got new respect for them, they're doing an us 2016 this finals series.
But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.
