Re: AFL Game Day R23 2023
I don't know if it was a goal or a point.
And - as my missus tells me, I am the first person to say: "The umpire is RIGHT THERE. Why does this need a review...".
But I wish they reviewed it. The 'moment' (late goal to win) is what cost Adelaide - they were celebrating and unable to defend the kick in...I didn't think that was very fair. Whether it hit the post or not, the players were clearly not aware of it and given the circumstances it didn't seem reasonable for Adelaide to be penalised because the outcome to the shot on goal was different to what they had assumed.
Should they have paid attention? I guess...but the MOMENT got to them...I didn't like it.
What should I tell her? She's going to ask.
