I watched it again today. Carey was standing sideways, as was Schauble in front of him. Carey basically marked it over Schauble. Certainly not 100% definite over the line, but much more than 50%.

OK, I'll give you 60%
and as I said it would've been nice to have had it go our way anyway.
The real killers were the frees they got in their forward 50, would've been nice to see for e.g. Micky get one for getting dragged down in the 2nd by Hart.Comment

The ridiculous free kick to Perrie...

If you think that every player in the caper exept Carey would have put the ball down and ran to his position you are in another world. Every player and I mean every player would have played on and kicked the goal if it means the diffrence between winning and loosing. Carey is not a cheat because everyone in the AFL would have played on and kicked the goal. How is Carey to know the ball had passed the line he is not the goal umpire he is mearly just watching the ball and trying to get the ball and not worried about if its over the line.Originally posted by TheHood
What really steams up my boiler room is that Wayne Carey is such a dishonest person! Not just a dishonest player but a dishonest person.
As that ball sailed through for a point, almost all league players would have simply caught the ball, put it down and ran back to position for the Swan's kick-in.
Most people who don't have an ingrained dishonesty would not have contemplated a blatant cheating move. That is why Wayne Carey is a hated man. I can't bring myself to sing his praises after that performance. I don't blame the umpire (completely), Carey lied and cheated.
Wayne crushed his wife's trust and now he has crushed mine!

It was silly by TheHodd to mix somebody's private life whit what is happening on the field anyway. Carey did the right thing to kick that goal make no mistake about that. Every player with the right state of mind would do that. It is up to the umps to make the right call whether or not that was a goal.

We didn't lose the game because of that incident. We lost it because we didn't convert our 3rd quarter dominance into more points on the board. Even if that had been paid as a point, the Crows would still have been in front. Who's to say what would have happened from there. The ball would have started from a kick-in, rather than the centre. Maybe Kennelly would still have kicked a goal, maybe not. Everything that happened from that point onwards would have been different.
We lost the game. No great drama given that most of us expected it to happen. We also found out for sure that this is a very good team that we have the honour of supporting, and if they're good enough, this won't be terminal as far as this season is concerned.Comment

Or you could argue that we lost it in the 2nd qtr with the breeze and let Adelaide get too far away, or we didn't do enough early in the 4th qtr with the breeze and the momentum. I agree that we didn't lose because of that incident, but in a game decided by less than a goal, a number of key incidents were pretty critical... and annoying!!Originally posted by lizz

Who really cares if the ball was over the line or not, the most important person thought it wasn't over the line and frankly thats where it ends for me because I won't lower myself to the level of Collingwood fans and blame that one single moment cost us the game because it didn't, our 2nd Quarter did.Once was, now elsewhereComment

Of course that call by some dubious SA umpire matters. The game is won by less than a goal. Sydney was full of running in the final quarter. Crows were 4 pts in front with about 2.30 mins to go. Calling it a goal effectively killed the game, Sydney did not have enough time to manufacture 2 goals... we almost did. Had that been a point Sydney would have run out of defence instead of getting a bounce clogged up in centre square and wasted even more time. We were definitely better in the last quarter.
I know whinging won't win the game back but at least you get it out of your system.
