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.

But what if it was called a point???? Who knows what would of happened. Who knows we might of stuffed the kick in and let Adelaide kick a goal anyway.

That was my question too.

Do goal umpires get moved around interstate like the others or are they locals? And if so does that apply in the finals too?

Boundaries & goals are locals for H&A.

"Best available" for Finals.

In fact, a Sydney Local goal-umped the AFL Grand Final a couple of years back!

Don't tempt it, probably end up with a Swans final match
