That's crap.
A mistake made by a coach is less worrysome than a mistake made by an umpire.
If there is no recourse for the AFL due to outdated rules, then so be it.
They should change the rules - there has certainly been recent occasions that should have brought this issue to head.
As for Jolly, the Swans are saying that he was taken of as he was the closest player when they realised.
Maybe he wasn't the player who was supposed to come off.
I think we should all be looking at what White 'did' rather than what Jolly 'did'
White was the extra man who wandered on when there were already 18 players on the field.
And he didn't impact on the game.

No. The way I understand the interchange system works the player wanting to come on lodges his intent with the interchange official and who he is replacing. The official notes the names and times in his record. So officially Jolly was to come off, so when White goes on Jolly should not be out there. White seemed to go on early but Jolly is the 19th man officially, and I understand that this what the record says.Does God believe in Atheists?Comment

There is at least one Rugby League (Sydney Competition) precedence. Back in 1975 in Round 15, Western Suburbs had a 7 all draw with Canterbury. One interchange Wests player was found to be wrongly on the field, leaving 14 men against 13. The result was that Wests was stripped of its' one point for the draw, This had a later impact on the finals, where Wests were forced to play a playoff for a finals spot, lost the playoff, and consequently missed out of playing finals football.Comment

Pressure on the kicker and fatigue? You may have noticed that Campbell also failed to make the distance from about 25 metres in the last quarter. Both teams had played themselves to a virtual stanstill.Bevo bandwagon driverComment
