AFL: Mark Robinson said the AFL's explanation of a non-call for a 50m penalty in the North v Pies game is treating fans 'like children'
The AFL’s interpretation of an umpire’s call to not reward North Melbourne with a 50- metre penalty in the dying stages of their match against Collingwood has led to Fox Footy experts taking aim at both the league and the response of its General Manager.
Watch every game of every round this Toyota AFL Premiership Season LIVE with no ad-breaks during play on Kayo. New to Kayo?, journalists Gerald Whateley and Mark Robinson were vehemently against the response from Kane and its body, labelling it as “codswallop” among several other terms. “At no stage in the history of the game and in the future of the game, can players assume that a player has played on. That explanation doesn’t, doesn’t cut it.”, the uproar has been unlike any seen since Ben Keays’ infamous ‘point’ kicked last year against Sydney when the league’s goal review system came under fire.
“It does nothing to help us have faith in the way that the game is being umpired if we’re going to search for little technicalities and isolation to justify a decision.” The Kangaroos were on the end of more than one questionable call during Sunday’s one-point loss to the Magpies “The AFL is allowed to say they’re wrong; just say ‘Hey, we got it wrong on the weekend’ – take us along, don’t treat us like we’re fools, and that’s what I think is happening at the moment.
