Game needs to be simplified. Kick the ball through the big sticks goal. If it hits the post or if its touched still a goal. Mark a touched ball shouldn’t be play on either. Crazy to think how much the umps struggle when there is so many of them compared to your days

According to Twitter nuffys, Hawkins has that shot after the siren in the GF with scores tied, and Geelong dont win - but if he missed the goal by three metres they do. Good one guys #deadsetidiots #apologiesthankSam

Do u mean touched ok too - or just talking about hit the post? If the later then agree - if it touches a padded part of the post on the way in, who GAF?

Once again.... sid bouzek

Agree!

I think do away with “hit the post”. What Sam said, if it goes between the big sticks, whether off a post or not, it’s a goal. If the ball hits the post and rebounds back into play, play on!

Spot on Sammy. Hopefully common sense prevails in this game one day

Yep. Agree but would they change the rule. I don’t think so.

Why is Sam the only person who has common sense in football?. You should take the big chair Sam.

Agree that makes sense, but I do wonder what all the carry on is about. Same as last night. In your day, Sammy, you reckon anyone would given a toss about either of those decisions? It's only the fact that they highlight it that creates the outrage/controversy. #leavetheumpsalone
