John Longmire has given a blunt assessment of the controversial AFL score review system, saying it is “clearly not” good enough.
Last month, the AFL apologised after an Adelaide goal was disallowed against Sydney when replays showed the ball did not hit the post.Adelaide fans will undoubtedly talk of karma after two Sydney goals were denied on review in the Swans’ 11.8 to 9.14 Blues wingman Blake Acres made a desperate lunge in the goal square during the third term and again in the last.
He also ruefully noted Sydney’s contrasting score review fortunes when he hoped for changes to the system.“We spend a fair bit trying to get things right at club land.”St Kilda forward Tim Membrey has been ruled out of Saturday’s elimination final against Greater Western Sydney due to a personal health matter.
“St Kilda Football Club has this morning confirmed with the AFL and the GWS Giants the late omission of Tim Membrey for today’s elimination final,” the statement said.“Membrey is currently receiving appropriate care and treatment due to a personal health matter.“Tim’s health and wellbeing is our primary concern and the club asks that Tim and the Membrey family’s privacy is respected at this time.
