Have the AFL considered sitting me behind the goal with an esky or even just ringing me if there's any contentious goal umpiring decision to be made?
I'm never wrong and I don't charge much.

Don't dismiss me, we've come up with an idea at the pub.
Have a fat drunk on each goal post, we look at each other and give the nod, then while the crowd is looking at us in anticipation we crack open a Sparkling Ale if it's a goal or a Pale Ale if it's a point.
(Insert other beers if needed)
Imagine the advertising revenue potential too. And better and quicker decisions, everyone's a winner!

This would have been awesome to watch 40 years ago when the scores were 29.16 to 23.19 :D

Bizarre, isn’t it :shock: Melbourne and Sydney both looked terrible going forward, then change their whole game style in last quarter and nearly pinch the game. Play like that the whole game FFS :evil:
