What sort of penalty Seb Guilhaus will get for publicly stating the umpiring was rigged by the SANFL? Pretty heavy stuff possibly warranting deregistering and possibly even a law suit with that sort of defamation.

Agree SANFL have set the rules are they are in black and white. North failed to comply by having too many players on the ground. Eagles didn't follow the correct process. Play on.
I'd favour cacelling any scores by North in that period. It is their responsibility to get their player management right regardless of technical and procedural debate above.

Yep, the interchange steward obviously cheated, so did the 2 sitting on the bench, SURELY they wondered where the 3rd player was??

What happens if they were defending the lead and didn't/not try to score? How do you quantify that?

The 1.3 that North scored would have added some time on to the game and being that the Eagles scored a goal with only seconds remaining do we then discount that goal?

The two on the bench were injured werent they? May have been receiving treatment, or down in the rooms and not noticed

Would be a popular choice I'd say, considering an attacking advantage for that period. Perhaps an additional scoring penalty might apply considering that there was a potential effect on the opponent's ability to score as well Food for thought.
Through a friend that was listening to the ABC this morning, I heard that the Eagles only became aware of the extra man when C7 alerted them to it. Can anyone confirm this? Not sure if it's already been mentioned.
