Not so much the system, but the instruction from the AFL.
You know after last years debacle they would have instructed the goal umpires to review everything they feel is a close decision.
That said, I cannot believe the one above got reviewed.
i would say hes less than 20cm away from that footy, play that at full speed from the goal umpires view and its not as easy or straight forward as the still picture shows. Having said that i hate reveiws and the umpire should just make a call. If its right, great, if its wrong so is another 50 decisions on the day and we dont review them
