Why didn't the emergency umpire do anything about it ?

All Port has done is break the rules rather deliberately. That's usually called cheating.
Having extra personnel on the oval 'coaching' players and giving instructions by cheating to gain an unfair advantage over their opponents might be called match fixing.
Any club anywhere in any league caught match fixing would be demoted but as there is no pyramidal system with promotion or relegation in the SANFL the only real option is to suspend them from the league for the remainder of the season.
This of course would lead to an unfair advantage to the Adelaide Crows who would have the opportunity to develop players through the reserve team with extra coaching and instruction. Any team that gains an unfair advantage over its opponents might be considered to be match fixing.

Problem solved.
It isn't rocket science.

Also do we need a thread dedicates to Port lies? Just read Kane Cornes is retiring . Didn't the coach say he would mange him to play out the year ? The same coach who said Butcher is an AFL standard player ?
Oh and Rising Power .................how do you know the reserves umpire was not informed of the extra person on the field who should not be in the game mentioned.

Would it really, or would Port see the fact that Wilson is out there coaching the players far more beneficial than any free kicks it might cost them?

One would think that Port's play book was especially simple to commit to memory:
Opposition has the ball: go the knuckle
Marking attempt in defensive lines: go the knuckle
Ruck contest: go the knuckle
etc...

Quite complex compared to the one used at Brighton Road.
In all instances - be shit at what you do.
