Was that up the southern end? It grazed the post as it passed. Only grazed it, mind you it should've been enough for Raboyle and his mates behind the goals to have seen it, which judging by their reactions, they didn't lol
I wouldn't mind clearing this one up as there was plenty of agro behind the southern goals when this happened. The general feeling behind the goals was that the goal umpire thought it had gone through for a point...when everyone, including me, though it had atleast gone through between the big sticks. Correct me if i'm wrong but the goal umpire never signalled it had hit the post...he consulted with the field umpire before giving a point...
Also, I know it's trivial but that OOBOTF paid against Sturt 5 minutes into the 3rd quarter was in by half a metre. I was walking around the fence in the outer and was in a reasonable position to see it...
