Aren't the callers/commentators from the executive? Surely they should be able to dismiss any inconsistencies/errors immediately.
My guess is that they won't want to set a precedence and will back down (sticking with the umpire's decision) even though they know the actual result.
Who was awarded the mystery goal (if true)? Wouldn't want to be the bloke it was given to. I could guarantee there is not a footy player in the country who loses count of how many goals they have kicked for the day.

I am positive the ol boys will stick together again and never let the truth get in the way Another skeleton to be added to the ever increasing closet...what is the total amount of years in age between the callers 160+
The Yetti wrote:You are correct. The Goal Umpires scorecards are official. Umpires are always right and I have always respected that. Tested me more than ever.......only because I am sure someone is being dishonest. What really disappoints me is that it seems Victor Harbor has found an extra goalkicker. Spoke to Ian Basham and he is sure that Victor never hit the front, while Grant Levi was pretty flippant about it saying that we lost but we won and you won but lost. Has winning become that important in country football
Yetti; do the umpires signal to the scoreboard "scores correct" at every break?
Yes. It is protocol. would be times when it is not done of course
Simple fact of the matter. The goal umpires were wrong. No need to dance around the issue. The League know, Both Clubs know, the goal umpires know.....So GSFL please fix it Yea we can make it so it doesn't happen again by getting the goal umpires and timekeepers to sign off 4 scorecards But it doesn't make Saturday's result correct At the end of round 18 we look at the ladder and Victor is top on percentage instead of 4th and win the flag is a possibility Over and out on this issue I don't need another heart attack

I kicked 6 twice and lost count both times I feel sorry for the secretary and team manager of Victor who had to continue the trail of mistruths when putting the scores on sporting pulse and then a phantom goalkicker, and then our League secretary doing the same thing when filing the scorecards and then the umpires who have to speak to the umpires coach. One error of judgement (probably by the goal umpire who marked a goal instead of a point and convinced the other goal umpire to agree with him) has compromised the credibility of more and more people, eventually to League President
Bad luck unfortunately. Brings back memories of the 2011 b grade second semi. That time Mclaren were on the receiving end of a mysterious point after teams went to positions for extra time. 1 goal umpire had an extra point, which you'd think someone else at the ground would have picked up in an elimination Final. Everyone that day knows that game was a draw but it's not recorded as one

I like it LF... Surprised Vale even care about their A Grade result... won't be long before they start stacking their B Grade for a tilt at another finals failure

Not having a go at McLaren, just saying that its rare but it has happened before. Just a coincidence that they were on the right end last time I can recall it. If it was one of the Far South clubs, it wouldn't be "sorted" by now, because it never got "sorted" for us. Its done!

Yetti you are too nice....All parties concerned have lied to cover up 1 mistake!
Scores wrong.... goal umps mistake Extra Goal kicker...VICTOR team manager has lied
For Christ sake get it right we don't need to go back in years past to dig up old bones do we. Its done they wont look at it let alone change it, I feel sorry for a club that's struggling to win a game then they win one only to be ripped off

Qtr by Qtr scores on Sporting Pulse have Victor only kicking 2 goals in the 3rd quarter.
If the goal umpires involved are adamant that they were right and the powers to be know for a fact that they are wrong then they should be suspended from goal umpiring indefinitely.
Well done to all parties concerned. GSFL, Umpires Association, VHFC, MFC. A very thorough and professional review headed by the GSFL Final scores MFC 11-7 defeated VHFC 10-10
Well controlled Yetti. I understand your passion was probably testing your sportsmanship at times. I said nothing because Mclaren had every right to be upset. Whilst putting the rules into question could open Pandora's box, if it was proved both goal umpires were wrong then the right outcome has prevailed. Pity some others aren't as fair minded as you.

Great outcome achieved by reviewing factual evidence by the sound of it. Cant beleive it was sorted this quick. Great work by all involved. Shame on the team manager if he tried to cheat...
