I can't believe (well, this is the AFL, so, ok, I can) that the AFL is being allowed to sweep this under the carpet so easily.
A team has been eliminated from the finals because of a dodgy decision. You know, in any normal situation this would be an issue. But apparently not.
I reckon the very fact they are completely unwilling to look at the issue is harming their brand, but given that the AFL is reviled I suppose it won't do much harm.
As I said earlier, the behaviour you walk past is the behaviour you accept. So, everyone in the industry is fine with dodgy decisions knocking a team out of the finals? Doesn't say much for the industry does it?
