It is a WOW moment. How a supposedly proffesional league can allow a team that was actively playing an extra man on field into a grand final at the expense of the opposition is mind blowing. If current rules are not adequate, at the very least a rematch should be called.

there are comentators with the opinion as north adelaide didnt do it 'on purpose' it wasnt cheating.

i disagree, having an extra player on the field is cheating no matter if it was planned.

not only did noth score 8 points during the period they had the extra player who knows had he not been out there could woddville west torrens have scored? but that extra guy ment the north team was able to defend better.

 

i support neither of these teams, i just want a game of fairness that follows rules, playing an extra man regardless of how it happened was breaking a rule.

end of story, north adelaide should be disqualified from the result.

 

i really hope norwood kick them off the ground in the grand final

i dont support norwood either. well not normally but i'll make an exception this weekend!
