DRAMA at Marvel as North and Swans go down to the wire

[@SIB-1973]

Unbelievable game. The way both teams have fought throughout this season have been mind blowing, personally I think that North Melbourne deserved the win, but I won’t get controversial, because the afl is already controversial enough.

[@imalwaysright]

Lost on the scoreboard, but we saw George Wardlaw debut and Sheezel carving it up. They are the future of the Ross 🔥🔥🔥 I thought Roos were capable of beating the Swans. They played with a lot of heart and effort. To have it ripped away- Hopefully they can keep building for the remainder of the season.

[@TigerTime3672]

Not a game the swans would want look to back at but a win's a win. I know that this has already been mentioned but this ending reminds me when Motlop gave away a free kick near the very end of that game.

Will take it, we desperately needed a win to keep our season alive

@@frustralia4293 I know. North made a 77th interchange after the McLean goal. Sydney should of got another free and 50. Discraceful robbery of Sydney's extra goal. North given the armchair ride by the umps again.

Why is the interchange limit a rule, what does it bring to a game

[@Neva2Soon]

This ranks up there with Motlop giving away the free on the siren, Alir Alir’s game winning goal. I have to go back to the 1996 grand final and reminisce about David King sliding in cleats first into the prone Sydney players face as a fond memory of playing the Swans or Archers milestone at the SCG when Corey Jones kicked the match winner after being 40 points down at 3qtr time

Bit rough to enjoy that I reckon but ah well.

Even when the title doesn’t spoil the outcome the way it’s formatted makes it hard to find the videos. Searching “North Melbourne Sydney 2023” logged out the official game highlights didn’t appear even while scrolling through 20 plus videos. I’m assuming the goal is to increase views, a cursory glance at last year’s highlights seems to show that views have not increased substantially under the new title format and we’re about halfway through the season. Very odd.

[@jordisalavert1912]

People complaining about the rule are just plain stupid. The rule is there for a reason to prevent teams from being able to just swap player in and out as they please. Quit crying cause north can’t count 😂

[@TigerTime3672]

The roos have not beaten the swans at Marvel since 2007

[@BadgerFromOz]

This game could've gone either way, both teams leading by at least a couple of goals at various stages and both teams were in desperate need of a win. If Sydney had lost this one, this would've been the second time this season where a top 8 team from last year lost five in a row. Two weeks in a row where Sydney played a virtual Elimination Final in May. The Kangaroos have now lost eight straight.

buddy celebrating the way he did was so disrespectful, not a deserved win at all stop screaming champ.

This was so embarrassing as a swans fsn

[@petermcculloch4933]

Apparently Sydney have a staff member who counts opposition interchanges and reports mistakes to match officials.I hope the club I support does not do anything as low as that.

[@athlonen]

And who said it wasn't the emergency umpire calling that? In short, you don't know who reported what, so it's best to remain quiet until the truth of the matter comes out.

[@cmadelaide56]

The old ‘apparently’. Apparently some people will believe anything if involves a club they don’t support.

[@talram3347]

Yeah hope your club actively doesn’t follow the rules, good stuff champ

[@kovaci0000007]

"Apparently" bahahaha 🤡

[@petermcculloch4933]

The incident has received a lot of press.A swans staff member reported the offence, however, the appropriate people were already aware of what happened.As for my club, I like to think they leave officiating to the umpires and other AFL personnel.

[@imalwaysright]

Did the interchange infringement even impact the game? I think the Roos quickly realised it and corrected. It was a heat of the battle accident. Players were cooked. If only those grubby Sydney players/officials didn’t snitch on them 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@jordisalavert1912]

So they are grubby for pointing out a north breaking a rule 😂 mate stop being bias if north didn’t break the rules they would have won but it’s their own fault they lost
