prospective from someone whos not a fan of either team it looks like handball to me. Makes it more convincing when his hand is the only thing between it continuing into the box and the fact that arms been spreed like that. Sucks for them but comes down to the training of your players to tuck there arms around the box if you want to avoid pens like this.
@joereynolds5476 and yet the best defenders do. At the end of the day all the people moaning that it's not a handball re the same people who moan that is when it benefits there team. The refs are at least fairly consistent in the fact that if the ball hits an out stretch arm its and stops the ball from creating a goal chance they give handball. Go back 2 or so weeks in the league you can find a defender who was standing on the line who stopped a goal as it hit upper chest and top of the arm but no handball since he did have the intelligence to tuck his arms as far back as you can behind his back.
@@cijj84 It's the interpretation that's wrong. That's why they put their arms behind their backs, when they shouldn't have to. By the laws of the game that's not a "position which is a consequence of body movement". Stopping a ball on the goal line by a hand isn't necessarily an offence. Let's see some common sense here and stop penalising accidental handball with arms in natural positions.
@@joereynolds5476 Not saying its in the rules, its just what good defenders to to avoid accidental handballs, as for natural position, it is defined as hands by your side so the moment you stretch your hand out like the defender did here you run the risk of that call. For all the bitching people do its been fairly consistent to that ruling and based off that then yes this is a handball. I've seen cases where the defenders arm is at his side and they have not called it but I'm sure you can find one or two cases where refs did call handball which is where the defender having the intelligence to tuck away can save you a goal form a bad decision. If you think you have it rough i'm sure i can find cases of handball that would be far more controversial than this one but the ruling was made to be handball based off the same rule so stop moaning just because you defender got a bit unlucky and accidentally got a handball.
Have to make sure your home games are well attended first, before you try and ape other leagues initiatives. Who in Sydney is going to see WUN games for instance , they don’t even have fans in Victoria
The Jets got ripped off by the referee. The 2-2 was from a corner that was wrongly awarded and the penalty was given for handball which came from a deflection off his leg.
It’s the round when fans unite not to attend the matches. As evidenced by the empty stands. Come to think of it, every A-League round is a unite round.
@@ngaugefouroaksstreetstatio6932 would look like a stupid decision not to award it, if the ball did not hit his out stretched hand it was heading into the box. Decent defenders tuck in their arms to if it does hit the ref can say they did all the could to prevent contact.
Yes i agree but my point is about the rule in the way it is interpreted, to me it made more sense when it was about "hand to ball" as opposed to someone who is 40 cm from a player and the ball just hits them ie not a deliberate hand ball. @@cijj84
"Unnatural Position" to be deemed a handball?
Very controversial penalty there!

@@cijj84 They shouldn't have to put their arms in unnatural positions just because referees don't know what is a natural position.

I thought the deflection rule is just EPL
@@ZaneTaylorMusic I thought it was worldwide as per a FIFA direction. The Jets missed out on a penalty like that last season.
What is 'unite round'.

Basically like premier leagues super Sunday , every team just plays across 2 days in Sydney, but yeah no one goes to the non Sydney games 💀
@publius1252 facts man moat clubs can't get enough fans at home games so it's such a stupid thing to do
@@publius1252You're obsessed with people in the grandstands. What sport do you actually support??
Fake crowd noise is funny
Came here for this comment. Kind of embarrassing haha
another stupid penalty decision, soon players will be having their arms amputated.
Stupid how lol, so much hand on that ball he might as well have thrown it 😂😂
Not disputing it hit is hand but it's another demonstration of how ridiculous the rule has become./ @@basedpaul
