• napping in first half
• slogging our guts out to claw back to a winnable position only to then hand back momentum with utterly ridiculous skill and judgement errors

It was well after the siren ... see the link for the rule and how it was applied

That score cannot stand.

Relevant rules
The relevant clauses of the official AFL rules are:

"10.4.1 The timekeepers shall sound the siren to signal the end of a quarter until a field umpire acknowledges that the siren has been heard and brings play to an end."
and

"10.4.2 Play in each quarter shall come to an end when any one of the field umpires hears the signal."
Most commentators agree that the timekeepers erred with respect to Rule 10.4.1; that is, the siren did not continue to sound until it was formally acknowledged by an umpire. Acknowledgement of the siren requires any one of the three field umpires to raise both arms into the air and blow the whistle. There remains some doubt as to whether any of the three umpires did hear the siren, but in any event, none chose to bring play to an end as required by Rule 10.4.2. This rule is not well known by football fans and clearly states that the umpires are the sole judge of when a quarter ends. However, generally this is in terms of a split second decision as to whether a mark or kick occurred before or after the siren sounded, rather than the 25 seconds difference in this case.

Then the rule must be changed don't you think?  That's a potential  disaster waiting to happen fly

While Jonesy and Weiters held their big guys admirably, the small forward kicks 4 and catch this.... lays 14 tackles.

We desperately need one of those!
