There wasnt enough made of that.  They should have shown that replay from 5 different angles.   It looked like he bounced it up to himself, while under pressure from 2 blokes,  then jetted away and threw it on the left, from 45 out......  should be up there for goal of the year

Sadly, I don’t think the cameras caught the action as well as they should have.  I have seen it from three angles and how Charlie did it isn’t very clear.  That may limit the goal of the year chances.

Walsh's shoulder/body hits Dangers leg accentuating his head hitting the ground. I think he might get off. Pay the free and move on.

Doesn’t really matter; Dangerfield pinned Walsh’s arms and the tackle forced his head into the turf.

The only way he gets off is aging superstar discount.

Did the umpire call play on though?

The umpire raised both hands, absolutely.
The umpire raises both hands to signify the end of the quarter though.

If the umpire calls plays on, they lift both arms up in front of them in a similar fashion, but it a more sweeping action.

The 'signal' from the umps is being misinterpreted IMO.
BT says, "umpire has called play on, goal has been kicked, what's the decision".

lol.....BT says lots of things. Whether they are true or not is like throwing a dart at the dartboard.

I've watched it, multiple times. I listened to BT call it live, and back over it afterwards.
I have no faith in him understanding the nuances of what i've described, and even if he does, he won't admit fault.

So, besides BT, is anyone able to show that the umpire called 'play on' because honestly, i don't think he did.

I reckon BT saw the umpire's arms raised for end of quarter and misinterpreted the situation.  I didn't think Cameron ran too far off the line anyway. 
This is now the longest premiership drought in the history of the Carlton Football Club - more evidence of climate change?

Absolutely.

BT thought he saw something, didn't realise it was something else and ran with it.
As mentioned, i haven't heard anyone else say the umpire called play on, just BT.

As for Cameron running too far offline....thats debateable. TBH, i don't care one way or another. I'd prefer it to happen in a game we win by 10 goals than in a close one.

He looked pretty straight running to me too.

Not sure what all the fuss is about.  Mcgoverb turns to his left as well to accentuate it a little.

Several commentators, Dwayne Russell for example, have said that Cameron played on but I haven't heard anyone say that the umpire called "play on". 

Looking at the replay, it is clear that BT confused the "time" signal for "play on".  It also seems pretty clear that McGovern is demonstrating why it should have been "play on" rather than "dead ball".  The umpire's position, 90 degrees to Cameron's run up, meant that he wouldn't have been able to see whether Cameron played on. 

Players are allowed their "natural arc" and I'm not sure whether Cameron was deliberately improving the angle and kicking around McGovern or following his normal goal kicking action.

The error, if there was one, was not calling "play on" rather than giving the "all clear" as I mistakenly posted previously.

Watching the game, my wife steap in the room to watch some of the footy with me, bang the Cowman kicks a goal. Wife "why are they booing him" Me "no babe thats not a boo thats a Mooooooooooooo" AND did you know Carlton kick the most goals from free kicks. Is that because A) Other teams cannot kick straight or B) I am now convinced when BRIAN commentates he and the rest cannot say one good thing about us when we are winning, plenty when we are losing

Taylor doesn't like Carlton much like Luke Darcy and the excitement in his voice when we are struggling makes me turn the sound off and go with radio commentary.

We were behind the punt road end goals level two with a clear view of the line of the kick, Cameron ran way off line if you ask me. Geelong supporters in the box behind me were pissing themselves laughing about it. Academic at the end of the day but if it was the last kick of the night to decide the game (or a final), I'm tipping many on here would have had aneurysms.
