The boundary throw in clears the rucks and heads straight to a Carlton player who understandably goes for the ball. Free kick and goal to the Bulldogs.
Was pointed out by Mel Hickey that the umps told them if the boundary umpire effectively throws directly to another player, they are entitled to hit the ball.
Basically saying the umps got it 100% wrong.
Not sure you can blame the rule for that, more the umps.
