Anderson to headline Comedy Festival

On the AFL’s own website in relation to video referral:

 

Anderson said introduction of a tennis-style challenge system was unlikely.

"The problem with the challenge is the potential for manipulation or (for it) to be used to delay."

 

And then . . .


But he said he didn't see a problem with umpires listening to players who called immediately for a review. 

"A player can be a valuable indication that there's something worth having a look at, as long as they let the guys do their job once they've made the point," Anderson said.

To quote John McEnroe, “YOU CANNOT BE SERIOUS!!!”

 

Just which bit of “potential for manipulation” does he think doesn’t apply if umpires listen to players’ appeals for review?
