If the ball goes outside the circle at a centre bounce, the umpires call it back and throw it up again so one side isn't advantaged. 

Why not the same for boundary throw-ins? 

That half-arsed throw-in yesterday cost us a goal. It should have been called back. 

What if it had happened late in the game of a tight final?

You are talking common sense and the AFL, Grape. That is an oxymoron.

i have seen them call it back for a re-throw, can only assume in this case it didn't reach the (umpire's) threshold whatever that is

i thought it should have been recalled, but then i would

yes I saw that.

No where near the rucks but straight into the arms of a  Saints rover for a goal.

There was also a mark by Riewoldt at least 1 metre over the boundary as well an another paid to the saints.

These maggots are constantly messing up my enjoyment of the game.

Also a half volley to Roo called a mark,then tackled then paid 50 as the player tackling thought rightfully that it was a play on.(in 1st Quarter)

Also they made a point of f*&king Jack Watts all day .

They need bashing.

I've seen haymakers thrown that went further than that throw in. They would've been too embarrassed to bring it back after a goal.

And that ump who paid the half volley mark to Roo should take up the free test offer by OPSM.

I think the rule should be that no player can take possession of the ball from a boundary throw-in. This stops dreadful throw-ins from resulting in clean possessions.
