The AFL's contentious score review system has again come under fire with two incidents in today's Melbourne-Port Adelaide clash at the MCG

THE AFL's contentious score review system created confusion at the MCG today when Jay Schulz was surprisingly paid a mark he seemed to take over the goal line.
The Power forward launched over a pack and cleanly reeled in a screamer on his chest, before the umpires called for a review and deemed the mark should stand.

The ball was headed for a Port goal regardless, but later in the same quarter Melbourne mirrored the situation when recruit Cam Pedersen took a mark awkwardly close to the goal line.

The umpires then checked whether he completed it in play and if the ball hit the post, before awarding Pedersen a shot at goal, which he converted.
It followed a bizarre ruling in the Dogs-Lions clash yesterday, when Jack Redden appeared to dribble through a goal from the square only to have a behind given.
The umpires went upstairs for several minutes before ruling the ball was touched.
The league brought in the system just before the start of last season and it has suffered teething problems, with very few decisions able to be overturned due to a lack of conclusive vision.
