K Rock Football | Bell Post Hill is back in the GDFNL top five after members of the league executive today overturned the result of Saturday’s one-point loss to Belmont Lions at Winter Reserve.

The Panthers disputed the outcome after claiming a goal it kicked during the second quarter through milestone man Caleb Bacely was incorrectly added to the Lions’ score.

It was included on Bell Post Hill’s tally a short time later but not removed from the Belmont Lions’ score, resulting in a 19.7 (121) to 18.12 (120) victory for the home team on the day.

Video evidence and the data from the game following coding by the GDFNL’s statistical partner Premier Data found the final score to be in the Panthers’ favour, 18.11 (119) to 18.7 (115)

President Neville Whitley confirmed the decision to K rock Football late this afternoon, referring to Rule 27 in the competition’s rules: “the League has the sole discretion to deal with and settle all disputes received by Clubs”.
