An interchange blunder in the dying stages cost North Melbourne<\/a> dearly in its three-point loss to Sydney.<\/p>\n

With less than two minutes left in the match and North Melbourne up by three points, Brett Ratten's side had used 74 of its permitted 75 interchanges.<\/p>\n

North player Liam Shiels came off the field with cramp issues along with Will Phillips, which meant the club had used 76 rotations, which led to a penalty.<\/p>\n

The rules state the interchange steward report the violation to a field umpire and that the field umpire will stop play "at the first available opportunity".<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

That opportunity occurred inside Sydney's forward 50 with 59 seconds remaining.<\/p>\n

A free kick and 50 metre penalty was awarded to Hayden McLean, which resulted in a set shot from the top of the goal square, and he slotted it home to score a strange victory.<\/p>\n

"Very unusual set of circumstances with the game paused like that and the umpire clearly talking to someone through his head set," Nick Dal Santo said on Fox Footy.<\/p>\n

"It feels like there's a fair bit of confusion. "That's the first time I've ever seen the cap go over and therefore be penalised.<\/p>\n

"I wouldn't be shocked if the majority of players on the field have no idea what the last free kick was for."<\/p>\n

Interim Kangaroos coach Brett Ratten did not want pour furl on the fire after the match.<\/p>\n

"We'll have a look at it during the week and work out how we can do some things better but we're not going to worry about that we had our chances," he said.<\/p>\n

"So, we'll have a look and review it and see if we can get better \u2026 there's sometimes chat about we're getting close, but there's nothing from a senior coach's point of view where I'm looking at the interchanges, no we leave that to the bench."<\/p>\n

Sydney Swans coach John Longmire: "I had no idea what was going on," he said.<\/p>\n

"I genuinely had no idea what the free kick and 50 was paid for it wasn't until afterwards someone told me after the siren had gone."<\/p>\n
