A lopsided AFL grand final free kick count and a questionable high tackle decision to Clay Smith has angered fans on social media.

At three-quarter-time, the Western Bulldogs had recieved 15 free kicks to Sydney's four - with a discrepancy of this size highly unusual.
Usually winning contested ball statistics or being tackled more leads to more free kicks, but both categories were relatively even between the two sides at the last change.
A free kick given against Daniel Hannebery for high contact on Clay Smith drew scrutiny, with the Swans midfielder making incidental contact as the Bulldog small forward fell to the ground.
Watch the controversial free kick in the video above.
Smith converted the goal to put the Bulldogs back in front at the 19th minute mark of the third quarter.
The outcry on social media was obvious, despite most neutrals wanting the success-starved Bulldogs to win the game.
This has been the worst umpiring of the season... #AFLGF
