Baker elected to cancel his previous behind, and the goal umpires crossed their flags to officially signal this, returning the score to 94–93. Baker then took a set shot at goal from 35m; but his kick was wide to the right and again scored a behind, retying the game. At this point the two goal umpires from either end met at the centre of the ground to compare their score sheets, as is standard practice after the conclusion of AFL matches. After conferring for about a minute, they signalled that the scores on the scoreboard were correct and that the match was a draw, Fremantle 14.10 (94) drew St Kilda 13.16 (94).
