And as it turns out the Swedish Curlers are a bit suspect.  The Swedish skip can be heard saying, "I will show you the video".  That means he knew someone in the stands (perhaps someone affiliated with the Swedish curling team) was unlawfully taking videos of the hog line (the videos that have now widely circulated).

Lots of questions around this. There is no video replay in curling - if a rule violation is detected the umpire rules on it.  This is a low for the sport.
