There was a similar one a year or so ago in a chicks game in a grand final. Siren went as the ball was played, dummy half threw the ball up in the air and started celebrating. An opposition player ran through, caught it, ran the field and scored which won them the game.

Here's how to throw away victory

IF you think Port Adelaide’s AFL elimination exit against West Coast was heartbreaking, you ain’t seen nothing yet.

Who was the dude that the commentators labelled a "pot plant"? Surely he did something stupid.

Haha that was pretty funny. I think there is another similar one I have seen involving Kurt Mann kicking backwards like the English one and the opposition player scoring. It was in the Jersey Flegg GF but I can’t find it atm.

Dumbest I can think of for my club was a game against Salford for relegation in 2016. 100 secs on the clock. we are ahead by 8 points. We let in a try in the corner 18-14. Only 50 secs left, we couldnt blow it from here surely, yep we let them score on next set and all tied into golden point. We KO and they score straight away in golden point from a halfway drop goal to relegate us and consign us to a year in the second division. Never seen anything like it.

As an ex-junior league referee, who was a better touchie than a referee, that's embarrassing from a professional touch judge.

Surely the ‘worst decision in the history of sport’ had to do been against the Rabbit though? Maybe not in your eyes Yobbo (you seem pretty balanced) but surely some of your South’s supporting brethren couldn’t fathom another side getting a dud call that would come close to some of the injustices the Rabbits have had to endure over the years?!

the worst decision in the history of sport was letting them back into the comp

That's a bit harsh.

That sounds more like an epic choke than dumb plays

If you listen closely enough you can hear the touching yelling "Morris was in!"

The second half performance by NSW in game 2 2017. Just had to keep their foot on the accelerator but decided to slow the game down and grind it. Never been so infuriated at a loss then that

Didn't Hayne bomb a certain try going himself and then Wade decided to grub it up?

Or am I misremembering?

Don’t remind me, it was such bullshit. No offence to the maroons but how they won that series was such a joke

Asu kepaoa taking out Kyle Feldt after the full time siren

ended up costing Tigers the match

at it again on Sunday with dumb penalty that cost the tigers the match. The NQLD one was harsh, Sunday’s was stupid but at least he was having a go. Footy brains are rare in the Tigers outfit. Even the Douehi mistake from dummy half that compounded Pauga’s kerfuffle and led to saints try just showed extreme dopiness. All he had to do was slow the play down and carry the ball, get the tigers to the last and make saints go 100m, instead he goes for the low percentage flash pickup and stuffs it. There are some in the tigers side that have a bit of skill and can make things happen but they have no appreciation of the right context to deploy their skills and it just leads to shit footy. There’s a time and a place for it but the tigers players can’t pick it
