Funniest thing you ever saw on a footy field?

I've seen some pretty funny things on the footy field in my junior days. Just a topic to see what people have heard or seen on the paddock (could include old NRL stories too).

One of the greatest I ever saw was a match that was been played just before mine. It was an under 16's game and locked up 16-16 with about 5mins to go. There was this cocky little halfback who thought he was Wally Lewis, he made a decent break with no one in sight from about 40 out. He had the game won. He turned on the sprint and started show boating and acting like a knob to the other team. Turned back around and instantly ran straight into the goal post and knocked himself the hell out. The thud was unreal.

Also, when I played under 11's years and years back, there was a Tongan girl playing who dead set nearly killed us. She was like a female Fui Fui.

Funniest thing for me was Kevin Walters farting on the field when playing State of Origin , the cameras were pointing at him and he let one rip :laughing: . Also i can't remember which player chucked a piss on the field , i saw it on the Sunday Roast.

Thanks mate , never seen him play .
 
Same as you Tigertye, there was a cocky halfback in the team against us he thought he had scored he looks back at the team and guess who is waiting me :smiley: put a shoulder on him and forced the ball out, the score was something like 32-12 our way
 
I remember playing a junior rep game for Group 7 years ago. We were up against a powerful Central Coast outfit who were leading us 10-0 just before halftime. We were attacking their goal line trying desperately to get back into the game and one of my mates who had come on as a bench replacement decided to pot a field goal from 10 out and in front of the posts…The coach screamed "what the $#%^ is he doing?". Needless to say he never made it back onto the field after halftime and we lost 16-1 or something along those lines.

Hahaha something similar happened to a bloke I played with called Nathan Zammit, he was the rangar Maccas boy in their ads years ago. Shot a field goal and we were down by two. Coach nearly ripped his head off. Still know the guy and still remind him of it after a few at the pub.

When I was about 12 one of the older junior teams (under 16s or there abouts), were playing their final game of the season. They were going to run last win, lose or draw and they were playing the run away minor premiers. They were down 38-0 with 15 seconds left, so the halfback slots a field goal to make it 38-1\. The whole team went up like they'd won the grand final, the other team were clearly filthy.

At NRL level though it would have to be Michael Witt playing for Parra when they were running into a gale, and he's gone for a short drop out and hooked it badly. The result was the kick went 10m backwards and dead on the full. I doubt he could have done that if he was trying.
 
Its not a league story but funny anyway. One of my mates was in a cricket team whose captain was kind of a jerk. One day they were having a tough day in the field getting belted and the Captain was giving it to his bowlers telling them to harden up etc etc. Anyway he decided enough was enough and decided to bring himself into the attack where he had 30 runs taken off his very first over
 
I got a bit of a funny I was involved in . I have told this story before in a fighting thread we had at some stage

Anyway was playing a trial match for state titles up near Aspley to give some match practice I was playing for Brisbane West region against Brisbane South Without name dropping this side had 6 or 7 blokes who played NRL and 4 blokes who represented Qld at SOO (All forwards as well )

Anyway we got off to a great start and lead I think 14 or 16 nil

Thats when things get interesting , I gone to make a tackle on one of the opposition forwards and he drops his knee into my chin Completely splits and blood is just pissing out Thinking this bloke is taking liberties with me ,after he plays it I king hit him (breaking his nose ) Best punch Happy ever threw

Bad idea instead of dropping like a stone this bloke barely blinks and bashes the tripe out of Happy ,split eye ,bloodied nose the fight breaks up and we both get sent off

Trying to save face I give him a mouthful and then forget the dressing rooms are over 100 metres away from our playing field I decide to hurriedly make my way to our dressing rooms

So at half time the team comes in to the dressing room and are all admiring my war wounds , but i notice the centre is keeping his distance He finally comes over and "Sorry" and i said "You don't need to be sorry

He says "Yes I do ,I kneed you in the chin"

Funniest thing I ever saw at higher level was Fatty Vautin 80 metre try he brags about

It was a knockout semi v Valleys in Brisbane

All these blokes come at him and you think to yourself ,ah this bloke will get him .,and the next bloke and then the next bloke and they keep missing him and he keeps stumbling on and scores under the post

Worst thing is the goal kicker misses the kick

And talking of funny scorelines a BRL Grand Final between Brisbane Wests and another team in 1976 finished 16-1 and the field goal by John Payne was the opening score

I can't remember the team we played against that day , but if you PM Tiger Watto he might remember

Please everyone PM Watto , he loves reminders about the old BRL days :laughing:
 
Not a footy story but This always makes me laugh. I was watching an under 16 rep soccer game, and the game was pretty one sided. The home team were absolutely hammering the other teams goal. Anyway the home teams goalie is getting pretty bored so he decides he wants to hang upside down off the goalpost. His pants got caught up on the hook that holds the net, and the away team scored a goal from halfway. To add insult to injury he then fell off and lost his pants, leaving him to walk off in his undies.

Years ago, a few of our league players, myself included filled in for the local rah rah side as they were running short and we had a bye. At one stage, our prop Bevo made a beautiful legs tackle and forgetting we were playing the 15 man game he lay over the ballplayer. As you can imagine, the other forwards were very quick to charge in and start rucking the crap out of Bev….and he started screaming. The ref blew his whistle and started pulling it apart and thats when we could hear what poor old Bev was saying...."Me f###en kegs! those c##s have rucked me f###en kegs!" Both sides and the 100 or so spectators watching just cracked up laughing. The trainers came on and tried to get him to stretch it out but he was far too sore so with a trainer under each arm Bev walked off the field on his tippy toes screaming obscenities the whole time. Unfortunately his ordeal wasnt done with yet as his young son had watched the whole thing and as the trainers got him to the sideline, he came bolting in to hug his dad. Because his arms were around the necks of the trainers, Bevo couldnt protect himself and copped a full blown headbut to the aggots from his young fella.

We all erupted again as we watched Bev rolling on the ground a second time screaming "ah me f###en kegs!".

Guy I worked with was playing a 16's rep match down in Batesman bay, running onto the field he steps into one rabbit hole and breaks his right ankle. Next step he steps into another rabbit hole and breaks his left ankle. Had to be stretchered off the field before kick off.

I hope the rabbit holes were off the field. Surely they wouldn't play a game on a field like that

Haha unfortunately it was on the field. Some
Cut grass was lying over the hole from when they had mown it. There are some shocking fields especially in the country during that long drought. Was not much you could do.

U10's game many many moons ago. Kid makes a break right on the sideline in front of his dad. Dad's all excited and starts running down the sideline beside him. There's kids running everywhere and dad starts shouting 'pass it, pass it'…

So the kid passes it straight over the sideline to his dad.
