Worst game by an individual in modern footy

[Captain_Bender]

Did his knee giving away a 50 trying to land a cheapie on Hird.

I still don't know how Abraham hurts his knee during that

 

[PP34]

Ben Holland absolutely shut down Anthony Rocca twice on QueensBirthday.
2006, 3 Disposals and 1 Goal
2007, 2 Disposals and No Score

At least when a key forward has a down day it’s just means they’re quiet and need other avenues to score to win the game.

Hampton was hurting them both with his lack of disposals and his inability to win any contest anywhere on the ground.

 

[Back One Out]

Brendon Fevola played a few games later in his career where it looked to me like he wasn't trying

Not chasing his opponent... Deliberately dropping marks... Fumbling.... Kicking lazily at goal and missing easy shots...

Probably paying his debts off

 

[Marc_Remillard]

Brent Moloney was subbed in the 3rd quarter with literal donuts across the board.
Not even a tackle.

Actually he was very unwell and shouldn't have played, he only did because of the turmoil of what was going on at the time.

But feel free to rewrite history

I remember, he actually was sick and was selected to play. He clearly looked ****ed in a side that was well shit

 

[Aramis]

Lewis Jetta 4 disposal effort in the 2014 Grand Final was pathetic, no tackles and avoided contact like the plague.

This was the epitome of bad.... Would be ashamed to have been a Swans fan and have had that pea heart running around in my teams colours after that.

 

[sprockets]

We’re halfway through the third quarter of tonight’s game and much is being made by the commentators of the fact Curtly Hampton is yet to register a stat (though I believe he may just have registered a handball).

Got me thinking about truly terrible games by individuals, from Kade Simpson’s multiple 0 possession efforts at the start of his career to Zac Dawson’s infamous mauling by Rocca. Also remember Djerrkurra having to be subbed off for us to arrest one of the all time shockers.

What stands out to you?

When I saw that segment the first thing I said to myself was "Never heard of him" and that included tonight's game.

 

[RAPPA]

Just about every game from Gary Rohan. For a guy of his build and speed, he has all the attributes on paper to dominate but his output is often so bad after 106 games.

 

[GhostofJimJess]

Another former GWS player who has suddenly come into Stephen Silvagni's radar.

 

[Old Shinboner]

Corey McKernan had a 5 HO, 0 kicks, marks and handballs game in 2001

Against Richmond at the Dome from memory?

I seem to remember GregStafford had a similar outing when playing for the swans around that time

 

[Spook]

Hampton was as handy as an ash tray on a motor bike. If he ever plays another game for the Crows then the match committee needs to be questioned.
Also Milera was terrible and gave up the ball almost every time he had it and he had it 20 times. Some Stats mean stuff all in modern footy. Milera was easy 2nd WOG.

 

[Generalissimo]

Poor old Paul 'torture' Chambers had a couple of games like that for the Swans. Zero touches, ~10 hitouts and maybe a tackle or two.

Oh come on, a Bulldog won a Norm Smith doing that....

 

[Captain_Bender]

The worst I can remember from a Richmond players was actually in a win, Benny Gale in the 1995 semi final against Essendon

 

[RAPPA]

Oh come on, a Bulldog won a Norm Smith doing that....

made $180 off him that day. I was genuinely surprised given how often he butchered the ball or kicked to open space with his touches. Won't complain about the $$$

 

[Bunk Moreland]

I still don't know how Abraham hurts his knee during that

Watch the way he lands in the reverse camera angle. Left knee.

Totally bizarre. Wasn’t even really trying to tackle. I think he thought he was unsighted or something and could run through him.

I think he was only 26. Spectacular player but gone at that age. Apparently his surgery and rehab didn’t go well and he was delisted.

I can see how he injured his knee but still how do you try to tackle someone but end up ending your own career, the most awkward injury in footy history

 

[Schulzenfest]

Cam O'Shea had 10 touches and 9 clangers a couple of weeks back. Lost just about every one-on-one he was involved in too.

Terry Alderman nearly ended his career tackling a streaker!

 

[Fatrollo]

I seem to remember a game Fraser Gehrig played (the whole game too) where he registered one mark, one free kick against and nothing else.

He gave away a free before he could dispose of it after his only mark for the game.

Streaker? Try a violent pitch invasion by skin heads. Well some of the invaders weren’t actual skin heads but it was o rgansied by an English skin head group.

 

[Tarkyn_24]

Anthony Rocca registered -2 dreamteam points one day. One kick, one handball and a free against, or something close to that.

Danny Nichollls registered negative supercoach points for his one-game career with us.

I think that one will be hard to top. Literally ranked last of everyone ever to have existed in total Supercoach points at AFL level.

oh hell yeah dont remind us he stunk it up something fierce.

 

[Generalissimo]

He was rubbish for us too, but I don't recall any zero-possession games.

How do you play 44 career games and not once pass nine touches? Amazing.

Took it to an entirely new level of shitness when he arrived up here. We were ready to neck ourselves en masse if he got another game.

You lot still owe us for that late trade period brain explosion. After this week though, Chambers might even get a gig if he was still available.
