Worst game by an individual in modern footy

[Anja_Nees]

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?

Leon Davis' 0 disposal performance in the 2002 Grand Final.

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

Didn't Mooney register donuts in a premiership?

To be fair to Kade Simpson the game has changed a hell of a lot since those 0 possession games. Think I heard somewhere he had 5 minutes on the ground in the last quarter of one of those games, or something like that.

The day Brady Rawlings tagged Stephen Hill

Rawlings has 39 touches
Hill had 7

Occurred to me straight after I submitted the post.

Yeah I wasn’t trying to pot him - the talk of it just got me thinking. Very strange in the days before the sub rule though.

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

 

[Supercoach Bargain]

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

Hampton’s game would be right up there.

He’d want to be injured or something because he’s lost every one on one he’s been in. Players have constantly been too fast for him.

 

[amazingjoshy]

yep, Hampton tonight was as bad as I've ever seen from memory. Just didn't go when he needed to, if not injured that's it for him I'm afraid

I'd be drug testing him on the spot in the rooms. Looked stoned.

Hampton's effort tonight is as bad as it gets

I could be wrong here, but bear with me.

In the first year of Champion Data recording points, Winston Abraham played his first game of the season against the Bombers.

He came straight off the bench to a contest on the wing. He picked up the ball, was tackled by Hird, got done for holding the ball and did his knee in the process. He never played AFL again.

A career Supercoach average of -8 or something.

Without seeing Hampton tonight, the most noticeably bad game I've seen from a player in recent memory was Tom Hickey last year against the Bombers.

It wasn't that he wasn't getting his hands on it, I've just never seen such a liability on the field as he was that night, particularly for a ruckman. It was impossible to miss, an absolute trainwreck.

 

[Scary_Foot_9]

Yeah Curtly's GPS data tonight compared with teammates might make for interesting reading. I'd be pretty filthy if I was Sloane or Laird and just gave it the kitchen sink out there and saw some of the efforts he put forth.

 

[DarwinRoo]

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

 

[El_Scorcho]

Games from 15 years ago aren't really that interesting because fringe players spent so long on the bench.

Brent Moloney was subbed in the 3rd quarter with literal donuts across the board.

He had a migraine to be fair.

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

Sauce Merrett when first moved to the backline had a couple of shockers.

 

[Young Gun #6]

This would be very very close to the worst >80% TOG, non-kpp, non-rookie player game of all time in my opinion.

 

[PerfectFooty]

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