Watch as Kiwi Kieran Foran joins NRL goalkicking hall of shame missing sitter from right in front

March 31, 2018

Kiwi Kieran Foran has joined the NRL’s goalkicking hall of shame after one of the most embarrassing efforts in recent times.

The Bulldogs five-eighth was handed the goal-kicking duties in the Good Friday clash with South Sydney after Moses Mbye was injured and started off brilliantly, slotting a conversion from the sideline.

Unfortunately, things quickly went south for Foran with the next kick when he completely scuffed a conversion from right in front to the left of the uprights.

To make matters worse, things only got worse for Foran and the Bulldogs with Rabbitohs triumphing in the annual fixture, 20-16.
