AFL: Noah Cumberland has had a bizarre brain snap, resulting in a free kick. Teammate Jayden Short was clearly very unhappy about it at three quarter time.
Richmond youngster Noah Cumberland left fans and his own teammates stunned with a “very stupid” act in his side’s tense clash with Adelaide on Thursday night.
The Tigers were threatening to break the game open, taking a 22-point lead on the road against the Crows, when Jacob Koschitzke took a big pack mark in the final minutes of the third term. His fellow forward Cumberland celebrated the mark wildly, immediately pushing over Adelaide defender Mark Keane and seeing a free kick paid against him.
