Talk about a brain fade. Big Sam Darcy lost his cool after being beaten in yet another marking contest and threw a high shot at Jordon Butts.
He followed up by throwing Josh Worrell to the ground, just to make things worse – taking Butts to just metres of the goal line.

Unbelievably, the Crows defender who kicked his first career goal earlier in the night in his 87th game inexplicably missed.
There is a bit of spite in this match now, while Dogs coach Luke Beveridge has moved from the coach’s box to the team bench.
Dogs 67, Crows 54 with six mins to go in Q3.
