NRL star's hilarious reaction to dropping F-bomb on live TV

David Gower hasn't played much first grade in 2017 and by the looks of things his media chops have declined significantly.

The Parramatta forward lined up for the city-slickers in the annual City-Country clash on Sunday and got over the line for the first try of the match.

Gower has struggled to crack the Eels' starting 17 this year, and he definitely wouldn't have faced an mid-match interviews in reserve grade.

But that's exactly what he was confronted with as Channel Nine commentator Andrew Johns asked for his thoughts as he was making his way back for the kick-off.

"I just really f***ing hope we get the cash," Gower said.

If the unfortunate slip of the tongue wasn't funny enough, his reaction certainly was.

Gower's eyes immediately went wide with horror at what he'd said on live television and Johns immediately ended the interview while trying to contain his laughter.
