Storm star caps off historic howler with head kick
Storm star Cameron Munster created unwanted history after kicking Roosters centre Joseph Manu in the back of the head.
The dirty play with only a couple of minutes left to play in the grand final saw the Origin five-eighth sent to the sin-bin for the second time in the game.
Although there was no official confirmation, it’s believed that’s the first time any player has been sin-binned twice in a grand final.
Fans on social media couldn’t believe the dodgy play on Munster, with some even thinking he may have lost his Kangaroos jersey in the process.
Surely Munster is the first player sin binned twice in a grand final. He may have just gifted his No.6 Kangaroos jersey to Luke Keary too.

Cameron Munster MATE….did you just kick a Rooster in the back of his head while he was lying on the ground?
Like, the Storm and their fans say they aren’t dirty but Jesus…..

The incident summed up a seriously sorry night for Munster and the Storm as they went down to the Roosters 19-6.
