Jack Wighton's shock move to sign with Souths has sent shockwaves through the NRL, leaving fans wondering if it could be the worst signing in the history of the game.
The sudden departure of Jason Demetriou from South Sydney has left the club in disarray, reminiscent of the chaos seen during the 1999 Magpies' season.
This debacle has unveiled what may go down as the most disastrous decision ever made in the NRL.
It wasn't just Souths' questionable handling of Demetriou's dismissal or the timing of his contract extension that has raised eyebrows.
The attempt to shift blame onto Sam Burgess also failed to distract from the real blunder at hand.
The signing of Jack Wighton is now being hailed as the most nonsensical move in NRL history, a decision that has the potential to go down as a catastrophic misstep in the annals of rugby league.
