Fans have been left scratching their heads and infuriated after a stunning debacle that seemingly saw an extra five minutes and 22 seconds added to the first half of the all-important State of Origin game II.
The first half of the match seemed to go at a frenetic pace for
fans at home but at the same time felt like it went forever due to an epic mistake that left many viewers furious.
When Josh Addo-Carr was called back for a forward pass after 36 and a half minutes of the first half, fans were forced to do a double take as the clock reverted back to 31 minutes and eight seconds.
Queensland fans, while happy about Addo-Carr's try being called back for a forward pass from James Maloney, would have looked on in horror as Tom Trbojevic scored his second try in the 35th minute, the second time the clock passed the mark in the game.
The gaffe saw host broadcaster Channel 9 slammed for adding the extra time but the host explained it by saying it was an issue with the clock provider and that the problem was "quickly resolved".
