NRL touch judge Jeff Younis back in the public eye following another clanger
HE stuffed-up during the 2010 grand final and missed a blatant forward pass which could have cost Canberra dearly last Sunday.
Yet touch judge Jeff Younis hasn't been dropped - in fact he's been rewarded with another semi-final appearance.
Younis failed to pick-up the blatant forward pass at Canberra Stadium from Sharks centre Colin Best to Nathan Stapleton, who scored. The Raiders overcame the howler and still won.
Yesterday, the NRL released its touch judges for week two of the finals and there was Younis, assigned to the Manly-North Queensland game on Friday night.
Younis was the same sideline official who missed Dragons winger Brett Morris sliding his feet into touch during the 2010 grand final against the Sydney Roosters seen here in images supplied to us by Fox Sports.
Saints scored seconds later through centre Mark Gasnier.
Manly and Cowboys coaching staff must be praying Younis will avoid more blunders on Friday .
