It happened in the 1979 Yorke Valley Grand Final, when Port Victoria beat Maitland by a point.....late in the final quarter at Moonta, a behind scored by Pt Vic was put on the Maitland score and when the siren went Maitland were shown to have won by 1 point, but the scores were changed shortly after and Pt Vic won the '79 Flag..I was there as a 8 year old watching
sad part is by the end of '85 Pt Vic were no more!

Was an interesting finish to the match yesterday actually. Scoreboard at the final siren showed Ardrossan up by 1 point, and we had a shot on goal from about 60m out after the siren. The kick didn't make the distance but if we had have scored a point to 'level' the scores only to find out afterwards that we actually lost because the scoreboard was incorrect would have been even more shattering. Has that ever happened in a game before?
