As if knocking over a sideline conversion wasn’t hard enough, imagine trying to do it with a hostile fan screaming at you from two metres away.

The No. 6 then took the tee and set himself up for the kick just a few inches in from their left touchline.
The ocean breeze blowing over his shoulder wasn’t the only factor Doueihi had to deal with while lining up his kick.
A throng of rowdy Dragons supporters were doing their best to break his concentration at the same time.
One fan could be seen yelling at the top of his voice: “Come on Doueihi, way to the right, way to the right!”.
Doueihi disobeyed the command and instead sprayed it way to the left of the posts.

Former Cronulla star Michael Ennis was amused at the successful spray.
“Look at him spraying Doueihi from behind,” Ennis laughed.
“He’s going to climb the fence.”
Fox League commentator Andrew Voss joked: “he’s done his job for the Dragons, that young man on the fence”.
Dragons coach Anthony Griffin might ask the fan to tour with the team for the rest of the season.
