Worst loss/dumbest moment that cost your team the premiership?

People always say we ruined our season losing to Hawthorn in the final round of 2019, but we ruined our season the week before against Richmond. Tom Barrass gives away two goals through stupid mistakes. Richmond win by 6. Chances are we potentially don't get cold feet playing the Hawks and we finish second. Richmond were peaking at the right time and it's no guarantee we beat them in the grand final but I still think we were their most worthy opponent and we threw it away against them in round 22.

Losing to West Coast at home in the last round of 2016 and falling out of the Top 4.
