Footy star Clint Gutherson was relentlessly mocked for his formal attire on the red carpet this week.
The 22-year-old, who was photographed at the Ken Thornett Awards night on Monday with his girlfriend Jesse Arena, faced social media backlash over his attempt to tie a Windsor knot.
But it would now seem the Parramatta Eels fullback’s game off the field matches his stellar season.
A second image of the couple posted by Gutherson to Instagram on Tuesday night shows the footy player with a complete Windsor knot.
