Goldsack's Funniest Home Videos nomination
Tyson Goldsack was a bit stiff here and thankfully, so was the behind post. The Collingwood defender discovered the post looming in his vision all too quickly and appeared to be taking steps to avoid it, but once given a little nudge from the combative Chad Wingard, he was always going to crash into it. Contact between players and goalposts will always cause a footy commentator's voice to raise a few octaves, although in this instance it was Dwayne Russell doing the calling.

The legend of Lethal grows again
But if you're going to crash into a behind post, then do it properly. Leigh Matthews never did anything by halves and when he crashed into the post in 1982 at Windy Hill, he did so with enough force to snap it in half. It spawned one of the great all-time lines from Lou Richards, who said of Matthews while commentating the match for Channel Seven, "Talk about a he-man!" Hawthorn left the ground with the four points and with the Bombers scrambling to buy a new post, which made it a great day all round. The damaged post was eventually bought at auction by Ron Barassi, and it soon took pride-of-place among various pieces of footy memorabilia at his pub in Bridge Road, Richmond.Hover your mouse to pause the gif and scroll forwards or backwards
