RUCKMAN Nic Naitanui has produced a seemingly endless list of highlight moments in 2011 and came through with another in West Coast's game against Adelaide.

While the Eagles had dominated the opening half, the young star was held relatively quiet until early in the third term.

The ball spilled out from a contest and fell out the back to Naitanui, who fumbled the ball when he was tackled but kicked off the ground from 20m out for a miraculous goal.

His goal put West Coast 53 points ahead of the struggling Crows in the third quarter.
