CheatsFC fans have tried to re-write history on this, claiming a one metre long section of the point post broke off and hit the boundary umpire after it had been glued on to extend it's length to VFL/AFL regulations. Except it's more than a 2m length that breaks and the end is splintered and it goes nowhere near the umpire who is also collected by Matthews.
If a modern player hit a post like that we'd all stop while they get jeeped off!
