Most powerful Hibs goals

[Donegal Hibby]

Noticed Isak got the most powerful goal award …

https://www.premierleague.com/news/4321815

Which got me wondering what are Hibs most powerful goals over the years? Leigh Griffiths against Falkirk in the semi final possibly one ?

Nicky Caddens volley v Aberdeen nearly ripped the net out.

Bowie rifled a couple in also 🚀

[The Sundance Kid]

Kris Commons’ free kick at Falkirk on Hogmanay a few years back was some hit

I reckon if there was nothing in the way, one of Sauzee’ bullets would still be orbiting the Earth to this day !

Still one of the best goals I’ve seen live, I’m sure there were about 7k odds there and that was late on!?

[Bobo]

This goal from Bobby Smith is one that always sticks in my mind.

Griffiths free kick against them at Tynie. Absolute raker!

[tamig]

I’m sure Barry Prenderville scored an absolute howitzer at ER back in the late 90s. One of the hardest shots I’ve ever seen.

[HoboHarry]

None of them even come close to the power in a David Zitelli corner kick :greengrin

[hibees 7062]

Sauzees against them . Niemmi’s still looking for it

[Bishop Hibee]

Gordon Rae away to Dundee Utd late ‘80s. Rocket into the bottom corner in a 1-1 draw.

[Coach Jon]

Joe McBrides first goal versus Celtic in a 2-0 victory at Easter Road in 1970. First time volley which almost took the net away!

Gary Deegan hit a cracker to win a league cup tie against the sheep. We were right in line with it behind the goals.

This one for me. Absolute rasper

[Tambo]

My memory is shot but Commons is a good shout, was like a rocket.

The one at Easter Road wasnae bad either.

[Glory Lurker]

I've got it in my head that Jack Iredale launched an unstoppable once, but that might be the memory playing tricks, him being a defender and that.

[DH1875]

Joe Tortolano against Falkirk at their old, stadium early 90s.

[BILLYHIBS]

SJM second goal at Darkheid past Plooky Gordon in goals

Ach ! We only wanted him as a benchwarmer anyway

Bobby Duncan v Napoli first goal against Dino Zoff from 25 yards hardest shot I remember . I am saying 25 yards but think most people who were there it seemed to be 35 yards.

[ancient hibee]

Joe McBrides first goal versus Celtic in a 2-0 victory at Easter Road in 1970. First time volley which almost took the net away!




Yes a lot of venom in that shot- think it was Tom Hart's first match as owner. Another contender would be John Baxter's freekick against Killie in Bobby Johnstone's first game back at Hibs.

Plenty of venom in that strike put his weight behind it :greengrin

Think he had just had a perfectly good goal disallowed

[Smartie]

Griffiths also scored a right footed volley off a cross from the left against Dundee United that had a fair bit behind it.

Very good goal, up there with the best Hibs goals.

[Walter]

I’m sure Barry Prenderville scored an absolute howitzer at ER back in the late 90s. One of the hardest shots I’ve ever seen.

I was in the front row of the east stand with a view directly behind him. As soon as he hit it it was in !

[Stokesy's on fire]

Nicky Caddens volley v Aberdeen nearly ripped the net out.

Bowie rifled a couple in also 🚀

Caddens goal was class shocked it didnt burst the net.

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

Gordon Hunter from the edge of the box v St Mirren, possibly bettered by Torfasson in the same game.

Wow I was just thinking about Hunter's goal, it's one of my favourite goals scored at ER, spoke to Gordon about it years ago, everyone always goes on about his goal at Tinycastle so I think he appreciated someone remembering that one, he did say Neil Orr took the corner which I didn't remember, also don't think any TV cameras at the game, it was an epic comeback if I remember.

The Daleks in the crowd really seemed to enjoy it too.

[LEaston87]

Michael O’Neill against Rangers. I was only about 8 years old but I recall it was an indirect freekick and someone layed him off and he smashed it in from about 25 yards

[A Hi-Bee]

Bobby Duncan v Napoli first goal against Dino Zoff from 25 yards hardest shot I remember . I am saying 25 yards but think most people who were there it seemed to be 35 yards.

Thunderbolt shot from around 30 yards, what a game that was under the floodlights at the old Easter road, even the Dunbar end full of Hibees.
Fantastic days and Hibs had a very good team before the Tornadoes came along.

[linlithgowhibbie]

Mikey Stewarts 1st time volley from a corner at Easter Rd vs the Dons, absolute belter!

[Broken Gnome]

It was too close range to really count, but always loved the way GOC leathered it through Gordon for 2-0 in the unbeatable game.

Absolutely gave it everything. Wellied it.

[B.H.F.C]

Zitelli against AEK Athens.

[Donegal Hibby]

Sauzee free kick v Falkirk at ER in the First Division.

Sauzee had a few , just after watching this …

I’ve not googled this so possibly beer-impaired mammory….

Did Mikey Stewart not score a peach of a goal in the cup semi at Tynie
versus St Johnstone. He met a corner with a volley into to the top corner. The stadium was in stunned silnce for a split second because it was incredibly quick.

i think this was the game where he then threw up - may have been just after the goals if memory serves.

[Kato]

Erich Schaedler vs San Jose Earthquakes. Rattled in from 25 yards.

Thats the one I was talking about in post 43. Thanks for finding it, reaffirms that it was indeed a belter!

[O'Rourke3]

Sauzee vs Falkirk and Boyle V Livvy my top 2. Seen Goram Charnley and McGinlay score from their own half, but none were thunderbolts. Charnley's goal from Larsson's pinpoint pass was close though.

[danhibees1875]

Sauzees against them . Niemmi’s still looking for it

He was Finnish as a goalkeeper after that one.

[Mcbizz1998]

Didn’t Boyle smash in a volley against Livi, think it was towards end of Hecky’s tenure?

Remember it being an absolute raker.

[SChibs]

McGinn away to Ayr

[Broken Gnome]

Love a good thread where there is a very liberal approach to checking what other people have already posted.

I my memory serves me right did Gary Deegan not fire a rocket into top corner against Aberdeen at ER?

Damn, not much of a sell on fee there, was hoping for a lot more when he left Villa 😃

I thought it was a sclaff myself.
As the ball floated in from the corner I said to my son, "Don't even think..."

[superfurryhibby]

It came off his shin, rather than the boot. Still a fantastic goal though.

[fat freddy]

Stuart Beadie scored with one of the hardest shots I've ever seen, about 30 yards out in a midweek match away at Hamilton.
Around 1987, I think the crowd was around the same figure so doubtful that many on here saw it.

[Wilson]

Poor technique. Needed to show more identity.

George Best v Celtic at Easter Road, the goalie ended up in the back of the net

I think that's the game he was throwing-up on the touch-line. (?)

Tortolano at Falkirk when Yogi was goading him to take a shot.

He was just paying homage to the original Sauzee effort Vs Morton

Bobby Duncan v Napoli first goal against Dino Zoff from 25 yards hardest shot I remember . I am saying 25 yards but think most people who were there it seemed to be 35 yards.

Absolutely, a screamer. I’ll never forget for it two reasons. Firstly, for the quality of the goal in a terrific game but for a personal moment of panic. A week before the game I got a single tooth denture and when Duncan scored I was standing on the old East terracing. I jumped and shouted in excitement and the denture jumped out of my mouth. When things died down, I asked the guys around me to move so I could search for it, expecting it to be trampled on. Unbelievably it was lying there, completely undamaged. :greengrin

[HibbyAndy]

It simply has to be Sauzee against Falkirk last game of the season , Absolute rocket into the back of the net
