Cirrus down at Tooradin, VIC
About the same distance off the runway but in the opposite direction to this Cessna a few years ago: Kathryn's Report: Cessna 182S, VH-PCO: Accident occurred March 20, 2016 at Tooradin Airport, Victoria, Australia
I don't let people take my tailwheel airplane there, mainly for other reasons, but the wind is a factor.

The Tooradin refueller says witnesses saw the Cirrus 'kangaroo' down the runway after a bad landing and eventually the pilot simply lost control. Nothing to do with wind which was minimal

Correct... the wind certainly wasn’t significant and was as good as straight down the runway.
That gutter needs work, Squawk! Perhaps Shifty Bill could oblige...
