Trent Cotchin and Jess Raffa stunned during Sunday night's episode of Dancing With The Stars, booking their place in the Grand Finale with a sensational Cha Cha.
However, in an embarrassing twist of events, the former Richmond star was left with a red lipstick mark on his crotch.
The footy star and his partner wrapped up a successful evening, finishing second on the leaderboard on Sunday night, behind Brittany Hockley and Craig Monley, on 34 points.
Cotchin and Raffa set the audience alight as they performed a Cha Cha, with the former midfielder showcasing the brilliant quick feet he dazzled with throughout his glittering footy career.
The pair danced and jived around the stage, while also flawlessly completing multiple difficult lifts and drops.
At one point, the footy star even ripped off his red checked shirt, sending cheers up among the audience.

After the performance, the pair headed over for a chat with Sonia Kruger, to hear the judges' scores.
But during the dance, it appears the 35-year-old former AFL player, who was wearing white pants and a black vest, accidentally got some of Raffa's makeup smeared on his crotch.
While it was an awkward moment for the couple, the judges made light of the situation.
'Have you got lipstick, that'd be an odd place,' Kruger said, noticing the mark on the former footy star's pants.
'Oh my gosh! Can we?' she added, bringing more attention to the mark.
The moment sent the judges into hysterics, while Cotchin said: 'I was already awkward, now I'm extremely awkward.'
Kruger then noted that the moment must have happened during one of the lifts the couple had completed during the routine, speaking to Raffa: 'So you've kind of face-planted.'
'Anyway, moving on Sonia, thank you,' Cotchin quipped.
After Cotchin had taken off his shirt, he had also swung his head around to the judges, noting that he had looked right at Craig Revel Horwood.
'I was staring down the barrel with Craig (Revel Horwood),' Cotchin said.
'I'd like to try that death drop, darling,' Revel Horwood joked back.
Dancing With The Stars fans had previously noted how Cotchin had been a little awkward to dance with Raffa during the early days of the show, suggesting he had been a little hesitant to dance with another woman who was not his wife, and his childhood sweetheart Brooke.
'Even to this day, if I watch it, I'm like, 'Oh, yuk!' he told TV Week.
Raffa had also told him to 'stop being so f***ing awkward' during the early stages of the show.
He laughed off the comment, replying: 'I can't help it - that's just how I am!'
'I think deep down she probably appreciates it.'
Aussie boxing star Harry Garside opened proceedings on Sunday night with a Mad Max-themed tango with Siobhan Power.
However, while Garside didn't finish bottom of Sunday's rankings, with Michael Usher and Natalie Lowe placing below them on 19 points, the Olympian was eliminated from the show, after being awarded 20 points.
'It's been so much fun, it's such an amazing process,' Garside said.
'To share this with Siobhan, and to learn how to dance from her, like how cool is that? So fingers crossed it helps my boxing, I'm sure it will.'
