I think Jurrah is a strong contender to win goal of the year 2009... twice... the round 20 goal is

to refresh people's memories and the round 22 goal is the one he kicked over his head on Sunday.

Posted

I'll try to get this week's goal up (unfortunately in the same horrible, filmed off my tv, way)

Posted

St Kilda.

Not to take away from the Freo one, but I've seen plenty of players kick goals when lying on the ground (it happened a few times that round, Douglas for Adelaide, Selwood for West Coast).

The St Kilda one, most commentators agree that most players can't kick a ball 30 metres over their head. I don't think anyone else could do that.

The one against St Kilda was a joke (in a good way!), the thing that got me was that he wasn't even backed into a corner and forced to do it, he just let his instincts tell him to do it!

I was in shock!

the round 22 goal is on teh afl goal of the wek site..

what a terrible thing we have to do in separating these amazing kicks...lol This guy just KKNOWS where the sticks are...brilliant. He backs himself with , well not arrogance, just sheer self belief and Im fine with that I want a forward to know how to kick goals..to not be scared or unnecessaily unselfish.

Glad he's playing with us :)

every week they put the highlights up on foxsports.com.au

here is the jurrah goal

http://www.foxsports.com.au/afl/video/0,,A...s_14642,00.html

am very surprised his one hander didnt get a mention for mark of the week ...its better than Lingy's

definately the one this week. Do you we will see him in action in the Grand Final Sprint this year and winning it Usain Bolt style?

I hope so. Is he fast enough though?

Posted

I wouldn't think so.

Then again, I didn't think Stef Martin would've been either.

this is the sort of player the Afl honchos love - the human highlight reel

50% either way for me.

The afl will give it to him for whichever 1 poles the most votes, even if another players goal actually got more votes..

The rd.20 one blew me away - hope he gets it for that one.

They are both great goals and I find it hard to separate them. However, the goal against Fremantle was just freakish. How he managed to grab the ball and kick it on the ground through so many bodies, and find the goal is amazing. But the one overhead against St. Kilda was just as good.

Posted
how fast is this guy?

watched the highlights on youtube of the syndey game... he looks like he has more pace than i first thought

It must have been an illusion, as Freak has stated previously he's not as fast as Naitanui.

Than again, we didn't finish last and nor do we have picks 1 and 2.

his speed is very...very deceptive. Hes like a very fast cat . Doesnt run flat chat all the way..just pounces :)

    The tough on baller won his second Keith 'Bluey' Truscott Trophy in a narrow battle with skipper Max Gawn and Alex Neal-Bullen and battled on manfully in the face of a number of injury niggles.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
