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.

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

    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 :)

    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?

    Loved the round 22, and hope he wins, but i think Byrnes goal will win the round.

    I hope so. Is he fast enough though?

    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.

    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.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
