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 :)

    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.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?
