Mate, you're dreaming... They were both similar marks as far as the pack situation goes, but when a closer to ground level replay of Jurrah's mark bobs up you will realise how friggin high he got, and that is what will put it above Goddard's mark.

Agree. The ground level shot on Fox looked awsome, but they didn't show the equivalent angle for Goddard's grab. Jurrah by a whisker for me.

Think Goddard will get it, but wow, both were absolutely spectacular.

well arent we a blessed bunch. smith, farmer , the ox, robbo and now the JURRAHCAINE

I know we're all dismissing Newton as a Demon from next year, but remember his mark in 2007 at all?

Mark of the Year for me.

I was at the game.

And Jurrah's is better.

Then you don't know a good mark.

2010 mark of the year--even would go so far as to say- one of the best I have ever seen

Both marks were stupendous. Hard to separate them. Both would get 10/10 for style points. The difference I see IMO is that Goddard more or less rose effortlessly to grab the ball in more of a classic effort. Whilst Jurrah leapt up like a tiger with incredible forward motion from seemingly out of position. An amazing leap. And he kicked the goal too. Usually players who take these monster marks near goal usually fluff them. I would give it Jurrah narrowly but then again I'm biased.

Agree. I cant split them. I have a bias for Jurrah but would not be surprised or disappointed if Goddard got it.

After marking Jurrah did kick a goal. Newton did the same in 2007....Pity he has done little since. :mellow:

jurah was on watts shoulders! massive leap...watts is 196cm tall...from the footage i saw LJ didn't even touch watts or use his hands to assit in the ride...

if it doesn't get mark of the year it will probably go close to being in the top 10 marks of the decade. . .

HERALD sun poll showed 70% of voters went for Jurrah. Jurrah for mine too. Absolutely stupendous!!!

I like both, hard to separate.

A SEN poll this morning was running at 83% for Jurrah out of the two. They can't all be Melbourne supporters.

How crazy would have the crowd gone if he did it at the G. Where more Dees supporters would have been. It looked good on the big screen at the Cas

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    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.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
