how the hell did krakouer win mark of the year walker was the best mark taken even ricky petterds mark was better than krakouers

thoughts????

 

I reckon your right brendan. For me it was between Ricky or Walker. But I think we all know why Krakouer won it now, don't we??

I don't like Walker's mark. Nice jump but it was one on one. It was almost like a schoolyard setup. I think Krakouer's was an ok choice.

 

Agreed, a shocking decission. Krakouer's mark wasn't even in the top 3 if you ask me.

I'll need you to enlighten me mate.


Collingwood player, fairytale comeback, public vote with the biggest supported club in the league. Need I go on?

Completely agree. Not even in the top 3 for mine, Nic Nat's, Walker's and Petterd's all better.

These things are always debatable. I thought it was pretty good grab.

You need to build a bridge to get over the filth's supposed fortune in these things. We're better than that cobber.

Funny that. I've just been poking around twitter and came across a tweet by Marty Pask, retweeted by Damian Barrett saying that the AFL loving public voted Walkers as the best, but the AFL themselves overruled it. This disproves one of my reasons, but doesn't go much distance at all to disproving the others. Unfortunately the Filth do seem to have a bit of extra fortune with these sorts of things, just calling it as I see it.

Well if that is true it's very disappointing but given the AFL's form of late, not surprising.

Black and white@&$?!


The thing is, he easily kicked goal of the year and didnt win that! For me Naitinui was a clear number one for mark of the year, got higher in a bigger pack of people

For me, Naitinui, Petterd, even Watts against the bombers were more enjoyable grabs, along with Walkers.

If Walker hadn't ended up with a chest mark and it was a fully outstretched grab above his head, it was his.

Krakouer's mark is a beauty, but the thing about Walker's is the hang time. Staying up there is rally hard to do, and Walker was up there for a long time. for mine, Krakouer was about 5th or 6th.

.

For what it's worth, Luke Darcy spoke about this on 'One Week at a Time' last night. He was one of the selectors of MOTY so his views are worth something. he explained that while it was a difficult decision, the key determinant that got Krakour's over the line was that it was a pack mark rather than one on one like Walker's.

Do I agree? No. I'd have gone with Walker - but at least Darcy explained the reasoning.

Krakours was underwhelming imo.

Love to see it and Pettards side by side. Haven't seen Pettards for a while but from memory was more spectacular.


Petterd's and Naitanui were pack marks and were both better than Krak's. So shove that argument Luke.

Walkers was MOTY, everyone knows it, so who cares.

absolute [censored] that he was awarded mark of the year.

Being totally unbiased, Walker's speccie was one for the ages, was night and day ahead of any other this year, then came NICNATS, then daylight to Petterd, then even more daylight to Krakouer's.

Walker was robbed. His would have to be one of the highest grabs to be ever taken. Such a clean jump, such a clean grab and he was up near the top of Eureka Tower to boot.

Agree with the goal of the year though. Fantastic run and carry down the entire field from ballantyne.

Vlad giveth and Vlad taketh away.

Walkers didn't do anything for me .

Prefer the big pack marks myself and so coulda thrown a blanket over Kracks , Nik Nat and Petterds .

Actually it's chosen by a panel. But luke darcy is on that panel so it might make sense as to why it so stupid


The temptation for the AFL to go for the career redemption / good news story proved too hard to resist.

Walker was a clear winner. Just about hit his head on the roof.

NicNat second, just ahead of Petterd and Krakouer equal third.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
