The goal you most went nuts over

Featured Replies

Posted

I'm interested in, recent and ones before I was born, goals in which you simply went nuts over the most. It gave you a license to just simply go nuts and yell as loudly and wildly as you could.

I'm going to start of and say

Jeff white vs western bulldogs '05.

Needed to kick it to keep us in the finals race with just 1 game, and a couple of minutes to go. Talk about pressure! Miss it, you're out of the finals race , win and you're just about in.

I went buzzurk like no other goal.

#5 Froggie 1964 GF would surely have to be the greatest all time Demon goal, but of course dependent upon Hassa Mann's dying moments goal at Glenferrie Oval, without which we would have missed the finals altogether!

Cam Bruce in the dying stages of the 2000 QF was also pretty inspirational and left the Cheaters aghast

Ox just before half time in ?1994 ?QF, again vs the Cheaters was game turning

Woewodin running goal against port it was like slow motion and the build up from selling candy was crazy not a big crowd but sounded like 80,000

 

Jeff White in 2005 was a pearler.

Brian Wilson numerous occasions.

Jeff Farmer against hawthorn at VFL Park in the wet.

All of the above, plus the G. Lyon barrel in PF at Waverley 1988 - last happy footy moment of that year.

Also, the T. Viney opener at the start of the 1987 EF against North - our first finals goal since Froggie's, and the first of a torrent for the day.

Liam Jurrah's goal! Over the shoulder, agains't st kilda..... Has to be close to one of the best ever.......

 

2008 melb frem game where we came back from 50odd points down at half time, when we hit the front thanks to woneaemirri's goal in the dying minutes. never been so proud, was at the g that day, and the small crowd sounded like there were 100,000+ in the ground. (feel sorry for ther poor father and his son sitting in front of me who left at half time. he must have kicked himself)

video is worth watching from about 44 minutes in.

The jeff White goal I went so spasatic that I slashed the front of my shin as I fell between the seat and back rest, I don't even remember jumping onto the seat in the firsts place.

This bad boy, which suckered me into supporting this godforsaken club.

Amen to that. I was 14 and I was getting worried because I wasnt used to watching Melbourne lose. At that moment I realised there was a god,he was a Demon, and to this day I walk into the G expecting (deep down) that the redlegs will win. Sadly though my faith is waining,I have a buddhist worldview now and the noble truth of suffering looms large......Time for another one please.......Watts from the members wing boundary after 3 bounces would do it I reckon

Jakovich Scissor Kick Firstly at number one...you just cant do that from how ever far out it was...its just insanity & genious!

Woeys MCG run goal from half back raised the hair a bit on my back also..

Garry Lyon kicked some rippers over the years too many many classy goals from Gazza!

2000 Qualifying final Vs Carlton, come back from 30+ behind, Uze kicked it off the ground through the goal to put us in front.

Ball sails through the goals and onto my chest, pure ecstasy!

Yze against St Kilda in the 2006 EF. Turned out and gave a frightful and shamefully obscene spray to the loud, annoying St Kilda fan behind me.

The entire second half of that match.

I don't know, even as a winless side with no hope, the second half was just...different. I remember it like it was yesterday.

Some that come to mind:

2012: Jones' banana goal against the Bombers. I fell to my knees in celebration - a great moment. To a lesser extend, Garland's goal in the goal square.

2011: Watts' goal against Richmond (false dawn? sign of the future?)

Moloney's goal against the Bombers on the run from 55.

2010: Aussie's and Jurrah's goals against the Swans and Hawks.

2009: Jordan McMahon?

2008: Davey's and Wonaeamirri's goals against the Dockers

Miller's mark and goal at the 36 minute mark against the Lions

2007: Robbo's 7th after the siren against the Pies on QB

2006: Davey's goal against the Cats in round 6

Mclean's goal in the Elimination Final

Bruce's goal against the Swans

Neitz dobbing a heap from outside 50 against the Saints

Yze's goal against the Pies QB

2005: White's goal against the Dogs

Robbo's goals against the Cats and Bombers

Yze's goal against the Bombers to start the season

2004: Vardy in the wet against the Dockers

Johnstone's goal against the Bombers in the EF

2003: -

2002: Jonhstone/Yze against the Crows

Neitz's rampage against the Lions

2001: Leoncelli's goal against the Crows

2000: Woey against the Cats

Yze/Green/Bruce/Leoncelli against the Blues

Farmer against the Pies/Dockers/Roos

1999: (This was actually a point) Robbo against the Hawks

1998: Tingay against the Eagles

Farmer vs the Hawks

Lyon vs the Crows

All very fun moments at the time, yet looking back they're all pretty mediocre memories in the greater scheme of the game. Although, after a few wins I'll no doubt look back with utter joy...

 

Adem Yze 2006 EF

Russel Robertson Round 22 2005 leg break

Jeff White from my couch 2005(The one time my dad works at night)

Robbo 2007 QB after siren

Colin Garland 2012 vs Dons all goals

2002 Adem Yze/Peter Vardy/Trav Johnstone vs Crows SF

  • 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.
