Love the way that this time the "All the Goals" takes 11 whole minutes to get through.

There have been games not so long ago when it's been a very short video indeed! :(

How hard would it be to put together a Demonland goal of the year award? Each week all the goals go into a poll to be voted on and at the end of the year they all go together for posters to decide the best of the year. Will need a few retrospective polls for this year obviously, but is there any merit in doing something like that?

Great idea, but should have award for team goals and individual goals.

I was trying to come up with a method of doing just that, as you posted.

Best I can think of is allocating each goal a category in the initial weekly poll, team/individual (perhaps even both). That way the weekly winning goals can be tracked easily by category and we can have individual 'final' polls at the end of the year. The overall goal of the year will be chosen from the two category winners, so that means 3 final polls - team, individual, and overall.

Thoughts?

Check out the two handpasses at the 7.30 minute mark from Oliver which resulted in a Garlett goal.

I love all the possessions that resulted in a Ben Kennedy goal beginning at 6:11.

I love the goal garlett gets in the third (i think) from a joe the goose from Kent.

I had to watch it a couple of times to confirm what i saw on first blush - that is Gatlett involved in the center square when the ball was in dispute before backing a team mate to win the ball and bolting forward into space.

A dees player did indeed win the contested ball and after a couple of sharp handballs it was kicked to an unmarked Kent who flipped it over to garlett who ran into an open goal.

Terrifc team goal and a template for how we want to play.

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
