Greatest / most memorable MFC goals ever

[Ash35 425]

Need help / suggestions.

Trying to put together some football highlight videos for Youtube.

One of them will be the top 40 MFC goals ever, maybe even a top 50.

I have got a collection together but I don't want to miss any really memorable goals.

So need suggestions, just to make sure I haven't missed any.

Any player, any era.

To maybe help narrow down suggestions, I already have the obvious ones, eg Farmer GOTY 1998, the Liam Jurrah sitting on his butt snap against Freo 2009. Woewodin vs Port 1998, Oliver 3 weeks ago in Adelaide.

I won't list them all, but happy for you guys to throw any suggestion out there.

Wonnameri in the goalsquare against Freo at the MCG, putting the Dees in front after trailing by 50 points.  I was at that game. 

Gary Lyon kicked a 70m torp in the early 90's (I think).

Travis Johnstone, 2nd semi-final in Adelaide v Crows, streaming down the boundary on forwqrd flank, goaled from 50m.

[DemonWorshipper 301]

Off the top of my head:

Flash's running goal and Yze's boundary goal from the comeback against Freo in 08

Schwarz's baulk in the 94 finals

The goal kicked in the 04 demolition of the Blues in 04 (Davey or Bruce?) after two blues ran into each other

Neita's goal against the Hawks in 02 after flattening McCabe

Jakovich's scissor goal from 91

Leoncelli's winning goal against the Crows in 01

Farmer's big goal from the goalsquare in the Semi against the Saints in 98

Every Jakovich goal

Scissor kick is a gem?

[tiers 2,785]

Two candidates. Saw both. Incomparable.

Hassa Mann's goal from the boundary at Glenferrie Oval to secure top position in 1964 finals.

Neil "Froggy" Crompton's goal in the last minutes of the 1964 Grand Final. Our last premiership.

Nothing else comes close except for Robbie's last goal against Sydney in the semi finals in 1987.

Jeff White’s against the Bulldogs to send us into the finals series. Loved that one.

Davey's no-hands goal from a handpass (Robbo maybe?) in '06.

[In Harmes Way 7,620]

Whilst recent, Clarry's in Adelaide stacks up nicely!

Absolutely !!!

Farmer's running goal at Waverley and Woe's running goal at the G. 

[RedBlueandTrue 247]

Billy Stretch after Omac's superlative dribble kick genius

From memory, 1989 Princess Park in the mud v Hawks - GF replay. Kicked from 55m-58m mark, sailed through. Heavy track. I think just before or on qtr time siren.

[Ricky P 757]

No. 1 has to be Froggy's goal to win the 64 Granny.

My favourite, and I was 2 at the time and not even there, was Brian Wilson's running goal that was the sealer in Rnd 22, 1987. "Cover yourself in glory". 

Gazza kicked a torp from the centre square in the 88 prelim against Carlton. 

The wiz would have 30 out of 50.

There's also the massive torp he kicked from inside the centre square at Waverley against Carlton in the '88 Prelim (last passage on this clip), and this beauty against Fremantle at the 'G, also from inside the centre square. 

Others worth a mention: Lyon again, kicking the winner against West Coast in the '88 Elimination (end of this clip), and Todd Viney from the boundary line in the opening seconds of the '87 Elimination. 

Also like this one from Schwarz. 

But the goal from Robbie at the 1.50 mark of this video is one of the best I've ever seen from an MFC player.

Also 1988 prelim vs Carlton kicked one from the centre square at Waverley

Garry Lyon 88 Elimination Final vs WCE to pinch the game is another 

Edit - just saw the above posts

Been drinkin so nothing concrete, but I'd like to see Weaters smashing one from 65m on the run and surely Flash in his early days kicked a beauty?

You're a lucky man to have those memories! Too young to see either....but I vote for yours anyway

Was against the blues IIRC.

Wet day with a muddy ball.

Then he slotted one from the centre square with a new ball. 

 

[Pates 9,551]

I can't remember the full set of circumstances but Travis Johnstone kicked an absolute beauty against Adelaide in the 2002 finals.

Aaron Davey selling some candy twice to Freo and nailing it from outside 50 in our massive come from behind win at the G is another.

Was definitely against the Hawks on a bogheap at Princes Park, Queens Bday 1989. I was at that game sitting up the top of the stands with my dad and I've got the game on DVD.
