Greatest / most memorable MFC goals ever

[rpfc 27,476]

Good memories. 

Woey against Geelong in 2000 where he gathers on al fours gets up and slots it from 40.

Neita definitely played, Russian and Whelan missed after being injured in the St Kilda game. Smith came in as the 2nd ruck.

Well there you go, apologies I was at the game and for some reason thought he missed.

No worries. I actually just watched the highlights on YT and he kicked the goal to put us 16 points up in the 2nd with a young N. Jones getting the kick out of the centre. Feels like a lifetime ago

Awesome stuff guys.

I appreciate the responses, lots of goals I already had in the video, but quite a few have been added on the back of your suggestions, eg Lyon in 1988 Prelim

Keep the memories and suggestions coming

Mentioned it earlier, but does anyone else recall Koori Col Graham's massive torp at Moorabbin?

mid 70s 

[praha 10,282]

Woey vs Port in 1998?  Around 0:32 in.

 

[titan_uranus 22,383]

Robertson's right-angle bounce to get us into the finals in 2005.

Jeff White's goal to get us over the Dogs the week before.

Salem's goal to beat Essendon in 2014.

Oliver this year.

Jurrah off his back.

Wonaeamirri to take the lead against Fremantle.

1 that stands out for me is neitz on a Friday against geelong 2005 I think he marked 1 handed against Scarlett 50 outon boundary and went back and slotted it, crowd went berzerk as it was his 250th 

[Cracker Nackers 115]

1992 against Hawthorn. Jako took a mark 50 metres out on a bad angle. Ran around the Hawk player on the mark - on the boundary line, mind you - and then slotted it through. To this day, I have never seen anything  like it.

That 4th quarter against Carton was the best quarter of football I've seen Melbourne play. Sat right in the pocket had the best view of it

If someone made a highlight reel of all the goals in this thread they would become the greatest demonlander in history

Round 22 at the MCG. This goal will be in the video.

And the player he ran around on the mark, just an average defender by the name of Chris Langford.

It's on the way.

[deelete my account 1,194]

The one that sticks out for me was Brad Green taking a chest mark in the last quarter of a final v Carlton I think, in 00? It wasn't anything remarkable, it was just the context. These young guns were firing on all cylinders. Cam Bruce, Adem Yze etc. Just an avalanche of goals as we overran the opposition. It just seemed so unlikely that this young kid had come into the side and was beating his defender and kicking these pure straight goals. A very surreal experience that year with (Almost) everything clicking. 

Edit: FOund it!

Got any of Hoges Dom ?

[dpositive 1,547]

Love all the memories and agree that there have been some beauties.

no one has mentioned Mark Jackson or Darren Bennet.Both were sometimes the only highlight in our season and kicked some amazing goals.

[Bitter but optimistic 21,278]

I'm surprised  Gerard Healy hasn't cracked a mention. I remember him kicking some absolute crackers. He was very good at running around the mark but also would rove off the pack or boundary throw ins in the FL.

I also have great memories of Neitz. Especially for big bombs from outside 50 that would sail through at half post height.

My most memorable goal was Lyon out at Waverley in the 88 Elimination final vs West Coast. With about a minute to go, he picked up a hard ball from the deck, spun and kicked one from about 30m out and the ball went about 80m up. This put us 3 pts up, and the crowd we're going mental. Half the crowd were celebrating so hard that they failed to notice Wrenstead from WC running towards goal from the next centre bounce, only to miss his shot for a point. Siren goes, we win by 2 pts. I was knackered from all the emotions. That Lyon goal was a beauty, though, escpecially in the context of the game.

A new favourite...

Got me thinking:

Ricky Jackson snap to put us in front vs Footscray 1987 Round 22
Robbo left foot snap vs Essendon in the last round that put us into the finals in 2005

We lost the game but Peter Vardy and Adem Yze put through two running tight angle goals (both on the left I think) in the 2nd quarter of that psychotic final vs Adelaide in 2002
