Are peeps honestly calling it goal of the year?

Goal of the decade. The bloke on the mark wasn't even close to the 50m line. 

Not sure how many people on here played footy but personally speaking I could get the spin of the torp but barely any extra distance because I wasn't kicking through the ball, to get the right spin. Went outside in with my kicking leg.

Hunt has got an extra 20 maybe 30 metres from kicking through it and still managed to kick it through the goals, even though it was turning the wrong way.

Not eligible for GOTY because it wasn't voted as the weekend winner by the public. 

Unbelievable.

It's one of the best goals I have ever seen. It was a completely deliberate and ridiculously well executed kick, to be contrasted with the arsey shots we see each week of the year.

People obviously vote along club lines.

Didn't someone from Port kick a decent torp against us at Adelaide Oval in 2011? Same flank, perhaps from 55-60m, maybe after the 3qtr siren? Memory fuzzy.

Correction: was Travis Boak at qtr-time.  

Finally found it. Many similarities. 50sec mark, really pleasant commentary. Fitzpatrick debut, Morton opens the ledger . . .

Apologies if this is old news, bit apparently Jayden recons it was kicked into the wind as well:

Interesting that he practices and likes kicking a torpe when he gets a chance.

Depends which one. William of Normandy's goal of occupying England was pretty good. His descendants are still in control.

Technically a different millennium, but I did hear he dribbled Harold's head through two trees at an unbelievable acute angle.

Chief was not happy.

In all respect to Clarry, Jayden's torp is without a doubt the unofficial Demon Goal of the Year at this point. Would love this to win at the end of the year and not the stereotypical fluky goal from the boundary or the 'run and goal' with five bounces from half-back.

And amusingly it's exactly that kind of goal (run from half-back) that we would have expected from Jayden! Way to flip the script!

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    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,
