What’s your favourite GOAL from the Grand Final?

Bayleys off the pack for me, my fist pump is at its most vigorous on that one. Clarrys a close second but for the opposite, an emotional welling up response. Tracks dribble a cigarette paper third for the gobsmacking WOW, that was right over the top of the centre mark on the goal line. 

Geez I’m loving these feelings 😁

As a matter of interest, how many times do you have to watch each goal before you're qualified to comment on your favourite? I've watched each of them about 30 times. Is that enough? 

Only 30.
They're rookie numbers.

This deserves a thread of its own: Who are the ten posters that faultydet wouldn't place on ignore?

I expect I'm in the ignore group.

Gee you are brave.  The question is though would you want to be one of the 10?  It is very exclusive which is not my style.

There were five absolute RIP snorters for mine. Our first goal from Trac...off one step kicked the stuffing out of it. Then Frittas leap and recovery. Then Gus's kick which wasn't so much skilful but he normally misses and this one he nailed to put us back in front...it qualifies for his diving mark. Number Four was Trac's dribble and five Sparrow's off a step. 

I think Trac gets the chocolates just over Fritta.

Tough call though.

I will rate my top 5 goals of the 2021 AFL Grand Final in order.

1) Clayton Oliver's in the third quarter - Bang! Bang Bang Bang! Loved how he celebrated with his finger pointing to the crowd! We were on our way to winning the Flag then!

2) Christian Petracca's in the third quarter - That freakish bouncing goal from the boundary line! It was brilliant! Thanks also to Kozzie for the timely shepherd on Josh Dunkley!

3) Bayley Fritsch's 2nd goal in the third quarter - The attempted mark and then the cat-like poise to crumb the pack and kick a momentum shifting goal! It really got the crowd jumping too!

4) Angus Brayshaw's goal in the third quarter - The incredibly courageous diving mark and the clutch goal that needed to be kicked and was. It was very much awe inspiring and I loved how pumped he was after kicking that goal!

5) Tom Sparrow's goal in the third quarter - Was a great goal from outside 50 metres and was also excellent work by Tom McDonald to shepherd his Bulldogs opponent over the goal line so the goal could go through without being touched!

But yeah, the third quarter was probably my favourite when it came to amazing goals. It isn't called the Premiership quarter for nothing! It really was unbelievable!

    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,
