    Best Goal Kicked by a Defender

    What is the best goal kicked by a defender that you have seen? There have been some beauties

    What about this finish by Dale Morris?



    How about Easton Wood in the classic v Swans in 2015 at 6.10



    My favourite is Brad Hardie v Essendon in 1986 at Windy Hill. Watch from 1.18. Unfortunately it doesn't show the build up from the back pocket where Hardie was involved and kept running to receive and ultimately goal.

    Alex Keath's first goal here is a ripper

          Hardie 's goal was a ripper Doc. I was there that day. A good win out there.

            Loved that Brad Hardie goal.

            Kingsley Hunter won goal of the year with this effort:

            Year 2000 Goal of the Year went to Bulldog Kingsley Hunter running from the defensive 50 he kept going and laid a handball off to Scott Wynd, received it...

                Alex Keath for the win:

                What should I tell her? She's going to ask.

                      Some of JJ's goals out of the back line have been impressive. I'm going to have a look and see if I can add a youtube clip.
                      Bailey Dale has done it as well

If he reaches good form this year and can play most matches (especially finals, gotta think positive) it will really help our chances to bring the cup to WO.
                            Josie :)

                            Our day will come
                            And we'll have everything.
                            We'll share the joy
                            Just like '54 again.

                              The Keath goal is great, especially due to his need to tell the students to settle down after copping a head butt from Naughton.

                              With you on JJ. If his body can hold up he's got plenty of excellent footy in him and will be integral to us having a better year.
                              TF is this?.........Obviously you're not a golfer.
