Nominations for best first goal in football

[SpiritOfCarlton]

My nomination:

Anthony Koutoufides, round 13 1992.



Would love to see some others to compete with this.

Must be first goal in VFL/AFL competition.

 

[The GOAT]

Definitely hard to beat

David Zaharakis match winning goal V Collingwood in 2009 ANZAC match

 

[Golden_6]

I know it was only a NAB cup game but still Stringers first goal in bulldogs colours.

Noicce!

Team down. First kick, 50m out, low and hard... BANG!

 

[clogged]

Quinten Lynch's was sweet.

 

[Barry_Badrinath]

Not the best one, but certainly a very good one. He'd already played quite a few games as a defender. This was a big goal in what ended up being a big win for the club:

Found this one good, not that special but having to wait so long and finally kicking 1.

-The terrible commentating

That was after Bradley was playing in the VFL/AFL for 8 years.

It was not his first goal.

 

[SpiritOfCarlton]

Why?

SANFL board.

Yeah, my bad. Didnt catch the whole thread title...thought it was a best goal ever thread

SANFL board.

If VFL goals are allowed, can't see any reason SANFL and WAFL should be.

Yeah, my first NTJFA U11s goal should be up for nomination also!

I use to go to state games as a kid where some of the Norwood players I watched each week at suburban SANFL grounds would flog Victoria's supposedly toughest players on a Tuesday night. Strange comment from you, especially considering your a north Melbourne supporter, arguably the AFL's biggest welfare case.

SANFL lost to VFL 75% of the time over many decades.

Therefore VFL three times better than SANFL.

Can't go past this one. Gives me goosebumps every time I see it.

 

[Captain Awkward]

Tunbridge kicked a really good goal in round 23 last year. Unfortunately it was his second, he had kicked his first only 10 minutes (gametime) earlier. I'll show it anyway because I thought it was a really good effort for a second gamer.

 

[Halorad]

i seem to recall jake melksham kicking an outrageous first goal, but i cant find a video of it anywhere?

edit found it. Even better than i remember 30 seconds in

Champions of Australia titles: SA: 9 Vic: 10
Interstate games 1977-1994: SA: 7 Vic: 8
