Toast Anthony Rocca's Goal

[Hagla]

I didn't watch the game last night but I just saw the highlights on H.S. That kick was unbelievable! It was absolutely HUUUUUUGGGGGGEEEE!!!

 

[Cousin of Daicos]

Holy shit!

Biggest goal of the year so far in ANY comp! Amazing. What he could have done for us in finals if his injuries weren't keeping him down.

 

[Markfs]

and it answers the question about who should replace Chris Dawes....

Im so glad his not lining up for West Preston this week against greensborough!

 

[MagpieJoel]

Loved the goal, what an awesome kick.

 

[76woodenspooners]

Anybody any thoughts about why our team would have so many missed set shots on goal over the last few years when we've got A.Rocca as a kicking coach?

(Awesome kick, Wow!)

 

[WakeUpPies]

Get him to lose that weight and play for us again!

not srs, but what a kick!

 

[Lensen]

I say this without any hinting of taking the piss, that was my absolutely favourite moment in football this year.

I miss him playing for us

I've watched it about 10 times already in less than 24hrs. Classic!

i was at this game, when he marked and jogged back i instanly new he'd have a shot, i didn't know he kicked it from inside the square until i saw the replay on the screen, when he kicked i.... well lets just say i was no longer in my seat

 

[GreekLunatic]

Thats the longest kick this year. James Brayshaw i think was in shock.

 

[10571z]

Amazing how its a skill your born with. Plenty of AFL players cant do that no matter how hard they train

 

[Garibaldi]

I thought Sav was the better player and he did it in a real game. Still acnt take it away from Anthony. Thats a real kick.

Yep, Anthony never did it in a real game.

He was always a great kick from 50m+, but closer to goal was a worry. The amount of goals he'd miss from inside 30m was always his weakness.

 

[The Magnificent Seven]

I've seen him just THROW the ball from nearly one end of the Lexus centre to the other. Over the top of the protective nets in the sprung floor.

Sigh.

He shoulda had a premiership medal. And jeez he gave it a good shake in 2007...

 

[Subtemperate]

Takes me back to 2002. That kick was the best thing I'd seen till october 2010 (I saw 1990 but was too young to enjoy it)

And 2002 when he kicked a late GOAL to the City End. I was right behind it and I don't care what Brisbane fans say, we waz robbed!

 

[Garibaldi]

no, he never did.

 

[Good_Old]

no, he never did.

Dude, get the **** out of here, I grew up watching him bomb goals from well outside 50.

There is even one from the corner of the square in this vid, 0:55 seconds in.
