My top 5 (in no particular order):

- Wayne Weidemann v Fitzroy @ Princes Park, 1992
- Brett Burton v Freo @ Subiaco, 1999
- Tony Modra v North Melbourne @ Footy Park, 1993
- Darren Jarman v WB (Prelim Final) @ MCG, 1997
- Tony Modra v Fitzroy @ Footy Park, 1993

Honourable mention to Brett Burton's one man mark-a-thon vs St Kilda @ Waverley Park, 1999.

That mark from Mods was a cracker and was also right in front of me. One of the most exciting moments I have had at Footy Park!!

If that's the one, that's the one Ian Robertson declared would win Mark of the Year, it was round 6 or 7, he said no one would beat it and he was right.:D

Can't go past Modra in 93. Also enjoyed his Mark of the Year in 98. Used Micky Martyn as a step ladder in the goal square, twisted mid air and ended up taking it with his back to the centre of the ground.

Also remember Burton in 99 taking one over Matty Lloyd on the outer half forward flank down the Southern end.Actually jumped right over his head, didn't use him as leverage at all. Took a few beauties that year, the Mark of the Year was down to four of his marks and Matty Lappin's from round one. Unfortunately Lappin won it.

T Modra vs Richmond in the 137 point thrashing that cost walls his job. He just jumped without assitance sat on top of the pack took it first time and laneded on his feet. The look on Troy Bond's face said it all.

Burton took mark of the century in the wet against Essendon but the umpire paid a push even though their wasn't one and the match was beyond doubt.
