Goal Of The Year

[RoosterLad]

Nick Gill hands down.

That was amazing.

 

[seababoon]

i agree.. just like the commentators, i knew it was going in for some strange reason before it happened..

but then the commentator called it a leg break.. when quite clearly it would have been a big turning off spinner.. my one criticism

 

[Chief Crow]

I think only Gilly could possibly kick that

 

[Sekaj]

To be goal of the year a player I think must have at least had the intent to kick the goal. Gill's intention looked like he was trying to center it and it ended up bouncing through.

No. The scarey thing is I think he was trying to kick a goal

Anyone who follows North knows exactly what he intended to do there.

Nah,he was going for the goal.It was the disposal I expect from Gill and was lucky enough we have an oval ball that bounces the way it does.His disposal is still 2nd rate at best,he tries,but......

Oh, I've got NO doubt he was going for goal and he meant to kick it......its just that he shanked the kick but it eventually bounced through for a goal. He intended to kick the goal, he just didn't intend to kick it in that manner.

 

[smoovy]

He can make the ball talk

 

[Punchy Bassett]

For some reason I knew it was going to go in, was watching it with my folks at the time they sighed when he shanked it I said you watch it go in and sure enough!

 

[Brenton Davy]

To quote the Simpson's

Gilly just "pulled a Homer!"

Or wrong'un...

he makes it sing like an angel.

 

[Damp Squarie]

He can make the ball talk

I thought you wrote he can make the ball tank...he can do that too.
People shouldn't forget his goal assists.

Loved his point-up to the scoreboard as he walked around the boundary.

 

[EBUS]

so your saying that a goal that got the luckiest bounce, no skill involved is goal of the year!

 

[Bosley]

Or wrong'un...

It was definitely the doosra

After Lloyd's "goal of the year" last year it's possible that a set shot from 15m out could be a contender.

I reckon GOTY is between Rioli's and Harvey's. I got excited when Gill kicked that one yesterday but it won't even be a finalist.

yeah,Lloyd's was hopeless, i was at that game and the crowd was so loud when he got the goal (i was at the other end) and when i came home and saw the goal it was like "was that it" next thing you know, its goal of the year

 

[PrideOf]

Nick Gill hands down.

That was amazing.

If not goal of the year at least an Emmy for Best Supporting role in a Comedy.

 

[beartoo]

Yeah the Warne-like spin on that one was great, but could he have a contender for MOTY in the one he snapped from around fifty after that one-handed grab? That was sheer magic.

Any one able to get it up on YouTube?
