Oh no, they have got both the mark and goal wrong.
Don't see the fuss. Was a cracking mark. As good or better than Jono Brown's 2002 Mark of the Year.

Very much so, just not your conventional Mark of the Year.
High degree of difficulty, courageous, and to actually stick the mark after sprinting back 50 metres and launching into a pack of five careening in the other direction... incredible.

They got them both right. Haters gonna hate!

Look, although I personnally think there were better goals than Daicos', I can at least understand that there is some semblance of a case that his was the best.
Fair enough. Opinions vary.
But * me, I'd be shocked if there's one single person out there that agrees that Walsh's mark was the best of year.

Will go down in history next to Nick Riewoldt’s as one of the most courageous marks ever. Except Riewoldt didn’t run into two monsters in Dixon and Jones.
They got the mark right. Buggered up the goal though.
Newnes' was clearly the best goal

Cripps' was the best in my view. That was an incredible goal.

There is a strong case for that.
Yeah, it was better than Gray's. Tighter angle, further out, in the wet. It was clearly the goal of the year.

I personally liked Dixon's marks against Essendon in what was a lacklustre years for marks.

Conor Glass getting a mention in the retirements montage was a bigger surprise.

Daicos was worthy - clever to keep ball in play, beat two opponents and had to skillfully shoot off the outside of the boot from the boundary, what more do you want?
Walsh though, well the fact that he said that he didn't know the Dixon train was coming kind of brings into question as to whether he was being courageous or whether he just was taking a regular mark and got cleaned up unexpectedly
