Player Watch Pick #52 (2013) - Darcy Byrne-Jones

I think 9 out 10 players wouldn’t have scored a goal. It was a wonder soccer kick.

In an interview after the game he said the players every now and again kick a soccer ball around, and that helped

With all due respect to our boy, Harley kicked possibly the goal of the decade on the weekend, he ain't winning.

I mean, in a vacuum, I would vote the Harley Reid goal.

But a couple of cracking goals there.

Reid’s goal was a great show of strength and skill. No doubt. It was a pretty much a regulation goal though.

Durry’s goal was an insane, instinctual shot, that won the game with less than 5 seconds on the clock.

For an accolade like ‘goal of the year’ surely the theatre wins it?

Rankine’s goal was pretty impressive as well.

 

[TeeKray]

Reid's goal was great but wouldn't be considered the clubhouse leader for goal of the year if it was Tom Powell kicking it in front of 5000 people in Hobart. I suppose they do take into account all the hype and atmosphere surrounding these things though.

 

[bomberclifford]

Given how clutch it was, Rioli’s 50m goal to put us in striking distance was up there with these three.

Anyway, we know how this will play out.

There's multiple centre clearance goals in this video that are better than Harley Reid's.

That goal is more over-hyped than Nick Daicos racking up 40 uncontested hand ball receives acros half back.

 

[Peninsula Boy]

I'm a sucker for the running goal from half back but it has gone the way of the dinosaur.

I prefer the highly skilled goals but game winners are hot to trot too.

Tough decision.
