Logan comfortably I reckon.

Ryder's was perhaps a better leap however Logan's is what you call a pure "hanger" - got more hang time.

 

[Red Black and Blue]

Logans is better, got the hang, although I expect there to be a better one taken before the end of the year.

 

[Big Blow Hard]

Logans at this stage, but I gree with Jonesy, It will be beaten by years end.

I have a strong feeling Patty Ryder will contribute many more contenders before the years out as well.

Logan wouldn't win even if is the best mark simply coz of moty and goty are done by the fans not acutally on ratings so with port having a small supporter base he is a shit all chance.

 

[half_back_flank]

Logan for mine because he didnt land on his feet, looks way better.
Also had great hangtime, reminds me of Otten's effort in 2006, "Ottens what a mark, will he ever come down!"

 

[El_Scorcho]

Logan because of the hangtime. Had a chance to take the photo, click review, see that it was blurry, delete it, and take another one.

Agree with the above poster who says coming down on your feet make it feel nowhere near as high.

 

[Rack Watts]

Logan by a mile, Ryder is going to put a few more to the list by the end of the year.

I'm not sure that's correct, fans can choose their mark and goal of the week, but the best of the year goes to a panel (KB sits on it I think).

 

[Brown n Gold]

Ryder to sit on the head of Sandilands in the next year or 2... That would be awesome to watch!

 

[WOTTAMACHINE]

Logan's was a ripper.. Ryder takes those sort of marks every week.. Ryder has set a high standard for himself.. In order for him to be in contention for mark of the year he has to be standing on Sandilands head..
But dont worry folks, it's just a matter of time before Russell Robertson enters the fray ..

 

[Rockford]

Have to give it to Logan too. Ryder gets a lot of height for a big man though

 

[Palmer Stoat]

Yep, agree with both points.

Nah, i dont think a panel has a say. Mark williams said the other week that Motlops never going to win a goal of the year simply because there isnt enough port supporters to support him, and this is proven by his goal at teh gabba beaten by a back heel goal from lloyd.

Chosen by the panel...and I must say, they were spot on

 

[Rabbit of Caerbannog]

The fans only decide the weekly winners. The AA selection panel then picks the best goal and mark from the final 22 nominations.

Bullshit, I could've done what Lloyd did.

Logan's mark was better, but an uncontested chest mark from an Essendon player would get more votes than David Rodan standing on the head of Aaron Sandilands.

If that's true, then it's changed since a few years ago.

From Wiki so not sure how accurate.

Selection process

After each round of the regular AFL season, the "mark of the week" nominations are determined by a panel of football experts. The general public can then vote for a weekly winner.[1][6] Following the conclusion of the season, the weekly winners are scaled down to a final three which football fans vote on, to determine the overall winner.[6] The title is given to a single mark, which is selected from the 25 weekly winners—which include twenty-two rounds of the standard AFL season and the first three weeks of the final playoffs—by the AFL All Australian selection committee; the public is not given an opinion in the final outcome. The winners are announced on Grand Final day.[6]

 

[Schulzenfest]

Fair enough. I assume Matthew Lloyd is on the All Australian selection panel then.

Haha, most likely

 

[Spadge]

19 people reckon Ryders mark was better than Logans?
either these people are one eyed Dons supporters or are blind? or both?

Logans by a mile!
