Except Hurns dribbles through while Dustins went 5 rows back, have a cry FFS it was 3 years ago.

I'm not having a cry about it and I'm not meaning any disrespect to it, merely pointing out the victorian football media are obsessed with the 'Big 4' clubs. Same with Goddard's goal really.

The same round Fletcher kicked that huge goal in '07, Hurn kicks an identical goal just as big, if not bigger. Fletcher's gets nominated for goal of the week, Hurn barely gets mentioned

Fletchers was kicked from further out and went further back. But nah Hurn's was better.

My bad, went about 2 metres further

 

[Lance Uppercut]

Fletcher's one last night went a fair bit further than that though. Anyone got youtube? That would be awesome

There was another video about of Ben Graham's kickout at Kardinia Park vs Port Adelaide which cleared the centre circle. Can't find it now though.


Here's a few from the minor leagues:

Have seen Stewie Dew and Nathan Eagleton also kick massive roosts from within the square, both at port and at the hawks/bulldogs.

Fletcher has got a lovely kick on him.

Only saw dustin's goal once, but if it was touched, no matter how slight, then its not a goal.

would have been nerar impossible to tell. It went our way so as the records will show it was a goal. Even on the replays it was hard to call. You win some you lose some. Huge roost though.

If I remember rightly, the last time Fletch done that in 2007, didn't he do himself a mischief? Injured his leg or knee or something?

I think Goddard's is the biggest kick, but it wasn't that far out.

Quinten Lynch kicked a monster drop punt against North.

ryan griffen kicked a massive one against the crows last year, had a nice roll on it.

 

[winty]

that is phenomenal!! Hint though, you have to take the "v=" part out of your youtube tag if you want the fine denizens of BigFooty to be able to appreciate it

Need to take the V out mate.

Oops!

Thanks guys.

I remember Gary Ablett senior bombing a goal from adjacent the centre circle at Optus Oval against Fitzroy in 1992. Haven't been able to find footage of it on youtube though (which is probably just as well, considering my last attempt to post a youtube clip. )

Will take a fair effort to top that.

the man on the mark was standing in the centre circle. quite a fair effort.

Lol. You keep telling yourself that champ.

Didn't Croad kick a goal that just kept bouncing and bouncing and bouncing a couple of years back from the wing? It was at Aurora IIRC.

 

[Soul_Pie]

It's a good way of beating the flood when you can bomb it from 70 metres.

Wish we saw more of it.

 

[damochandler]

yeah it's something he would do. have a crack at the goals from the centre. he id one of the longest jicj's in the game

 

[nosaints4flag09]

Gram kicked one like that against the Western Bulldogs a few weeks back. Didn't get a second mention. Fletcher does it, and it's apparently the second coming of christ.

Not to undermine it, but everything Essendon-related always seems to be overhyped. Great goal though. That man has amazing legs.

hey did you want a tissue aswell?

 

[The Fireman]

I have always marveled at Dustins abilities , the guy is ledge of the game.

Lol Hurn's was bigger.

Such a shame threads like these turn into cat-fights between petty girls instead of a way to marvel at why we love this game of ours so much.

Some absolutely fantastic goals in this thread.

This would be one of the highest, kicks I have seen.

No doubting Fletcher is the best out there for long goals ... ever since Benny Graham left anyway.
