You have to be joking.
If you know anything about Goddard you will know that he is probably the most intense and fiercely competitive Saint playing for us.
Just look at the way he gave Zac a serve telling him to pull his finger out during the game.
So IMO I doubt very much that Goddard, when it is still is at a critical stage of the game, would focus on "hitting" the Freo Cheer Squad rather than just foccusing on the game and in kicking the goal.
IMO he would not even have been thinking about the cheersquad, or anyone behind the goals. His only thought would have been to ice the goal.
If you don't want to risk being hit by a football...sit on level 3.
So the best kick just about in the AFl happened to miskick it. Of course he was aiming for the cheer squad. Id be pretty sure he wasnt trying to hurt anyway but he was aiming at them.
Where exactly did I say he mis-kicked it?
I believe he was just aiming for goal. He only got the cheersquad because they were behind the goals. very much doubt that he even thought about the crowd at all.
Does he kick like that normally. I will answer for you. No. By the way if Pav did the same how would it be on this board today?
Silly argument, Pav would never have had space and time to run into an open goal
I would hope that (accident or deliberate does not matter), BJ enquired after the kid (apparently he was treated by first aid) and not necessarily apologise but at least show some concern.

And you would know that to be a fact p66 because you know everything.

It is my opinion just like you have your opinions. The only thing I know as fact is we had less than 32K members last year as the club admitted. Funny you cant admit it.
my coach always told me....when kicking for goal pick something.....read someone.....to aim at.....big deal....kid should have marked it...or ducked......he's a freo supporter ffs...harden the f*** up pple....
.everybody still loves lenny....and we always will

However, freedom of expression is not encouraged in certain forums.
This is a very serious issue which could easily spiral out of control...
In fact, I won't suprised if we soon see legislation that bans footy's in public places... given that can be used as a weapon.
I can just see it now...

"Police are on the hunt for a man who robbed an elderly lafy at the loacl ATM machine. Witnesses say that a man dressed in a Carlton jumer and ski mask was een across the road where he launched a left foot drop punt.. hitting the lady in the head and knocking her to the gorund.
Upon which time, he ran across to collect his footy and run off with $150 in cash".

The cheer squad sits right behind the goal. When BJ kicked the goal, he was virtually directly in front. Where else was he going to aim the ball? Into the empty seats on the right? And miss the goal?
Get a grip. It's a game of footy. You sit behind the goals, you know the risks.
If the AFL doesn't like it they can leeave the nets in place.
The more you know, the more you know you don't know.
When I was a young child, I knew that I knew so much about so much.
Now that I am old and know so much more, I know that I know so much about so little, and so little about so much.

This thread has some use at least.
Its been interesting to find out who shares an unbiased fair and balanced opinion.

The idea that a professional footballer lining up for a crucial, hurried shot on goal in the middle of a close game, without 100% certainty that he wasn't about to be run down, would have the time to think "hey, I'll deliberately aim at the crowd and hurt somebody" is the most ridiculous thing I've ever read on Saintsational.
He stabbed at it because - like most players - he thought that he was less likely to miss that way than if he kicked it high in the air.
Get real.....
100% Correct.
Some people are just plain stupid.
Great analysis!
Very balanced! And very detailed and precise...Very in depth.
Much unlike the simple explanation he just wanted to nail it into the crowd....Considering it was an open goal.
Its not a coincidence only supporters on here cant acknowledge he drilled it in....Funny how the rest of the football world can.

Just had the promo for sport here in Perth and BJ is apologising to a WA Footy fan ao I assume that is what it is about unless of course he is apologising fir us winning the game
Of course he drilled it ! Right through the big sticks for a goal !
The fact that a kid copped it was unfortunate but BJ did not consciously single the kid out as some may suggest.
Unfortunate yes, deliberate no.
Great win by the way, lucky he did drill it and made sure it went through. What would be saying if BJ missed it because we find out later that he didnt want to hit the kid in the freo cheersquad ?

So far about three.
Yes amazing how Goddard anticiapted that the kid would stand up on his seat and try and mark the ball....just so good ole dead eye dick BJ could knock him over!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If the kid had not stood up on the seat the ball would have sailed into the empty seats behind him...but yet some in this thread have BJ as deliberately picking out the cheer squad to hit them....
BJ is just very competitive....the type of guy that will slam it home rather than dribble it through...and that is all it was despite the conspiracy theories.
