Unfortunately I don't think he is in front I think the results calculator is stuffed. It is missing Sampis and Smith's Marks I think it has added them three together.

Ohh and I voted. Not because he's a Saint but because it is the best mark I have ever seen. Still shake my head every time I watch it.

i really like riewoldt's mark, but if i had to choose one mark to watch for the rest of my life, it would be moorcroft's.

That mark by Riewoldt had absolutely everything! Blind courage, brute strength and a freakish athletic ability to perform both simultaneously! An absolute standout grab!


When they created LENNY HAYES (in the shadow of Harvs) they forgot to break the mold (again)- hence the Supremely Incredible Jack Steven!!

Great mark by Roo no doubt

IMO T.Barker took one at moorabbin against hawthorn which was best I have ever seen.Unfortunately there was no footage of that game.Ironical thinking of that,on this sad day

And a couple by N Winmar spring to mind.

One at the G and one in particular on the members wing at Moorabbin.

i have one of his burned into my brain, on the members wing at moorabbin over michael tuck, right in front of me, when we scraped over the line against the hawks for the first time in about ten years. maybe 1990? was it this game?

I voted Rooey because at the time i thought it was amazing.

It is not the mark of the year because it never goes to the courageous marks like that, its always more spectacular or flashy, Roo's wads flashy in a different way.,

However by daylight, the second best mark I thought was Shaun Smith's.

Moorcrofts has been done a million times but I never saw anyone get as high as Smith. I swear he took a hanger every match just about.

Just voted by the way and Riewoldt is clearly ahead on 41% :D
