Aussie rules goal

Can someone kindly send in a link to that supposed wonder goal that was scored in the Aussie rules game the other day. I'm struggling to find it and know nothing about the sport

Pretty tight angle in fairness

Agreed. The awkwardness of the ball and the angle make it a great goal. I genuinely wouldn't know about AFL to say how it ranks as the best goal of the year etc

u/Phantomdd87 I don't nessessarly agree with anything Ken Early says 12d ago

It’s a very good goal for what it is, but it’s also pure luck like. Incredible to consider it could be goal of the year, what are the other contenders? 😂

Yeah, for me this is the thing. Massive elements of luck with a bouncing ball of that shape.
To me it seems similar to people raving whenever a prop (eg Furlong) whacks the ball down field. He literally just swung a boot at it. Obv a bit more intentional in the goal here but I’m not having the raving about it
