It’s insane to think Eddie was kicking GOTY in 2006 and is still one of AFL’s most exciting players, truly an immortal legend. Just goes to show that you can be one of the GOATs and still never get to play in a premiership team. Also, renaming it the Bett’s goal of the year would be 100% appropriate
There have been many great indigenous players over the years and a few that have achieved the highest honor, but their over representatiion in goal and mark of the year says many of them posess freakish skills others can rarely achieve.Go Eddie and still love you wherever you play next year.
Some of Eddie’s goals are impossibly outworldly! If you go to the ground and look at the goal posts from the corner, you see one post! How can he do that? Some magic!
Dear AFL and UA-cam, Thanks for putting this on my reccomended It's a break from all the stress of grand final eve I also sign the petition to make it the eddie betts medal
I wonder if any of the commentators look back and think, “I really did that moment zero justice.” A cautionary tale to our modern day commentators who love crapping on about nicknames and midweek “controversies” to actually pay attention to the game and get excited by good play.
Dman Ffff no way, he’s certainly the most freakish indigenous player and 3rd best forward pocket of all time. Dunstall, Ablett Snr, Lockett, Carey, kernahan, modra are way better goalkickers, they all kicked more than 700 goals, the list goes on. Best small forward of the modern era.
chris yarran was one of the most exciting players in the afl at his best he made the game fun, not one of those boring inside ball winner, but a players who runs and takes the game on
Yeah! I was devo'd, because I believe he would've gone down as one of the best players of all time. We didn't even get to see him develop into his prime
2:288:239:0310:54 Eddie betts might be the best small forward and the most exciting player ever. Especially in his prime with the crows. SACA should rename the Adelaide Oval hill to the Eddie Betts end
Jack Sharland It wasn't better than either of Franklin's goals. His second was from the 75 metre mark. His first, 2010, was from half back. He is phenomenal. Balantyne's and Kerr's goals were amazing! Ok, to clarify, Eddie Betts is a sensational player and his goals are top shelf. Higgins goal is a throw too. I was so pissed off when the ump paid it.....then again, how often do AFL players get away with incorrect disposal these days? I know, All of the time!
Just seeing aker again reminded me of a Collingwood sign I saw years ago that iv always remembered. "Hey Aker, your a wacker, take your bloody blabber back to the Gabba"...now that from a Collingwood fan is a gold star right there seeing how most of them didn't finish primary school! Lol
BenProductions if he kicks 6 goals including goal of the year he should. How else can a forward get 3 votes? If you think sloane deserved it that match you’re a nuffy
Shriekin Leada yeah but your point was it was his 300th game like that matters in brownlow voting.. secondly kicking goal of the year won’t give you any votes.. however yes 6 goals is impressive on face value but there is a lot of football than goals.
BenProductions well you replied as if that was the only factor taken into account. Obviously they shouldn’t just give it to milestone players. However a player that old kicking 6, including the best goal of the year should be getting 3 votes from a performance perspective
Has anyone been able to do what Betts did in the history of AFL? Not only most extraordinary goals in footy, he almost defied the laws of physics, certainly what you would have thought was possible.
It’s the fact that he did it on his left foot. People don’t understand how much practice it takes and how gifted you have to be to kick like that on your opposite foot.
I hope you make it to a match. Always great to hear people from other countries who love our great game. Hard to beat being one of 90,000 voices roaring in celebration of a great goal.
Betts , Franklin and Akermanis were the few that did this nearly every week during that period . Betts though ...... just pure magic
I'll never get tired of hearing Brad Johnson celebrating Eddie's 2019 GOTY.
For real ✌️
The Eddie Betts Medal. Come on AFL, give the man his flowers.

Game used to be fantastic. Be mindful that more than half of these goals happened when footy was at its best, now it is very different.

Cause his goal this year wasn’t very good and it’s not about Eddie
Xtremehomiehud I’d love to see you kick a better goal
Dingo_ yeah 😂
Leon Davis' efforts to win that ball then kick a tough goal is just amazing.
I love seeing the sheer amount of Indig talent in the AFL and how so many of the goals of the year have been Indig ones

doug harrison or maybe it’s due to their culture, lack of opportunities, disadvantaged backgrounds and the fact they are treated differently.
I think Goodes tops eddie personally. Scored some rippers and was at the top for a decade at least
well they did possibly invent the game
@@slinkid9410 don’t forget Andrew Macleod, hard to believe he has won this at least one year.

Some of the best goal kickers are indigenous
What legends
2018 one is the most special. What a smart move!
ok. jack higgins' goal was so crazy. well done
Also a throw, so ya know, shouldn't really count
@@sammilne4346 bullshit mate haha

im happy i came to australia! from russia
Jack Higgins best goal. Creative and fast thinking
Great goals Eddie
The Daniel Wells one was the best. He kicked it in mid air. I don't really know how you can top that.
Great goals from betts
Some really great goals really missing footy atm
oh my god that Jack Higgins one was insane!
Eddie Betts last entry was the best goal I’ve ever seen
Eddie is unbelievable
I also loved 2016 Eddie Betts he is superstar
Wells goal was pretty fast since he did it mid air. 1:40
Brings back the memories
As a Power supporter, I can appreciate Eddie's kicks from that pocket
I wonder if any of the commentators look back and think, “I really did that moment zero justice.”
A cautionary tale to our modern day commentators who love crapping on about nicknames and midweek “controversies” to actually pay attention to the game and get excited by good play.
I'm pretty sure they were excited by Eddie's winner this year, all of Eddie's winners in fact.
"now you see him, now you don't, pulls a rabbit out of the hat and kicks a goal" sensational commentary
Any time a commentator says it’s goal/mark of the year/season/century I cringe
The “that was a MCG special” from Bruce was top notch.
Higgins for Behind Of The Year 2018, unrivalled...
So many from WCE 🦅
The Best goals are definitely the 2004 and 2018 ones. Well at least the most creative!

Holy fuckhahahhahah
Betts 2015. Doesn’t get any better than that. If you don’t believe me, try and kick a torp on your non-preferred foot and get back to me.
I can't even kick a torp on my preffered foot. A guy at school showed me how to kick them. But i was never able to get the timing right.
From 50 on the boundary with pressure too! What a magician
I can only kick a torp on my non preferred.
That jack higgins goal was crazy
Ik it was crazy
Elliot has done a better version of it
Leon Davis goal is probably the best
I'm a Collingwood man but Eddie Betts it's by far one of if not the greatest goal kickers of all time

Yeah! I was devo'd, because I believe he would've gone down as one of the best players of all time. We didn't even get to see him develop into his prime
You're aloud 15 steps. I slowed it down and he bounced it on his 15th step. Was a perfect goal. Not sure what you're talking about.@@electricmaster23
Eddie's the king but Higgins goal takes the cake!

damn Matt White got that Fast and Furious gearbox - he just kept going faster and faster
Daniel Wells 2004 best goal ever
3 of eddies goals were in the same place but 3rd one was down a little further btw i go for crows and he is my favorite player
Mr Footy to bad he’s leaving
2011 Ballantyne holy moly that was a beauty
No matter how much you dislike Eddie, you have to give him credit for his craftiness and footwork
Eddie Betts will go down as a Legend of the game.
Betts first one with Carlton tops my list 👌
Eddie's this year was most deserved of them all
Are you joking
Nah dude, otherwise I wouldn't have said it
piss off it was the worst of the lot tippa should have got it

How bout that Leon Davis goal, what a gun
Went to Northam Senior High with him in 1995. Played basketball. Lunch time was the Leon Davis show.
