There has never been a better player in terms of excitement. Number 3 against the Pies may have been goal of the year in 1989. Probably the best piece of play I’ve seen ever to kick that goal post high from 45m on the run in the mud and rain with a heavy ball in the last quarter.
So you run a highlight reel of arguably the most naturally gifted athlete and player the game has ever seen and it lasts less than 2 minutes? Could have had his highlights from his 14 goals vs Essendon, more highlights from the '89 grand final. Arguably the most famous kick in finals football history with his goal vs North in '94. Pretty poor effort from the AFL here.
I am Indian my name is Sabir I am playing footy from 8/12/2019 and my team name is BRISBANE LIONS in Maharashtra Mumbai in Govandi my club name is Govandi footy club
The goal that he kicked on the run from outside the 50 on the boundary line against Essendon at VFL Park in the 1989 Preliminary Final was a special moment that should have gotten included on this list. His 10th goal against Essendon in the MCG shootout in 1993 when the ball bounced over James Hird's head and he kicked a reverse banana goal the wrong way is worth a mention too.
Poor effort AFL his stuff in the eighties was out of control and theres footage of it. Massive one handed hangers, long bombs on the run after beating 2,3,4 opposition players. After seven vfl games he played for the Victoria and kick 8 from a flank against a gun WA Side that won the game..
Watch this at 7 minutes, 15 seconds. ua-cam.com/video/QhlHc6WVbDI/v-deo.html He does it here in his days at Hawthorn from a throw in (not as spectacular but he obviously did this more than we knew!) He’s a freak!
The greatest to have played the game. Absolute gun.

This guy alone almost turned me into a Geelong supporter at the time, if he was playing, I was watching. Greatest footballer ever, by a long way too.
I legit get goose bumps watching this master at work
The legend will always be..
one of the greatest.
@Aaron Aitchison I'm a Pies supporter and Ablett Snr is hands down the best player I've seen from any club. Total genius and freak.
I used to think Gary Ablett was the best ever, then I watched Gary Ablett play.
Can never forget that goal after the siren against north 94
carey showed ablett who is best that day
@@Megalosmalakas1977 Carey went missing in the last quarter when the game needed to be won.
I saw Gazza in time zone many years ago... he was with his son, jnr... he was HUGE.... I have a few other Gazza stories.... G town is a small town.
What he could do with the football really elevated the game as a whole, go watch more of his highlights - there are hours worth.
Just a shame about his off-field antics and lifestyle.
the best
Incredible player
It was great to see him in the 89 grand final- bloody champion
Love Gary abllet
Magician Ablett,what a freak of nature.
And his son Gary Jr wasn't half bad eihter.
Greatest ever afl
Layer by a long way. A long way Then there was Polly

Exactly, as a hawthorn fan I really admire what Garry Snr was able to do on the footy field, what a weak list for a player of his talents
It’s says ‘Fantastic Five’ right there in the title. It’s not meant to be an extensive highlight reel.
Geelong is the worst
@@christodoulofamilychristod6796 Worst comment..congrats.
@@thufferin5664 you are the worst
#5 no where near his best moments
They don't call him "God" for nothing. What an absolute legend.
God with a capital G.
What a magician.
Love Geelong!

Number 4 isn’t even the best goal Ablett kicked in that 1989 prelim.

The Michael Jordan of AFL
G.O.A.T
Gary Ablett kicking the goal from the throw in the 1989 GF was the first time I'd seen that happen.
Watch this at 7 minutes, 15 seconds.

GO GEELONG YOU MIGHTY CATS
YOY
either.
They should do one for Lance "Buddy" Franklin.
Paul Couch
That was not a mark.
Umpire called it a mark, therefore it's a mark
I said it's not, therefore it's not. My adjudication negates any decision made by an umpire, Regards DF
Hahahahahaha!!!
It's a mark cob
Look at this toss
Spelt God wrong
Reply Jarman Crows Grand Final
The guy was a freak. Still reckon at their peak Jnr was better..
Cats are ok
Ablett jnr is better , and he didnt leave a young lady to die in a hotel room either .
Better than Jnr.
To this day i still believe 2 wasn’t a mark
Damn haven't learned the rules to this day?
How about that one where he got a young girl killed? Classic.
someone’s not happy
@애정EM💞 some girl he picked up snorted some of his heroin - which she thought was coke - ended up overdosing.
STFU
Yep best of all time noone does it like gaz caught out of position and still found a way to kick a goal
