Moorcroft Mark Of The Year 2001 - Full Video

[nfldt1990]

That was a good mark but it wasn't Jeff Farmer1998

[MrHarryL]

In all serious though this is amazing

[MrHarryL]

Forget the mark, Scotty Lucas kicked it on his right foot!

[skrillexanddatsik]

Hawks for 2012 premiership :D

[Spore0001]

@skrillexanddatsik GO HAWKS!

[JohnnyMarr03]

Adam Ramanauskus had a perfect view of this mark!

[VictorYong36]

That would be far and wide around Australia in the next 100 years...I tell you how good is it, it will be on CNN- Special!!!!!!!

[DillZ91]

I cant believe this is not mark of the century, what a joke!

[AFFTL]

Hey Blue, I bet your still spewin you missed that mark, when you in the Cougar Bar & it was your shout to buy the drinks.

[MickkyLee]

who said scott lucas doesn't kick with his left foot!?!?!

[ElroyJetta]

Anyone else wish they could erase their memory so that they can see this again for the first time?

[Kcamneb1]

Wrong side for him, rather.

[Kcamneb1]

@VictorYong Wrong side of him, Lucas was a natural left footer.

[MrHevyw8]

am i the only one wondering why brad johnson is playing in defence?

[moorcroftkellie]

gazza actually took another spectacular mark over brad when they played against each other in the u/18s tac cup 1994 Northern Knights v's Western Jets white men can jump!!!!!

[VictorYong36]

long side of him, hooks it.....OWWWWWWWWWWWW WHATTA MARK!!!!!! SENSATIONAAAAALLLLLLLLL!

[Horrorbuff2]

DEEELICIOUS!

[gadsoz]

no other mark comes even close!

[thedub90]

u wont see a better mark in your lfetime

[theocemma]

no shit, ive seen so many marks and this has got to be one of the best !

[0657john]

mark of the century. without question.

[VictorYong36]

What.a.mark. Where's Bruce's speciaalllllllll?

[TrilogyHyperstation]

Life can be so cruel. Take one of the best marks in the history of the game, injure yourself so badly you basically never play again.

[31fishy]

wouldve been better if bruce said it was delicious

[barrydawson11]

brad johnson disliked this twice

[xxCrucifyMe]

Hooks it back.... OHHHHHHHHHH WHAT A MARK SENSATIONALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL­l

[TheFalloutExperience]

I've seen some fantastic marks like Gary Ablett Snr's and Andrew Walkers but this takes it. It was perfect, Moorcroft had air and he flexed is body. Mark of the millennium.

[MrSegatman]

how is the title of this video not: 'Scott Lucas on the Right'

[thecelts88]

The most amazing mark ever. Completely underrated too. Ive seen lists in "The Age" where they are placing it behind walker's chest mark?????

[Jagwa3]

World of Moorcroft!

[VictorYong36]

@KesmeisterG lol It did went on CNN.

[KezmeisterG]

I think it's funny how Bruce said it was so good it will be on CNN, I remember that it was on CNN too lol.

[hughgerection69]

shit i hope he got 3 votes haha

[DeniroPacinoDeppJoaq]

why is there a fox footy logo in the corner? it's obviously channel 7

[KezmeisterG]

@DeniroPacinoDeppJoaq Its probably a replay from Fox news but the game was televised on Prime.

[VictorYong36]

I am an Eagles supporter and this is much better than NicNat's from an Eagles' point of view!!!!

[starajiboy]

the greatest mark ever taken better than walkers and im a carton supporter...

[TheDeathbatOfA7X]

WHAT?

[krashdown102]

bloody lloyd trying to steal the goal 0:38

[Arvo92]

I remember going to this game, I was 9 at the time. Best mark ever.

[JohnnyMarr03]

the same year radiohead released amnesiac a year after kid a. great mark!

[metalandcricket]

whats more amazing? the moorcroft mark or lucas kicking on his right foot?

[knottyboy20]

i remember watching this game...moorcroft was on fire and this was the climax

[RoheeeeCricket]

gary moorcroft: the first person to see heaven and come back alive.

[4luckytrev]

woiooooooooowwww

[31fishy]

lol bruce mcavaney gets so into it

[daaaaaveska]

got this hanging up on my wall, signed and framed. best mark in history.

[TheRooster94]

Andrew Walker, eat your heart out. This is unbeatable.

[8ds100]

@TheRooster94 true.

[taiwanchicken]

fake and gay

[gescoats]

@taiwanchicken

You must be dumb...

I was at the game.

[joshrobdaddy]

0:54. All day!

[carerienzo]

And it's a goal when they point with both hands (6 points)

[carerienzo]

@CR4YO They are called goal umpireds

[CR4YO]

I fucking love those referees when they point after whatever they call the scoring kick..

[GamerFBI18]

1:40 for best camera angle of the mark.

[efcmetro1878]

Remember watching this on TV. Absolutely the best mark ever taken.

[010mikey]

mark of the century

[TheCompGame]

I need to start watching more matches!!!!

[SultanOfMischief]

I'm upset that at the age of 26, this is the first I've ever heard or seen of the AFL.

All the wasted years...

[123jethro]

@SultanOfMischief You didn't miss much. Shittest sport ever

[8ds100]

@123jethro Jealous much bet your a rugby flog that loves it from behind. faggot.

[colin4393]

@SultanOfMischief Haha!

[DiscoBort]

@SultanOfMischief I love it when people discover this game for the first time! It must be exciting!

[trinkle1000]

@SultanOfMischief When I read your comment I was wondering what country you live in?

[mattygrill]

This mark actually ruined his career and gave him OA in his hip

[watermelonandpotato]

@TheSlayer95 He wrecked his hip when he came down (You can see him clutch at it as he walks back to take his shot on goal)

[mynaemizdisc]

1:15

[elgrau1]

watch NFL

[wnatry69]

1:38 hands on shoulder, great mark but sorry Walkers Mark was Better.

[925Oscar]

0:44 Does he say," Our nigga Chris..."?

[willmcc]

@925Oscar "I reckon Chris..."

[Gillysbiggestfan]

@925Oscar "I reckon Chris". You need to learn Australian slang mate.

[925Oscar]

@Gillysbiggestfan

My bad. Not currently a high priority to learn Australian slang for an American. haha

[Ozziecar96]

brad johnson in backline?

[xFUNDAVEx]

how many goals did he end up kicking that game?

[TheArtfuldodger84]

man I just rubbed out one out watching this!

[cjbreban]

Still the best.

[nickycooks]

the fucks a mark?

[mikeFrze]

@nickycooks the act of catching the ball in AFL

[buddyhugehuge]

@mikeFrze from a kick (not a handball)

[timmeyjay]

@nickycooks haha foreigner!

[888stevieg]

@nickycooks the term mark is derived from the native australian(aboriginal) word 'markee' which means, to catch something :)

[joshrobdaddy]

@888stevieg is it really? i didnt know that

[itsbeefy11]

mark of the millennium?

[TJayee1]

Best mark ever.

[TheDjparagon]

...agreed,I'm a collingwood supporter and you have to admit....Probably best mark in my lifetime...

[harmonicminorshred]

Sports, lol.

[blaizethefootylegend]

Mark of the decade

[salsa32]

greatest mark of all time, no question.

brilliant call from Bruce Mc-

seriously makes my eyes water, everytime I see it.

[BIGDAZR]

i was a the game i am doggies fan i still jumped out of seat

[DaRkCaBoOdLe137]

@BIGDAZR i am a bulldogs fan too but i can appreciate the greatness of this mark

[HAS1productions]

his son will be just as good

[FMTHEFOX]

wow only essendon can do that

[JaRmInDy]

first and only time Brad Johnson isn't smiling

[scoots1008]

Garey morcroft plays now t my local footy club he is now kicking 8 goals a game

[SillyDillyMan1]

UNNNNBBBBBEEEELLLIIIVVEEBBBBBL­LLLLLEEEEEE!

[blaizethefootylegend]

better than the Jezzalinko mark

[PeteyPabz]

hands in the back

[AlfyLanger20]

@PeteyPabz nah theyd let that go.

[tkl777able]

Unfortunately after taking this mark he cracked his hip and was never as good a player again.

[Cocuzza27]

WINNING



[cmg3737]

Awesome!!!!

[PerversePoster]

Best mark ever taken.

[gavdogyy1]

Ohhh JezzaMoorcroft

[Thexderx]

Hate Essendon, but what a mark. None better in the history of football.

I believe he suffered badly from the hip damage from this mark.

[blaizethefootylegend]

@Thexderx worth it

[hirdy6]

Great mark, even Robert Walls couldn't find any shit to put on it. I actually reckon

Bruce McAvaney fired a shot.

[DrakL0rd]

his son is in my class

[Jay4P]

0:41 it's the woman that supports the Bulldogs from the "This is me" metro ad on during the footy on the right.

[aidanstaff69]

Screamers are brilliant!!! Come the dons 2011

[calcar16]

The "SCREAMER"...The greatest spectacle of any sport in the world. Prove me wrong

[jakerboy80000]

I play footy against his son

[bisgina]

mark of the century.

[willandshaylin2008]

the greatest mark youll ever seen i despise essendon the only 1 i think ranks up with it is abrahams against port adelaide

[RichmondHasArrived]

Shutup Bruce!

[lasoo88]

@Sturt16. Bloody oath! His job in the panel is to be the statistics man and nothing else. When epic moments like this happen, he should just shut up and not speak.

[Sturt16]

@lasoo88 Exactley. He's a huge pain in the ass on Ten these days as well.

[kadaitcha72]

Robert Walls has a grudge against Essendon cos hes nowhere near as good a coach as sheeds.Clearly the best mark EVER in the history of the afl.

[Sturt16]

Robert Walls ruins it at 2:26. Bruce and Dermey are having a great time then boring Walls who doesn't even sound excited interrupts and tells us a fact that Bruce had already said.

[AlfyLanger20]

@Sturt16 they would have asked him for that stat, he still gets listed as a commentator. and he didnt speak till 2mins after the mark so im sorry but thats plenty of time for bruce and dermey to talk their stuff.. either way it was an awesome mark, why try and find something to bitch about? how did it ruin it? the mark was still just as good whether walls spoke or not.

[Sturt16]

@AlfyLanger20 I already explained how he ruined it. Well he only ruined it when he spoke. Cut the video off at 2:25 and you will be fine

[TheMackattack10]

moorcroft never would have taken this mark if lucas got onto his left foot he would have put it through the middle post high

[ksufrn]

Shame the fall ruined his career but it was worth it. Best mark ever.

[AlfyLanger20]

@ksufrn no it didnt? his knee injury did

[SaintsPkU]

@AlfyLanger20 yes it did... he stuffed his hip out..

[epicrapbattle8122]

@ksufrn why did it end his career?

[AlfyLanger20]

@epicrapbattle8122 when he landed it broke his hip, even though he didnt really show it. was never the same again

[godoffutbol]

Yo Moorcroft got ups !!! Classic mark !!!!

[godoffutbol]

Yo Moorcroft got ups !!!

[ZeppelinFloydRoses]

I was at that game. All i remember is Essendon winning and the mark. I was 9 years old :)

[coolknot1]

what's johnno doing down back?

[hoever06]

@coolknot1 Having a bath.

[jhardyrules13]

party time with gary moorcroft!

[TheXenomorph1980]

"Delicious"

[tommywm24]

No matter who you go for...this will always be the best mark of all time

[APH1991]

@tommywm24, undoubtedly.

The likes of Roach, Baker, Jesaulenko, Bosustow, N Riewoldt and Farmer have nothing on this most (in Bruce's voice) UNBELIEVABLE MARK.

[DillZ91]

the fucking best of all-time imo, im a essendon supporter but fuck me you cant say that this is one of the most sensational grabs of all time

[Martena56]

"ooooowwwwAAAWWWWWWWW!!!"

[Gillysbiggestfan]

@Martena56 WHAT A MARK!!!! SENSAAAATIONAAALLLLL!!!!

[mdschivo]

It's that good that only Shaun Smith's mark in 1995 can rival it. I love Dermott cackling afterwards. It gets better each time you watch it. Almost makes marks like Goddard's on the weekend look pedestrian. As Bruce says - SENSATIONAL!!!!

[mdschivo]

And also, notice right at the time the mark is taken, the volume at the ground and in the commentary box was turned up to 11 immediately to almost blow the roof off the joint. Dermott loves it, and Bruce didn't sound like such a knob back then.

[mdschivo]

This was actually in 2001. I love on the replay how Bruce say unbeLEIVABLE - his voice drops down about 4 octaves into that deep growl that he's got.

I don't think Bruce would say Moorcroft is "delicious" like Cyril, but this mark was so delicious that it would've won Masterchef.

[Borgmeister100]

was this the same game as Christ Grant's goal to end the bombers streak

[stupidfurnace]

@Borgmeister100 nah that was in 2000. btw this was the best half of football i think anyone could ever play, capped off beautifully with this grab!

[addycorp2]

haha derm party time

[cunners1000]

best mark of all time, came out of no where

[2brave2handle]

this mark ended his career, so the impact of taking the greatest grab of all time was alot in the end ...but he was a great player during the Essendon three year golden era.

[REDROOST68]

B E A U T I F U L

[BlakesMercury]

lol

was there

luv bruse in this

[willandshaylin2008]

bruce is funny they should carry him off at half time its probably the best mark ever i always rated winston abrahams against port adelaide as the best ive seen but seeing that probably tops it

[joshuatreebje]

It actually did get shown on cnn!

[dragons4ever2007]

@joshuatreebje well, do you know if there is ANY ACTUAL CNN footage of the mark?

[gimmick101]

@dragons4ever2007 The footage is on the Channel 7 DVD: 100 years of AFL! But I haven't seen it on Youtube...

[supadoggy]

@gimmick101 Yeah, I've seen the clip on video. Any chance you could put it on youtube for us?

[hoever06]

@gimmick101 Put it on YouTube.

[10theant7]

i reckon he would've been penalised for hands in the back if he took that mark this year :( but what come can be said other than WATTA MARK, SENSATIONAL!!

[MrTheodosios]

It was a mongrel kick but how do you mark the mongrels?

[stupidfurnace]

Love you Bruce "That'll be on CNN". Would love to see u get that excited this week!

[TruBlu1901]

mark of the century!

no one will ever match that.

[timosh78]

Best mark ever

[aleco1991]

I am a doggies fan but I LOVE that mark!

[SDLUKEC]

No one will beat that mark!!!!!!!!!!

[Northisbest]

lololololol good mark little man

[Choungui]

amazing. but goddam he looks like Rorschach

[essendonFC4eva]

will never be out done. The fact that he is a short forward, playing from behind and he still managed to get his feet right in the middle of johnsons back... LITTLE RIPPER..

[leonjw11]

best mark in AFL history

[manifold361]

James Hird in the ruck and scott lucas o his right foot. wtf mate

[DillZ91]

abosolute ripper!

[phsTRD]

that is fucking insane.

[Jezza46]

It was on the Heart Of The Game DVD marking 45 years of footy on Seven, and that mark was featured as well as the CNN item after it. Bruce was right on the money when he said that it'll be on CNN because that was such a sensational mark. So SPECIAL!

[Choungui]

I remember that the bombers had a really long winning streak back then, and that it was the Dogs that ended it - was it this game?

[bhazler]

Nah that was 2000. Essendon had won every game in 2000 before losing in round 21 to the dogs. I was shattered!

This mark was absolutely amazing though

[OlympicHell]

Nah, it was the year before.

[Cammo297]

nah

[daw0005]

na man that was 2000 this is 2001 although bombers still finished top of ladder

[Choungui]

He looks exactly like Rorschach!
