As far as I'm concerned, great marks should be not necessarily about height, but how much competition to get the grab. Jezza's against Richmond in 1969 at Princes Park was better because of competition.
From what I just read, this mark created the Mark of the year award. I don't know, I don't follow AFL. But still, if that is the case, why should people get over something, that created a piece of history?
This is the best mark of all time ... Shaun Smith's mark was good as well but Jezza had the height and balance. He didn't fall over after he took it .. landed like a cat - all class.
I think it's just the pure symmetry and fluency of the whole action of Jezza and the movement of the surrounding players that makes it so great. It's as if it was all scripted and planned. There have been heaps and heaps of high marks but this one just flows.
@REDROOST68 If you dont like it, then dont watch it, if you are to much of a loner to be watching a friggin video about a team you dont support, Go to Hell
@REDROOST68 u cunt. Who cares if there are better marks in 80's 90's and 00's its not about that. It's about celebrating and preserving the history of such a great game. This mark is famous because of the damn good commentary, the fact that it was taken in a grand final oh and also cos its a sick mark. So don't tell people to move on and forget about the legends of the game............ya dick
I'm tired of idiots like that. 'Oh, let's just forget about all the history and move on.' I bet it's those sort of people who are responsible for changing the goal umpire uniform. Save Aussie rules from the yuppies!
Alex Jesaulanko- This mark will forever be edged in time. Its gracefull , spectacular and has all the ingredients of a perfect mark. Whats more interesting is that the camera work back in the 70's dose not do it justice and it still stands out as one of the greats. Furthur more ,it was also taken in a Grand Final with so much at stake. The modern game was born - Hand ball , Hand ball at all costs cried Barassi which saw the game swing Carlton way. The rest is folklore!!
theres no way thats the best mark ever, its just cos of the "ohh jesaulenko u beauty" , Gary Moorcroft from essendon 2001 mark of the year , absoulutley amazing
That should have been the VFL Mark of the century.
Capper, Modra, White and Burton have all taken bigger marks in the AFL and a guy named Ian Hanna probably took the Australian Football mark of the century in the 70s in the sanfl with a leap higher than Jezza's off of 2 steps and a one handed grab with snap goal. If someone has Ian Hannas Mark of the Year on video id love to see it on here as it would blow peoples minds.
Best mark of all time.
