Re: Sam Walsh Mark of the Year
Reply #15 –
Cornes is just a Carlton Hater. I thought Sam's mark was the best this year though I thought the Bobby Hill mark was pretty good as well. If Hill had received the Mark of the Year I don't think it would have been as bad as the Jeremy Howe decision last year or Andrew Walker in 2011. It is a bit like the Goal of the year. I thought the Newnes goal was the best for the year but I thought the Daicos one was a pretty fair effort.
If we are being really super honest, as mightily courageous as it was (John Brown and Nick Riewoldt like), it wasn't mark of the year in the vein of Jeremy Howe, Shaun Smith, Andrew Walker (Mark of the Year that was robbed) etc. Kane is a knob but as he said, there were probably better high marks (ie spectacle). But lets not begrudge the kid, it was super.
