Favourite Swans Goal Ever

**Sandridge** · 2nd December 2011, 08:22 PM

Reading about Brad Seymour in the Favourite Number 7s thread got me wondering about what Bloods supporters would consider to be their favourite Swans goal ever. (Seymour kicked a goal that I just love in Kelly and Dunkley's last ever game in 2002!)

Would it be Plugger's record breaking goal? One of Davis' goals in the last quarter of that final? Amon's goal that put us in front in the 2005 GF? Or something a bit more obscure but special to you for some reason? (I have very fond memories of a goal that Stevie Hoffman kicked in 1970 at the Lake Oval that got us over the line against the all conquering Magpies!)

Would love to hear other people's thoughts!

-Pluggers 1300
- Nick Davis "I see it but I don't believe it"
-Kel's incredible effort v Norf
-Robbie Ahmat runs and runs and runs v Norf
-Hall's Captains goal in the Grand Final
-Tadgh's pirouette v Lions
-Creswell after the siren v Norf
- Magic gives it to the Weagles crowd on 06
- Bradshaw's 150m torp
- Jettas first goal
- Maxfield from the boundary to win the game v Norf

etc etc etc

Great memories

I don't play favorites, I love them all.

They're all good, but that's the one.

Yes, but there are always some that stand out ... There are always some that are (McAvanish) special ...

Cue, Big Al's list, then add

Tilt's only ever goal. It was talked about for a while (and now, still is).

And then there are some Capper specials, but most of those were just slotted goals after some outstanding marks. But that's a whole new subject

Yeah, Davis. Nothing comes close for mine. It helps that I was at the game, and right in line with the ball as it sailed through. Just unbelievable.

Davis last goal against Geelong was sooooooo sweet. Ahmat would be next.
Pluggers goal was an iconic moment but not a great goal.
Any goal that meant we beat the Roos is good in my book.

That one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one and that one.
Stuey's 75 meter bouncer Port EF 2003.
Baz's goal after the siren against Brisbane.
Kirky's last goal last game.
Brad Seymour's goal against I think Carlton, when he raced around doing pony prances with excitement.

oh dear, the list will be never ending.

Growing up through the 60s being a Swans supporter was a tough gig. That goal by Stevie was sheer absolute joy and a chance to give it all back to the maggots. I don't think iv'e ever been happier than that day.

Oh, bless you for remembering that goal, too! It was a VERY happy day and I was able to "give it back" to some Collingwood supporters at school who'd had many years of fun at my expense!
