It was 20 years ago today legendary forward Tony 'Plugger' Lockett became the greatest goalkicker in history by surpassing Gordon Coventry's long-standing record of 1299 goals.
Lockett entered the round 10, 1999 game against Collingwood at the SCG needing three goals to achieve the feat. The adoring fans were at fever pitch as their superstar booted nine goals on a memorable day of football.

That record will never be broken so long as the AFL prioritises Athleticism over skill. In Lockets era there were numerous prolific goal scorers: Dunstall, Ablett, Lloyd where 100+ a season wouldn't win you the Coleman. Today you score 70 you're a good chance of wining it by a fair margin.

Blokes like Plugger & Dunstall didn't need to move outside of forward 50. Their brute strength alone made life hard for the full back in a one on one & they were surprisingly quick on a lead. Hopefully Buddy gets to 1,000 goals next season, but it'll be the last time we ever see that happen

If I remember right, one year, Plugger kicked 132 and didn't win the Coleman. Dunstall claimed it at around 139 during the regular season.

coaches interchanging a player after kicking a goal doesn't help either

@miniisdumb9602 2 года назад

Yeah because the quarters were 25 minutes, they literally played 5 quarters

@ashamandragon 2 года назад

9 goals and the 1300! What a game plugger!!!!!!

@utetopia1620 5 лет назад

And that perfect technique! Leans down into it, guides the ball to his foot, laces up. A lot of modern footballers would learn a lot watching this!

I remember seeing this as a 7-8 year old kid on TV it was a true jumping out of a seat moment and no sleep that night to my parents dismay :)

@calebsmith3015 5 лет назад

Imagine being Coventry and kicking 1299 that would suck

@cherylleanne8949 5 лет назад

It's as if this moment was meant to be. When he was on 1299, missed a shot off the deck in the goal square, then dropped a sitter which would have been straight in front from about 35. Was as if fate played a part that the delivery was from his great mate Paul Kelly

@coolcoconuts4453 3 года назад

To whoever decided to put a god damn ad just as he kicked the 1300th, I sincerely hope you wake up with 10,000 centipedes in your underpants tomorrow

@etho86 5 лет назад

With the modern state of set shot innacuracy, will this record ever be broken?

There is only one Tony lockett & one of many VLF/ AFL players never to win a premiership PS still one of the all time greats

Sydney held it for 20 years. And buddy is the closest now. Who knows!

Awesome 👍👍👍👍

@Jiffy_Park 5 лет назад

Going to be a loooooooong time until this record is broken. I'd guess 50+ years. Someone will need to kick 70+ goals per year over 15-20 years

@markradalj1801 5 лет назад

Sky Higher i don't think its ever going to happen again

@212mochaman 5 лет назад

Game's changed too much, full forwards don't exist, will never be broken

Buddy will get his 1000th next year, but he won't be Plugger's record

@no1else255 Год назад

1360 ihe got in the end so u would need 68 goals per year for 20 years .. only plugger

@agumtulba2838 5 лет назад

Buddy is a god. But, he is 31 years old. He might get like 2 extra years of footy but I don't know if he could catch up. I mean he will get 1,000 definitely. But I doubt he could get 1360. *But who knows?* *It's Buddy.*

if you ever want to see how far the game has fallen, just watch this video. Players like this just do not exist in the current game - nothing even close.
