THIS week Daniel Motlop has been nominated for both the Toyota AFL Mark and Goal of the Year Awards for his outstanding match against Essendon on Sunday.
His nomination for Mark of the Year came during the second quarter when he soared over a pack of players to take a great grab in front of goals.
Motlop earned his nomination for Goal of the Year in the third quarter when he collected the loose ball, weaved past multiple Essendon players to snap his seventh goal.
Power fans can view and vote for Motlop at www.afl.com.au/markgoal. Voting is open from the Monday after each round through to the following Sunday night. In 2008, the winners of the Toyota AFL Mark and Goal of the Year awards will each receive;
