AFL fans have adjudged former East Fremantle player and now key back for Geelong, Harry Taylor, as having taking the Round 6 Toyota Mark of the Week, which in turn means that he is now in the running for the Toyota AFL Mark of the Year.
The mark, taken at Subiaco Oval, in the clash against Fremantle when the Geelong side escaped with a narrow 1 point victory, was a spectacular pack mark in the 2nd quarter. Taylor, who was opposed to Matthew Pavlich for a majority of the game, rated the crowd at Subiaco Oval as the loudest he had ever heard. “The noise that the Fremantle crowd generated was absolutely amazing. I have played at the Telstra Dome with the roof closed, and nothing has been as loud as the Subi crowd”.
Taylor, now joins another former East Fremantle player in Paddy Ryder, who was awarded the Round 4 Toyota AFL Mark of the Week.
Both former Sharks are now in the running for;
-

-
$5000 for their grassroots club, presented by Toyota
-
