The Australian Football League celebrates the best goal of the season through the annual Goal of the Year competition. In 2013, this is officially known as the British Paints AFL Goal of the Year. Each round three goals are nominated and fans are able to vote online for their favourite at the league's website. At the end of the home and away season, three finalists were selected for a final public vote,[1] which was won by Lance Franklin for his long-range goal after hurdling over a teammate in the middle of the ground.[2]
