Charlie Cameron’s nice ride in the third quarter of Adelaide’s win over West Coast on Saturday night has been nominated for Mark of the Year.

Cameron used his opponent to get elevation and judged the flight of the ball perfectly, taking the mark cleanly with two hands as he fell backwards. 

The in-form 21-year-old then went back and slotted an important goal for his team from 40 metres out on an angle.

Cameron is up against Richmond tall Ben Griffiths and Nathan Krakouer of Port Adelaide for the Round 12 Mark of the Year nomination. You can vote for Charlie here.

He’s the first Crow to be nominated for Mark of the Year in 2016.

AFL fans will be given the chance to vote for their favourite mark and goal each week in order to go into the running for the weekly cash prize of $200 and the major cash prize of $5,000 at the end of the season.

Weekly nominees will be selected by the AFL Media editorial team and the weekly winners will be determined by public voting.

Voting opens 12pm each round the day after the last game and will close the night before commencement of the next round (exact days of the week may change depending on fixture).

At the conclusion of the home and away season, the AFL’s All-Australian Selection Committee will select the best three goals from a selection of 28 (the 23 weekly winners, along with five other contenders as determined by the AFL Media footy expert selectors). The best three will be based on a 5/4/3/2/1 vote given by each member of the selection committee.

The top three selections for the Woolworths Mark of the Year and the Coates Hire Goal of the Year will be placed on www.afl.com.au on September 5. The overall winners will be selected by public voting which will close on September 15.

The Woolworths Mark of the Year and the Coates Hire Goal of the Year will be announced prior to the 2016 Toyota AFL Grand Final.
