Essendon's Matthew Lloyd and Melbourne's Michael Newton will be presented with the 2007 Toyota AFL Mark and Goal of the Year awards, tomorrow, Thursday September 27 at the AFL Live Site, Federation Square.

Newton’s mark came in the second quarter of Melbourne’s round 16 match against the Kangaroos at the Telstra Dome. The ball came long to the Melbourne half-forward line where Newton climbed high over team mate David Neitz and Kangaroos defenders Glenn Archer and Leigh Brown to take a spectacular mark.

Lloyd’s goal came in the third quarter of the Round 20 match against Carlton at the MCG. The ball came into Essendon’s goalsquare after a long kick from Angus Monfries with Lloyd locked in a marking contest with Carlton’s Jarrad Waite. The ball spilt to the ground, Lloyd gathered the ball and with his back to the goals, he back-heeled it through for a remarkable goal.

Each week of the home and away season, three nominations for the Toyota AFL Mark and Goal of the Year were posted on the AFL website for fans to vote for the weekly winner. At the end of the season, the AFL All-Australian Selection Committee voted on the overall winner in each award from the list of weekly winners from throughout the season.

Matthew and Michael will each receive;
