Kicks After The Siren In Australian Rules Football
In Australian rules football, if a player takes a mark or is awarded a free kick shortly before the siren sounds to end a quarter, the player is allowed to take the kick after the siren. Often, the result of this kick is of little consequence, but if the player is within range of goal, any score will count towards the final result.
Below is a list of occasions where game results have been decided by set shots taken after the final siren. These are highly memorable and often go down in football folklore.
