Fremantle Dockers Caleb Serong takes Mark of the Year contender with horizontal grab against Gold Coast
Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it's Caleb Serong.
The Fremantle star has taken a brilliant flying mark, challenging Superman as he got completely horizontal in the air during the club's clash with Gold Coast.
The gun midfielder took a slips-like catch inside 50 for the Dockers, but missed the following set shot, on the eve of the first quarter at People First Stadium on Saturday.

As young teammate Matthew Johnson danced onto his right foot and put the ball into space, Serong soared to take a potential Mark of the Year contender.
The grab was even more impressive given the conditions on the Gold Coast, with heavy rainfall making the ball extremely slippery and the terrain just as tricky for the Dockers and Suns.
Despite Serong's kick missing to the left, the Dockers took a strong 20-point lead into the first break.

Bolton shines as Dockers rain on Suns' parade
Fremantle star Shai Bolton kicked three goals to get one over former mentor Damien Hardwick, inspiring his side to a hard-fought 11-point win against fast-finishing Gold Coast. Bolton showcased his elite talent in wet and wild conditions, leading the Dockers to a precious 11.9 (75) to 9.10 (64) victory at People First Stadium on Saturday. Highlighted as Fremantle's 'barometer' by ex-Richmond boss Hardwick in the build-up to the game, Bolton shone in the front half with 20 disposals. But his late tackle on Nick Holman was every bit as important, directly leading to Jye Amiss's match-sealing goal in the final 30 seconds. The Dockers had led by a game-high 20 points in the final quarter, but saw the lead trimmed to five as Gold Coast gave them a huge scare. A third straight victory put the Dockers (7-5) into the top eight, while the Suns (8-3) suffered just their third loss of the season – and their first on home turf. Caleb Serong (27 disposals, six clearances) and stand-in captain Andrew Brayshaw (30, five) were important for Fremantle, and Patrick Voss stood tall in attack with a career-best three goals and eight tackles. Luke Jackson (27 disposals, 20 hit-outs) was influential as a ruckman, and Jordan Clark (30 touches) was composed in defence. Gold Coast captain Noah Anderson was immense with game-high tallies of 39 disposals and 12 clearances.
