In his 13th AFL season Parker has enjoyed a consistent year of football with a season average 23.8 disposals and five tackles to his name. But it was a one-handed grab in Round 24 that has wowed fans, and earned the midfielder a Mark of the Year nomination.
Halfway through the third quarter Chad Warner booted a long bomb into the Swans' forward 50. Running into the wing and under pressured from a Melbourne defender, Parker took a one-handed contested mark with an outstretched hand.
Parker joins Joel Amartey, Nick Blakey and Tom Papley who were also nominated for Mark of the Year earlier in the season
