With Fawaaz Basadien having scored a stunner from his own half against Cape Town City, fans have been debating the possibility of it winning the Goal of the Season award.
The defender found the back of the net in the 54th minute when he picked up the ball in his own half, after a Cape Town City corner, and ran for a few metres before unleashing a shot that went past Darren Keet, despite the keeper managing to get a hand on it.

Fans, meanwhile, have been debating whether ,or not the left-back's goal would win the prestigious Goal of the Season award by the time all the fixtures have been completed and this season's champion has been crowned.
Here's what they said:
"Come on why are these kind of goals rated really? Anyone can do it. Andile Jali is clear," writes @trinmoo.
"What is it with Betway premiership keepers this season?" asks @DalasileXoliswa.
"He did better than Maart in a derby too,' says @umNatty.
"Last season there was a similar goal, but guess who won the best goal instead," writes @Dr_Kay6.
"So far yea it is but we know through voting any tap in goal from Chiefs can win it," says @Cphesihle24.
"Ya, let's be honest, our keepers are competing with the refs for worst performer each week. But that's still a great goal," says @BalekaneM.
"Definitely, even though is still early but what a goal"," says @NegoCity2010.
"Relax, Chiefs will score a better goal," writes @Sicelo_Lubisi.
"The keeper shouldn't have dived for that," says @StejaMabalane.
"The season is gonna be long, it's still too soon but contender though, great goal from distance," says @SihleTGeneral10.
"Not quite good enough. Ball was landing on the penalty spot, just helped on by the keeper's touch," says @Vuriri14.
