In the middle of 2006, Brendon was the focus of a cult following, known as MWL or the Milky White Legs. This followed his 90 metre torpedo goal against Fremantle in round 20 where his roosting 'long bombs'(kicks) have made him renowned as having one of the biggest kicks in the AFL. Although the foundations of the MWL were laid a few weeks before the big goal in The Saints Official chatroom, it was this sensational event that sealed his future in St Kilda folklore.


During the Saints Round 7, 2007 win against the Sydney Swans, Goddard fell hard on his left knee which resulted in a ruptured ACL (the main ligament that supports the knee) which was enough to end his season.
