Your teams greatest moment.

[Jarro]

What's the greatest sporting moment your team has ever had ?

It doesn't have to be a GF win to make it the best .... it's just a moment that really makes you proud that you support your team 8-)

Here's mine (sorry about the quality of the vid)

[Tongueboy]

1977. Quirindi Grasshoppers beat the Scone Thoroughbreds in the Group 21 Grand Final. We are talking proper footy not this shit they play today!!

[Eag's]

My footy team Centrals winning 7 straight Grand finals from 1978-1985 8-)

[Grunt]

1988 South Sydney High beating Marcellin College to reach the Finals of the NSW State Rugby League Knockout. Highlight was a young Half Back scoring an intercept try to score under the posts at Redfern Oval to seal the game.
South Sydney High 18 Def Marcellin College Randwick 10.

pity the week later we got smashed by Canterbury Boys, the half got smashed by Jim Dymock.

[sms316]

The best ever.

Yep whatever :roll: and by the way, I am the biggest Dragons supporter on here 34 years and counting. Mike and uberwanker have got nothing on me ;)

You certainly carry a big smile for someone who has experienced so much disappointment over those 34 years.

[Yossarian]

I still have fond memories of Chris Judd tearing apart the Brisbane Lions... good times.

[henno]

Who?

[Yossarian]

It is a complex game. I wouldn't expect you to understand ;)

Mate it is either smile and get on with it, or dwell on the past and go nuts :)

It's hard to appreciate a premiership as a kid when your team is winning them every second year. But my passion for footy has grown as I've got older, and after a lean period, the premiership last year was very special.

[oldmannoodles]

This wasn't so much a team effort but will always be one of the most memorable spectating experiences of my life. I was at this game and the roar from the crowd was easily the loudest I've ever heard (I think supporters from both teams contributed to it).

Lean period, you call that a lean period, 72 years is a lean period!

1999 was painful.

Butch reckons you were too slow, couldn't jump, couldn't shoot and couldn't go left off the dribble. ;)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wMwppgtjkwU&feature=relatedLeo Barry took the most overrated mark of the century.

[Minor_Threat]

I wasn't around for it but it would have to be Footscrays one and only VFL flag in 1954.

The moment that I have been around to witness would be knocking the Pies out in the 2006 Elimination Final in front of 90,000 odd.

We have obviously made it further than that the last few years, but that was pretty special as we hadn't played finals for quite a while before that!

Ditto..

[zacdullard]

To young to remember but would have to be when North Melbourne got up in 1996 & 1999.

The win over the hawks this weekend wont be to bad either.

That's some vertical leap there Raz:shock:. Don't worry about Courty. If it was him in that pic, he'd be about 2 cm off the ground:D


Is that Aumuller st. stadium?

Didn't check the clip. Saturday night would have been a highlight?
How about Robbie Muir's greatest hits?

[Yossarian]

Leo Barry took the most overrated mark of the century.

I know I am not meant to agree with you but +1

[u8ergolfer]

Funniest moment I've ever seen had to be Stanley the Steel Avenger getting sent off..

[zacdullard]

Leo Barry took the most overrated mark of the century.
It was a great mark!

[Yossarian]

If he could kick he would not have needed to take it.

[AndyP]

It was a great mark!Did I say it wasn't?

[zacdullard]

No.

It was a great mark and it is seen as a great mark so then how is it overrated?

[AndyP]

It is hyped up as the mark that won the Swans the Grand Final, which it did not.

My mate, Yossy, will back me up.

[zacdullard]

I didn't win the grand final.

It saved them from a potential goal by the Eagles.

[Yossarian]

Which won the gf.

[zacdullard]

Ok then it won the grand final.

It still was a great mark.

[AndyP]

It saved them from a potential goal by the Eagles.So not a certain goal then, because that would be an awesome mark, if there was. The Swans look like they had it covered to me.

[zacdullard]

Yeh the siren went a few seconds after he marke so it would of had to be a quick goal.

[Yossarian]

He did basically take the ball of four other swans players. It is not like he flew 5 deep in a pack of eagles that included cox, lynch, hansen ect.

[zacdullard]

Who do you go for anyway Yossarian?

[Yossarian]

Can't you tell?

It might be the eagles...

[zacdullard]

OK. Now I can see why you do not like the mark :mrgreen:

They are having an average year the same as my Roos :cry:

[Yossarian]

I am a little biased, but it is more the fact he came in from the side and took it off a team mate. It wasn't a shit mark, it took some guts, but it wasn't that huge.

[zacdullard]

I just had another look at the video, there were 3 eagles players in the pack but they all crashed into each other and went to ground.

Part of what makes the mark so special was the courage he displayed as it was just eyes for the ball and because it was just eyed for the ball it doesnt really matter if he took it off 5 swans players.

[AndyP]

Let's not talk about the 'boy from Deniliquin' anymore.

[zacdullard]

Sounds good to me.

Lets talk about hawks, there having a rough season.

[AndyP]

Are you intentionally taking things off-topic? Read the thread title. :p

[zacdullard]

My bad

[just]

Are you intentionally taking things off-topic? Read the thread title. :p
Sensitive, are we?

[henno]

How are the Hawks doing? I don't really follow the AFL; someone fill me in.




Troll much?

[Yossarian]

The eagles beat the hawks.

[TheTrueReview]

'78 Grand Final. Manly won the title after:

losing the major-semi against Cronulla,
after drawing with Parramatta, winning the mid-week semi-final replay,
knocking over the minor premiers Western Suburbs,
winning a mid-week grand final replay over Cronulla, after drawing it a couple of days before.


Having to play 6 games to become premiers in an era of final 5 football. Outstanding. Then having 7 players picked for the Kangaroo tour.

[PeteyD]

Cheats.

[TheTrueReview]

Cheats.

That helps too. :mrgreen:

[Courty]

Don't worry about Courty. If it was him in that pic, he'd be about 2 cm off the ground:D

At least I can get off the ground. :p

The term 'flightless bird' comes to mind. You might just be the biggest, yellowest, gayest ever flightless bird in existence. :mrgreen:

[AndyP]

The eagles beat the hawks.The 91 Grand Final was my team's second greatest moment for me.....

1997 Grand Final against Manly.

HAppiest day of my life.
