95 was special,  but last night - we were up against history and won .

2001 - was a pretty ordinary game .

Last night was enjoyable on so many levels .

I went '95.

The Bombers of that year were a much better team than the Cats IMO.

The team of '95 had some great players but the team of 2017 has the absolute best player in the league - DUSTY!!!!!!

Just while we're on finals, as  poo as the Carlton loss was that was at least the year we broke the finals drought. This year it was the finals win (and over Geelong to boot), when do we go past Fitzroy just so it's one less piece of dribble we can cop from oppo supporters and media trolls?

'95. An Essendone bloke I worked left me a note at my desk at half time saying, "Oh we're from Loserland, a fighting fury we're from Loserland...."

95 and 01 - we had a good team but were still off the competitions best sides .

This year feels different .

To quote Walter White from Breaking Bad .....we aren't in any danger Skylar - WE ARE THE DANGER !!!!

never thought we were close to the good sides in 95 or 01 either, this year I feel like we deserve to be up there.

I might be mistaken but I don't think this bloke is the full quid. Does anyone know for sure if he's got all of his faculties?

As for the best final - beating the Scum Cheats. Losing to them I can't stomach.

The bombers win was excellent. Last night too because we've been their bunnys for so long.

It's a difficult question.

I did have great memories of the '95 match, and a tough battle at that. But last night was just amazing especially the significance of the the amount of time between drinks of a finals win and beating peelong (stuff I hate peelong and I'm so ecstatic to beat them). Not only did peelong have the last 13 wins against us with the win in 2006, they had 7 in row before that. So up until last night the Tigers had only 1 win since winning against them in 2000.
The biggest difference from the '95 match to 2017 was the one moment that turned that game around. Scotty Turner smashed Gary O'Donnell. One person turned that game on it's ear and helped give us the win.
The game last night was won by every single player, and as we all know the pressure laid out by the Tigers was something extraordinary. The best part of the match was seeing the pure raw talent and brute force of Dusty which made the night better than I have ever seen.
For me, the 2017 was the best.

The reason for me is that the past has flowed under the bridge and I want to look forward.  Team effort is right ¾ T!geɹ.  They gel, even when it changes up a bit, they still work well together.  The coaching at all levels must be working a treat.

95 and 01 i enjoyed more cause it was essendon and cheats, but last night was a complete performance on field.

I was more relieved at the final siren that the monkey was off the back, and we can now progress forward.
