First one that comes to mind.

I’m not sure if it was exactly 5 minutes but Nathan Browns 5 goals vs James Clement MCG in Round 8, 2005

That late last quarter demolition got us over the line.

The two goals in succession against Essendon in the 1995 final was the best minute I’ve ever seen live by any footballer

Jimmy Jess Vs Whoreforn in 1977.  Close game at 3/4 time, Jim comes off the bench for the last qtr, Royce Hart goes to full back to give Jim room to move.  The arm wrestle continues for another 15 mins then Jim pulls down an absolute hanger & kicks his first, then goes white hot to pull down a one-hander & another speccy soon after, kicking truly each time.  We won by 4 points when Royce threw himself over a boot to shut the door on them in the final minute.   
Champions at both ends & a changing of the guard from old to new ... memorable stuff ...     :bow

Not sure about 5mins either but dusty has absolutely ripped many a final to shreds in short spans of time and just completely turned them in our favour.

The way he spanked the Cats in 2017 QF and then his efforts in the 2020 GF before HT and then with his crazy goal to put us in front in Q3 were stuff of legend.

Stephen Jurica kicking multiple goals in 5mins v SOS. Bruce called him a star. Not on of Bruce’s best calls
Stuey Edwards multiple goals in a preseason night game at Waverley, didn’t do anything after
Justin Plapp last qtr against Colonwood in a Friday night game at the G; and
KB in the last qtr of the 1980 GF

The two goals in succession against Essendon in the 1995 final was the best minute I’ve ever seen live by any footballer

Yep. Also as a team 6 goals in the opening 5 minutes against North in round 4 that year.

(90s footy was the best.)

Dusty's numerous 5 minutes in finals stands out and Nathan Brown's last quarter as above was magical.

As an alternate Nathan Foley's opening 5minutes against Collinwood in around 2007. First bounce Foley explodes from the centre, breaks away and hits Polak on the lead for the opening goal. Then very next bounce Foley explodes from the centre and hits the leading Polak for another goal

Was probably 3 minutes but had me up and about that game. We only won 3games that year and Collinwood made a pre Lim

We welcomed Trent after Carlton got a prioritypick and chose Kreuzer. That after trading pick 3 and Kennedy to West Coast forJudd

I know Judd was a gun but you have to smile when you realise that Carlton got their timing wrong and could have had Kennedy, Cotchin, Dangerfield and maybe someone like Scott Thompson instead of Kreuzer and Judd.

Just goes to show it's not worth selling the farm for one bloke when you have a handy draft hand, better to go the kids. Having their sort of draft capital would be amazing (1, 3 & 20).

That was an amazing game from him, last quarter was herculean.
