Favourite game of 2006

[one-eyed]

What was your guys and gals favourite game from last year?

[Stephanie]

I loved watching us thrash Brisbane at the Dome  And the scuffle over P.Bowden's goal... so he got another one 
Beating Port on their own dung hill

The win over the Crows hands down because nobody gave us a chance in hell, the coaching staff thought outside the box and the players followed instructions to the letter!

Wasn't at the game, but flogging the Pies was sweet.

The Brisbane game at the Dome was good, it's been a long time since we've pummeled a team like we did that night.

The Pies game for me. 9 goal to 1 first half, Rainesy's hip and shoulder on Pendlebury and us giving the Pies crap all day to the annoyance of one bourbon satuated drunk Pies fan who never was given the opportunity of a comeback except to verbally abuse a young female Richmond supporter  and in the end got so peeed off with the way the Pies were getting spanked he walked out during the third quarter  .

Flying all the way over from Perth to watch the Tigers give Collingwood a bath at the G

Would have to say the Brissy game where Mini-me got the signed ball from Joel Bowden - and meeting up with WP, Bull & Mopsy!

Agree, dont forget Tambo's grab over Lucuria

Dreamtime at the 'G - Polo's debut, JON's winning point - special game indeed.

Always enjoy winning games interstate - Gabba was great because I met up with Julz & Mopsy (and bg25 didn't hit me in the head in 2006 ) and beat Brissie again - started a good run for us I reckon

Beating Port in Adelaide was something I'd never though would happen - ditto beating the Cats at Skilled Hell Hole

And those 3 game at the end of the season where we kicked 20+ goals for the 1st time in yonks.

And finally the Pies game - had the best seat in the house that day

Must have been torture though if you couldn't yell and scream as normal - or are you normally subdued?

Usually pretty subdued - don't go off much these days - too old, more mature

Me too.
It wasn't pretty but the team showed the maturity and skill to carry out a cleverly concieved strategy which was extremely encouraging for our future. Loved that we got the media's attention too.

The Pies flogging was a close second.

Wallace should be applauded for destroying the flood tactic that day instead of us being wrongly blamed for what happened. If the Crows didn't flood our forward line expecting us to just turn the footy straight over to them then we wouldn't have played keepings off in our backline.

Speaking of the Crows, Neil Craig will be under massive pressure this year after back to back chokes. I can see them being the top 4 side from last year that falls away this year.

You can always claim a 100% record WP

Spot on MT.
However us being the eternal whipping boys of the AFL were incorrectly criticised for employing the tactic, aside from a couple of savy media types.
So ironic being criticised for for destroying the flood by employing an 'ugly' strategy.
It was indeed brilliant work by Wallace and the team for pulling it off.
