I watched the last 40 minutes this morning. Another great game even now. Funny seeing Hardwick as a skinny kid. Tough, desperate footy and ruthless tackling. Naish copped a head-high shirtfront and Ian Robinson in the commentary box called it a good old fair hip-and-shoulder. Healy on the other said you can't hit players in the head. Nowdays Grenvold? would have got 4 weeks suspension. I reckon Scotty Turner kept that shirtfront in the memory bank for the SF lol.

On the game itself it looked like the Bombers would kick away early in the last thanks to Hird but we wrestled back the momentum and were finishing the stronger side (we had come back from 4 goals down early on). Bondy's crucial spoil on the wing that set up Maxfield's goal was fantastic. We should have really won in the end as we stuffed up a 3 on 1 contest on the wing with under 2 mins to go. The Bombers got a free which set up O'Connor's goal to draw the game.

Will give tonight's game a miss. All I remember of that Adelaide nightmare is Ch 7 had a clash in their tv schedule and the game or at least the first half wasn't shown. I remember seeing them flash a quarter time score update with us 50 points down  and didn't bother to wait for the live second half coverage. Walls thankfully was sent on his bike after this game.

Just might have to record the match we play against the Roo's as I don't mind the way they played at that stage.

It looked like it was gunna be just another of Fawley's failures.
I actually remember this game and that is something for me to do that.
So now we need to get a game with Wallace's wipeouts.
This is what I will now be calling the games we played under these.
Spos we could also have Rawling's runovers.
This covers the last 3 no hopers as our coaches.

As Dermie said in the commentary that night you get full value as a Tigers supporter - you get to experience every footy emotion there is each and every week  lol

We were very lucky to win that game. North won every centre clearance in the last quarter exposing the weakness in our midfield yet Spud reckoned we were only a couple of half-forwards off challenging  . Richo's gamewinning goal with 3 mins to go was our first and only goal in the last 40 minutes. Daniel Motlop playing his first game then drops an absolute sitter when on his own at CHF with 30 secs to go. Thankfully Hawthorn lost so we jumped over them into the top 4.

Great game (well second half at least) to watch even now. 7 goals down in the second quarter with Kouta taking us to the cleaners and it looked like we'd be on the end of another Princes Park hiding. But we kept persisting and persisting playing tough albeit not so skillful footy and never gave up. The Blues were the walking wounded by the end with hardly anyone on the bench and they ran out of gas.

It was the last 10 minutes of the 3rd quarter that started the comeback - Harrison got a free and goaled, Daffy then crumbed and snapped another, and thanks to a great tackle by Funcke which almost knocked him out Rogers bursts through to kick another. Margin went from around 5 goals down to 8 points in just 2 minutes. Timed our run perfectly with Harro putting us finally in front with just 3 mins to go. The Blues made one last push forward but the siren went with the ball 40m out from their goal and their finals hopes dashed  . Too bad "Unleash the Geisch" was wasted on 4 wins in the last 5 games tha year with no chance of finals ourselves.

Benny Gale handballing over Richo's head to score a point is still a classic blooper . Duncan's kicking is not far behind either in the comedy stakes  lol although he played a terrific defensive game on one-year wonder Brad Pierce. He, Knighter, Benny Gale and Gas were great that day.

I remember that day well. I was on my own in the Legends-in-Their Own Lunchbox stand, with 1,000's of cocky, loudmouthed Carlscum fans in full voice as they steamrolled their way towards a finals berth in the first half. Then they went suddenly quiet as I came to life in the 3rd quarter, and started giving it back to them.
Then I went home and discovered that another Blue blood had met her demise in a Paris tunnel.
