Personally, the Brissie game, where we won and I met up with Mopsy, WP and Bull and mini-me got a signed football from Joel Bowden.

Otherwise, beating Collingwood, Carlton and Essendon and despite what the critics said, the Adelaide game.

Favourites:

Beating the Pies at the MCG, Polo's debut, beating Port in Adel for the first time, my yearly trip to Brisbane :thumbsup and beating those felines from Geelong at Geelong - magical  :thumbsup

Can we please forget:

The game against the Hawks - the most embarrassing loss of the year by the length of Bass Strait and then some.

The game against Freo - which we threw away in 12 minutes

The 100 point thumpings

And Newman breaking his leg

* Development of our young guys - Raines, Polo, Foley, etc..

Non-Fav moments:

I agree with most of them here  :P

 :thumbsup = Beating Brisbane, Carlton, Essendon x2. Beating Collingwood, beating Port on their own dung hill. Development of the youngster's.

 :banghead = The x3 100+point thumpings. Seeing Newy and Cogs go down with bad injuries. :'(
