The Sydney game in round 14 was not only our best win for the year-in my opinion it was our best victory since 2001.(it was also on my Birthday)

Always love beating the West Coast Peacocks .Watching young Jack kick 5 goals in the opening 10 minutes was magical.

Our most enjoyable loss was the round 22 fiasco....we didn't get the chocolates but what an exciting comeback.

Sydney game for sure.  The team got a lot of self-belief out of that game.

Me too, closely followed by the Freo game at emtyhead stadium!
For me though, the game where we really started to come of age was Port in monsoon!

Agree with that- that comeback was as good as it gets and if TT was allowed that goal, the roof would have lifted off Etihad. Made me feel that we are actually starting along the path Dimma has been preaching, especially after the very solid effort against the Saints the week before.

Another off season or two and I reckon we will start becoming regulars in the 8.

The Port game was a real turn around for us imo.  You could sense the change in the club and the belief in the players.  They were tenacious and relentless and showed us what the new Tigers were going to be like.

Sydney game by a long way

Have to say round 8 against the Hawks was important one as well - should have won it but was really the first time we saw "real" signs of progress

Also liked the Freo game and rounds 21 & 22 although both losses from a long term perspective - super important

Sydney game and I really enjoyed beating Freo. Round 22 Port was a great result, showed the kids they can play but left no doubt about the work and task ahead.

Swans and Crows games were good for getting the monkey off the back as we hadn't beaten either side in ages and a test of our fighting spirit but we were lucky to still be in both games at half-time. Port win was my favourite - that first win had been coming over the previous 3 weeks and we dominated Port for the whole 4 quarters in trying conditions. The passionate rendition after the Port game will be hard to top as well.

Hopefully that changes next year  :-\.

The least fav for mine was the North loss. You'd expect us this year to lose badly to a top side but to a mediocre side like the Kangas :chuck.

1. Can't top Jack kicking 10 against West Coast. Just a great day at the footy.
