So nice to see matches from the Western Oval and Windy Hill ( I think the game lost a large part of its soul when they stopped playing at the suburban grounds - an equally big part when they did away with the reserves curtain-raiser and a large chunk when we lost the under 19s). Not so nice to see that 80's video LOL.

I just broke a funny bone. I haven't seen that in about 15 years. I still have it on VHS. Absolutely hilarious.

I love how there is a random 2 seconds of women jumping around in leotards.

I'd never seen any of that 1987 match before.

The reaction when Hawthorn hits the lead at Kardinia Park is amazing...

That day was the greatest day i had at the Footy. Even if we win a Flag that Round 22 1987 match will always be remembered.

It signified that we were back after 23 years of nothing.

Good stuff.

The 87 Western Oval game is still the greatest day Ive ever had at the footy. It was just magical. I think part of what made it so great was that it was an away game, which back in the old days always gave us that extra special tribal us-against-them feeling.

We played a brilliant last quarter and in the end, it all very nearly came to nothing. Hawthorn totaly stole that game against Geelong. On the video you can hear the crowd murmur a little as Dunstall took the mark, about 20 seconds before everyone goes nuts when he kicked the goal.

If Geelong had won we'd probably remember the day as an awful experience, getting our hopes crushed.

The Brian Wilson goal in the last quarter is still my favourite goal of alltime. Out on the wing I was right behind it as it sailed through the goals. I rode it home all the way and lost my 13year old mind with everyone else. If there is a heaven, I think eternal joy would feel pretty much like I felt as Wilson kicked that goal.

How many of you like me, watching that video and can recite every piece of commentary word for word?

I found this nice little uplifting Melbourne and Jurrah video.

"Cover Yourself in Glory Son" Ian Robertson, you could also hear the pain in Bernie Quinlans voice next to him.

Do you remember a game from the late 80's possibly early 90's where Melbourne beat West Coast at Subiaco? The players then proceeded to give it to the crowd. I think Garry Lyon and Brian Wilson may have even stuck their fingers up to the crowd as they were walking off the ground. I would love to see footage of this game again, I just can't remember what year it was!

Thats great. Finally we've got some tech savy people posting some stuff on Youtube.

Yeah, I know. How biased is Quinlans special comments? Couldnt half tell he was going for the Dogs.

That was '89. Huge Brawl at the End. Darren Bennett & Brian Wilson really gave it to the crowd. I have the Game on Tape.

At 3/4 time John Northey got stuck into the Eagles & had To be Restrained.

Real us against them Stuff. We need that Grunt Back...

How good was Sean Wight in that Game!!! Would love to see a reunion of the "Northey Years" We didn't win the Grail, But by Christ they had a Mighty Crack over 5 years.

I was only 2 so obviously too young to go to the game and i can't remember it all. But I've watched the video a thousand times and Wilson's goal is my favourite of all time as well even though I wasn't even there and I've seen a fair few in the flesh! 87 was such a special year, Robbie's last season, making the finals for the first time in 23 years, having to win our last 5 or 6 games and then almost making it all the way to the big dance! That season really brought us out of the wilderness. Melbourne supporters my age think we've got it tough, but at least we make the finals pretty regularly.

The fact that the ball flew through a pack and miraculously landed in Dunstall's arms makes it even better.

There will be never be another day like that again - no team will go that long without making the finals, and the games won't be played at the same time.

Too right. 6 games on a saturday with a Transistor shoved against your ear, pie & Footy Record in the other.

Top Days they were & that Western oval day was near the end of all that.

Singing "Grand Old Flag" down dynon Road. Brilliant.

Thanks for that. It's one of my first memories as a supporter after 87 when I would have been only 4-5 years old.

[45HG 1,539]

Still can't believe I spent 20 years living right near that ground, yet was only 5 months old when all this happened!
