The game with the infamous pre-bounce wrestling match between Jakovich and Gayfer. Watch how the trimmed down Jako recovers to take the first mark and kick the first goal. The back problem rares its ugly head in this pre-season contest. Also contains memorable contributions from Stynes, Tingay, Rohde and others. Watch for a youthful Schwartz and Neitz, while Pike makes his debut.

Sorry, that should be 1993... Mods?

Wow. Love it... a rassle and then gets up, leads, strong grab, GOAL!

Part2 of the Ist Quarter is now up. Watch for the rumble at 11mins 50secs in, when Schwartz goes in to help his mate Neitz.

And gets owned.

You gotta remember, 45HG16, he was just a kid and Monkie and Ronnie were hardened campaigners. It doesn't bother me that the heavier brute ended up on top. What I admire was the willingness to fly the flag.

Can't get the Monkey off he's back.

Sometimes you just learn things the hard way.

Yeah fair enough.

Does anyone have footage of him taking out Hird in the granny? Him and Ward were the only ones to fly the flag that day... from memory...of the cancelled game...

Remember sitting and watching this at the game and thinking our football club will never win anything while we have blokes who are more frightened of their shadows on the list and not prepared to defend their team-mates...what was McDonald thinking just after Simmonds got nailed...looks like he is asking Long if he wants a cup of tea...too many blokes who lacked the inner pit-bull....shame really.

Sadly we only had Schwarz. It was a moment when 6 or 7 MFC players needed to rush in and throw whatever weight they had around. Long shouldh've felt the full force of not only a player but of the ground. We let them bully us that day and it was a real pity.

My big concern about the current crop is Are they hard enough? Not since the Northey days have we matched teams for strength and desire for sustained periods.

Fair to say I had steam pouring out of all the pores in my body. Fuming at Michael Long, and fuming by the inaction of certain members of the team after this incident. McDonald was certainly one of them, first on the scene - it was more like he was asking Long if he wanted one scone or two. Real powder-puff stuff.

When it's a final, a GF, FFS show some anger and stick up for your teammate. Ox was fighting a lone hand.

Jeez, only watched part 1 so far but how good was Tingay? Forgot what an absolute gun he was. Shame his career was ruined through injury.

Spot on, adsy! Stay tuned for the 2nd qtr, which I hope to have up tonight, where Tingay goes to half time with 20+ possessions!

waiting for part 3. Is it up? Great to watch. Pike was good too. Phil Gilbert, always a spud.

Here's part 3.

Tingay is absolutely on fire in this qtr. A highlight is the coast to coast goal 9 minutes in. More to come later tonight.

and now, part 4

Hopgood shows some dash... Stinga continues on his merry way, Pike gives Bruce cause for adulation and a few lesser lights (Robbins & Doyle) have an impact.
