Most fist-pump-worthy highlight from last night

Featured Replies

Posted

Regardless of whether you were at the G, on the couch, at the pub or listening on the radio, everyone would have a moment in last nights game that caused the most enthusiastic fist pump.

Time to share and reminisce

Mine was McDonald's tackle on Zaharakis in the 4th quarter. Absolutely sensational.

 

Colin Sylvia's goal. Not only did it send the message that we were coming it also proved just how good Col can be.

That goal wasn't about structure, or development, or coaching. It was simply a goal that was kicked by a player with enormous talent deciding to stand up and be counted. I loved it for what it meant to the team, and the player.

 

Garlands goal in the square

..from a great wait-and-assess-while-harrassed-then-nail-the-option ('waawhtnto') pass from Jones - whose 2nd effort boundry snap earlier on was also brilliant.

Rivers was it for me. The hard body, desperate lunge and clear to a team-mate time an again esp. in the last.

Nicholson's chase, slip, then recovery to smother the kick of his opponent.

Beautiful desperation!

I thought McDonald did some outstanding work last night - a few dodgy disposals, maybe, but that Zaharakis tackle plus another great spoil in 4Q which were both fist pumpers for me.

my scarf flew off and went 10 seats over and a row forward when jonesy kicked his banana. just watched it again - mitch was on his own in the square


what about Beamer's long bomb that was pretty nice, or our first for the night which was Lord Howe from the boundary

also liked Watts and Rivers flying the flag after it was clear the Bombers were getting a little rattled by us

garlo lining up for goal looking he had no clue how he got into this position

Watts saving goals about 20 times with little knock-ons bumps and spoils was my favourite though

I was watching in the Bullring as I supersticiously believed that we were better off with us down below.

My moment came late, very late. When we desperately forced that final ball up and I saw the time left on the clock I knew it was over. I think I went sprinting out and down the stairs towards the race screaming "yes!" An amazing roar when the siren went, singing the song with so many others around. What a feeling. What a win.


Pure fist pump- Jonesy's bunana, Sylvia's goal, Garland 1 and 2.

Hair tearer- Garlo's last miss.

Ball tearer- hearing that sweet sound of the siren!

It never ceases to amaze me how Essendon fans just stream out of the ground once they think they're gone. It's like it's a co-ordinated move, they just pack up and go as one.

I thought it was funny when they left after big Maxy Gawn took that mark in the goal square last year - Gawn missed the shot and the Bombers were still in it.

This year was unbelievable, they all streamed out when Garland took that mark. I've never seen supporters leave when 5 points down with 2 minutes left. And he missed!

Pathetic from those fans after what their team has delivered so far this year. But they've always been terrible losers (which is why it's so much fun beating them!).

The great attacking leads in our forward line from ... hey, that's not Mitch Clark, it's Colin Garland.

Garlo's mark in the goal square and goal, thought we had them at that point. Esp. liked the flat kick at the front row of the Essendon cheer squad.....no malice I'm sure, he is a defender after all, usually kicking it the other way!

Mark Neeld's fist pump on the Boundry said it all...

10 weeks of emotion and angst was released...Our coach is on the board...very important.


Tom Mcdonald's and Watt's critical last man in defence tackles

and, Hurley's face shown in slow-mo after he kicked a honker

Garland's mark and goal in the square. Not only way it great play, but in terms of the game it happened at just the right time when we were all on the edge of our seats desperately hoping it could actually happen.

 

Yes agreed RM...watching Cruize Garland ghosting into that square and then a goal......fist pump heaven!

I think I literally fist-pumped when Garland took that mark at the end.

Aside from that, Sellar's mark as they went forward after Garland's point was another moment where I may have fist pumped. And Magner's kick into the 50.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
