This 1 sticks with me at 14:10 from the boundary during a rampaging comeback during the 2002 semi final.
Had me redlining bigtime.

Great goal but that was such a bitter loss. Amazing game though, probably one of the best we've been involved in.

Hearing you man.
The 2nd and 3rd qrs was some of the best football I've seen us play.
The 1st and last were garbage.
That game was typical MFC in a nutshell.

Just an ordinary home and away game, but I remember him taking a massive pack mark in the goal square against North in 2002 to boot the winner on the siren.

Loved him ever since.

 

or his hanger at Kardinia Park, where Brad Miller literally almost killed Tom Lonergan, who then had a kidney removed, and we snatched a draw from the jaws of victory

I think this game was the most exciting, and ultimately the most depressing, game I have ever watched.

I watched it with my now deceased Uncle, and we were both in tears after it.

Sad aside - when I said goodbye to him in hospital many years later, his last ever words to me were ... ‘Go the Dees’.

Some classic commentary. The “sit down Daics”, “ I can’t, I’ve got cramp” still makes me laugh.

Yeah I was gutted too.
Was sure we were headed for the prelim at 3/4 time as we looked unstoppable.
I remember an interview with Trapper Johnson after the match.
Never have you seen a bloke more pleased after losing a final.
He'd played a blinder for 2qrs and stated he had nothing left in the last ...... Typical.

I wonder where this little rumour originated...

Supremely talented as a player but also very cerebral. 

His positioning in contests and knowing when to jump and when to get front and centre was sublime. He was also able to play a range of positions, half back, midfield and close to goal. 

Would be a good fit and a great mentor to guys like Fritch and Trac

Fritsch seems a close fit to Yze in lots of ways.

Fritsch actually reminds me of Brad Green. Both lovely left footers.

Great stuff. 

Troy Broadbridge with the final mark of the game. So sad what happened to him.

Best quarter of football I have ever seen played by an MFC player.

Travis J had incredible skill but... well we all know the but

Just heard Gaz Lyon on SEN saying there might be another assistant leaving the Hawthorn nest,  he was waiting for confirmation before going with it, but 100% he was talking about Yze... i suspect this is very much in play and hopefully happens sooner rather than late.

Heard same thing. Looking stronger now, and I like this rumour.

If it happens cue DLs version of The Life Of Brian's what did the Romans ever do for us sketch: 

'Ok, apart from getting Alan Richardson, Burgess and Yze what did Mahoney ever do for us???'

On Mahoney getting Richardson, i chuckle at the thought of the correlation between the posters bemoaning his appointment on the grounds he was sacked and has an average win loss ratio as senior coach and those who think the Hawks are the gold standard in everything football. You know, the club that just appointed as their Coaching director a sacked senior coach with one of the worst win loss ration in the history of football.

You are not wrong there, just because a person has failed as a senior coach does not lessen the fact that they make excellent assistant and development coaches and at times heads of football departments. There are numerous examples of this.

Correct, and up to 6 clubs explored getting  Richardson on their team, so its a great appointment.

There is a subset of posters who will see this as an elaborate AFL conspiracy to make us think that he was highly sort after and therefore make us pay overs for him.

Lets just wait on this...

Lyon has probably seen the rumour here...hi Gary, and is going through his channels to see if there is any truth to it.

I hope there is.

At least Gary has the right connections to find out if it's on the money.

We should know in the next few days.

2 r's in Garry. 

Yeah im pretty sure he hasn't got it from here but maybe.. im pretty convinced Yze is a realistic chance to cross to the Dees and like you say, all will be revealed anyway in the coming days.
