I was travelling to Koh Samui that day. By the time i got to my Hotel, we had just won. 
Cold Beers went down beautifully watching some replays

    I was at Flemington. Won on the ponies and surrounded by Hawks supporters watching the last 15 minutes. What a day!

    What a great 10 minutes of footy, completely owned them. Ripper of a game.

    I believe this game produced this one handed beauty of a pickup from Clarry (while we're reminiscing)

     

    I'll be delighted if we kick 17 goals 7 this Sunday....

    Dom Tyson played a blinder from memory.  That was the beginning of the end of the quest for 4 in a row.

    Watching that 10 min clip you could be mistaken for believing the club would have to be insane to get rid of Watts, Stretch, Tyson, Bugg, Pedo and OMac.

    Billy Stretch was excellent too.

    I remember distinctly tearing up a bit on the train ride home from Nagoya.?
    For newer Demonlanders, defeating either Hawthorn or Geelong was considered an impossible pipe dream back in the day. I felt quite surreal. It had been so long since it had even seemed credulous that we could beat them. Sure, we had gotten within 3 goals or so a few times. But their bigger bodies and greater experience made sure they had the situation well in hand whenever we put up a challenge. ?

    The dark day were over with that win.    We had not beaten them in a decade or more, and they were the reigning premiers.   Good times, good times.

    That was the also the debut game for Sam Weiderman. During the second quarter Oliver won a centre clearance that resulted in a Brayshaw goal on the run that I remember well.

    Who's to say I wasn't doing both? Surges of indecipherable emotion can cause unorthodox reactions.

    Probably the day that stuck in Jordan Lewis’s head later that year when Clarko asked would he consider moving to the Suns

    It was a Foxtel broadcast, not on free-to-air, and we watched it on my son's phone, on hands and knees - the phone was propped up against the skirting board (beats me!). When the Watts-dink-to-Tyson-Tyson-snap happened I nearly put my fist through the floor. And it was a concrete slab...

    Possibly the greatest isolated fraction of non-goal-related pure football brilliance I've ever seen.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
