    Name a game closed a few years back, unfortunately that would have been your best bet for VHS/DVD.

    Any games in particular? Hopefully someone can help you out.

    Acquire all tapes of the Friday night game against Freo where Modra kicked 10 and burn them.

    The early season win over Essendon that  year was a fantastic performance against the league leaders that year.

    We kicked about 20 goals that day and the Wiz was amongst the goals.

    Hopefully you can get your hands on that particular game.

    Beating the Hawks in round 4 by a point under the Friday night lights was the other highlight of the year.

    In all seriousness, that was one of the finest performers by a forward ever. 14 disposals, 10 goals 2. I remember it well. Wasn't a great night for Melbourne supporters but it stuck with me as a night I witnessed perhaps the last great game by one of the game's all time greatest forwards. The only thing I remember from the 1999 season. Alongside Jeff White missing most of the first half of the season, and Alistair Nicholson was our fill in ruckman.

    Sorry to go off on a tangent but...

    I saw something recently about the 1993 season and how Dunstall didn't make the AA team after kicking 123 goals

    That year Modra kicked 129.61 and Ablett 124.60 (from 17 games!) and only two key forwards were selected as AA

    McKay won the Coleman last year with 58.33. Crazy how the game has changed - sure they were legends of the game, but the forwards in the game now can't be that bad!

    This is the first one I think of when it comes to that year. I had it recorded on VHS somewhere.

    Remember that bouncing ball 'goalkeeper save' by Tingay?

    There were only 20 games in the H&A in 1993 as well 😲

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

    • GAMEDAY: Hawthorn

      It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
