Some moments of the year … 

Best win. Kozzzzys match winning goal v Blues 

Game of the year - Smashed the Lions by 10 goals at the Gabba in round 23 to finish 2nd 

Goals of the year … Langdon inverse banana v Bombers from the boundary line … Fritsch goal v Lions in finals … 

Mark of the year … Spargo reverse speccy v Freo at MCG … Luke Jackson v Lions in round 14… 

Highs-
Winning 10 on the trot to start the year even though we appeared to be running purely on Adrenaline.

Getting to see the boys live in Alice and seeing Kozzie light the place up with 6 goals against Port.

Our huge wins against Dockers and Lions on their home turf when we were playing for a top 4 spot.

As mentioned by Spirit the win against Carlton and that goal by Kozzie.

Lows-

The three losses in a row and wondering why the wheels had finally fallen off.

The second Collingwood loss was such a hard fought and bitter loss.

The two finals defeats and trudging back to the car in the muddy MCG car park knowing that our boys had fought valiantly but in the end had run out of legs and that we had lost that superhuman competitive edge.

Luke Jackson pulling the pin on our magnificent Football Club and that really hurt more than when Hogan deserted us.

You hit every nail directly on the head. All I was thinking, you wrote. Signing a few of our big guns was a highlight for me as well.  Bring in 2023.

Coming to Melbourne to watch the opening game v the Dogs, watching the flag be presented and raised and taking the win.

Yeah, yeah, Naarm. (I’m learning to talk like an Aussie after being out of the country for 25 of the last 30 years.)

The AFLW season and premiership was the highlight for me in 2022.

The way they played and the spirit they played with I found really engaging.

Absolutely spot on.

To beat Freo and Brisbane away in such comprehensive fashion gives us hope that we can rebound back to our 2021 form in which we were almost unbeatable against the best sides.
