Drowning out the Collingwood boos of Grundy was one of my more prouder moments of being a Dees fan.

Loved them all but left out Hibbo's 1 v 1 win vs Lipinski (?) out of the pocket.

Think that's the quickest ive seen Hibbo run since ...

The crowd went nutz. 

My other fav was Smithy's run down tackle of Maynard.  Could've easily tackled from behind and probs ITB but went alongside instead to make sure there was only one outcome.  Clever boy.

Underrated part of that play was Viney smashing Noble just after his hand off to Judd.

In the lead-up to Fritta's goal in the third he also bullied Adams out of the way like he wasn't even there. He had so many Jack Viney moments.

Had Grundy kicked the goal after that it would have been the biggest lift ever. Gave me goosebumps similar to Neitz on McCabe or Whelan on Hird.

There's nothing in my view that fires you up as a fan more than when you goal straight after these moments.

We had a few like that. Thats why the Roo one was so good, young player finished off the good work.

We really got them in the physical stakes on Monday.

The pies might have been due for a loss and even the West coast factor might have played a part but a lot of teams would have notice what we did and how often the Magpie players stayed on the ground after the hit.

Their game is heavily focused on post-contest / outside. Without De Goey, they really have no-one that can dominte on the inside. As a result i think they give up a level of physicality.

Both the Hunter hit and Fritta goal got me out of my seat.

I like to state the bleeding obvious in 10, 000 word or more.

For me it was watching that little receiver Daicos grub his kick in/receive and then for Fristch to hit the post. Had that gone in it would have been a back breaker!

[Bigfoot 296]

Loved everything about the day (except for our kicking for goal) but my favourite was Neale's guard of honour and Goody hugging him.

This’d be mine! Catches the ball, two or three steps and bang straight through him…..

[Dee*ceiving 1,674]

WH-E might think twice about laying another tackle, anywhere ever again after that hit! 

[pitmaster 3,561]

Hunter running through WHE really did have me out of my seat. It was the moment I realised we were starting to put our game together.

Having said that, my favourite moment from the KB game did not come until earlier this week when it dawned on me that in consecutive weeks we had knocked off Carlton and Collingwood. For decades post our flag in 1964 these two lorded it over us and the competition. To send the Blues into an even bigger tailspin and to nail the Pies both within 10 days was sensational.

Jvr coming in to stick up for Smith after so called dangerous  tackle was a good thing too.

Now for the trifecta.

This is the issue with the new dangerous tackle rule they're ramming through.
If you are the tackling player you cannot go in for a tackle being half hearted and gentle because the finely tuned athlete in peak physical condition with the ball is going to blast straight through you.
Luke Hodge was on SEN this morning talking about the perspective of players.
In every game there are blokes playing to stay in the team, playing for contracts, their teammates confidence etc.
Coaches place a very high priority on tackles to pressure the ball carriers into mistakes.
They are also coached to drag the players to the ground as handballs while being thrown to the ground are far harder to hit than when standing up in a tackle.

Someone asked he other day what happens in a Prelim, when they're playing for all the marbles and we find half a dozen players getting rubbed out for the GF cause they were a little bit rough.

My view is if your going to play the game gently.
You're gonna get hurt.

JVR's sealer, with the knowledge that (1) we were finally going to beat Collingwood at the G since 2017 and (2) that this kid loves the big moment on the big stage.

Jack's pirouette was a thing of beauty and should be hung in a museum.

[DemonicFinalFantasy 235]

While I voted for Jack's dance, it was a close call, knowing that Hunter's bulldozing of WH-E would have equally stunned 'dogs fans. Am I a bad person to gloat about it?!!
