Thanks Rhino, will do.

Hi guys, i'm new to the board and just thought i'd ask those who can remember, What was the Demons game you attended? Mine was Round 18, 1981. The main thing i can remeber about the game was that Jacko kicked 4 and Healy and Crosswell 3 a piece. Unfortuantely the Demons lost by about 5 goals, Healy and Paul O'Brien were our best.

Sure mate, wlll happily update and upload the docs on a regular basis if the Admins are interested

On the flip side; 1964 second last H&A round. Melbourne vs Hawthorn. Hassa Mann kicks a freakish goal in the dying moment to win the game for Melbourne. A week later, at the end of the H&A seaosn, Melbourne finished top, and Hawthorn finished 5th (missed the final 4). If Hassa Mann's kick had missed, Melbourne would have finished 5th, missing the finals and Hawthorn would have finished on top.

I still remember Robbie Flower waving his arms around in anger towards Tony Campbell as he sprayed that shot, Flower was in the goal square on his own.

Thanks daisycutter. That would be no problem at all as i update all my documents every match, i have been doing it for years. I have some others if you are interested. Guernsey numbers of every player that has played for the club (about 40 pages)and every single Melbourne players games and goals total (about 30 pages)...a few others as well...let me know if you would like me to post them.

You're right, it's a bit of a blur after the Lyon goal, great times....i still can't believe that Sean Wight is no longer with us.

No problem mate

It certainly was, from memory it was the great Alan Johnson who bombed it long to the top of the square and David Williams got the hanball out to Lyon...great moment...thankfully David Hart missed that last shot at goal

Tony Campbell, 4th quarter, Preliminary final, 1987 Greame Yeats, 4th quarter, Preliminary final, 1987 Earl Spalding, 4th quarter, Elimination Final, 1988...thank god for Garry Lyon..
