Just to bump my earlier post.. http://demonland.com/forums/index.php?/topic/37656-tales-from-better-times/ Last half vs Footscray - https://youtu.be/zP3NCTvshwU 2nd and 3rd qtrs against North - https://youtu.be/mQohWq4nstk 2nd and 3rd qtrs against Sydney - https://youtu.be/TJd1vee5tAo here's hoping that it can all come again.. Jones getting better and better in the number 2 guernsey is getting eerie - let's hope he does haven't to wait as long to play in a(nother) final.. ...and there goes my productivity on a Friday afternoon

I was a little disappointed when Robert Flower died that there wasn't more footage of him either online or on TV when I seemed to remember his last season so vividly.. Anyway, turns out with technology you can do anything these days.. so I dug up these videos at dads place and they're now available on YouTube.. I loved them all as a kid, shouting out the commentary and as I destroyed various items of furniture kicking footballs up and down the hallway.. So here's 3 of his last 4 games in pretty extended packages.. Round 22 vs Footscray - Most of the second half. Just skip straight to 24:05 for the best passage of the day and for those of us who were at the Western Oval that day pretty hard to forget. Elimination Final vs North - Semi-Final vs Sydney - Flower had 4 goals to half time and some of the passages started by Wight at full back are incredible. "From Wight, to Hughes, to Healy and there was no stopping them." For some reason we didn't keep a video of the following week.. They're a great trip down memory lane and capture three now sadly passed away former MFC players in Robert Flower, Jim Stynes and Sean Wight at their best. ..alright, Jimmy got better still Given their recent cuts, I'm not sure that ABCs lawyers are going to come after me for putting them up, though Tim Lane might for that suit.. If you're interested I've also got more from the 88 finals series that I can put up.. curiously, the last game of that series seems to be missing from the collection too however..
