2015: Your Favourite Moments

[comrade]

2015 was easily one of the most enjoyable years I've had as a supporter, filled with plenty of thrills.

My 3 favourite moments of the year:

- Clay Smith's goal against Adelaide and the reaction of his teammates.
- Caleb Daniel's debut against Carlton and the crowd going nuts whenever he got the ball.
- The Bonti to Stringer to Wallis to Picko goal against the Roos.

What were your favourite moments?

Stringer's 50 metre goal with 9 minutes left in the EF to put us more than a goal up and break the dead lock. Pure elation.

Could go on for a while but the main ones I could think of -

- Anytime Bobs passion or captaincy came up.
- Round 19 against Port Adelaide ( I managed to get to a game and see us in the flesh)
- Defeating Swans on their own turf round 5, Dahl or Woods nail in the coffin goal especially.
- Lifting the hoodoo Essendon and North have had over us in recent years.
- Three games in row smashing Dee's, Port and Bombers
- Nearly every passage of play that involved Bonts, Dahl and Stringer.
- Round 12 Tom Boyds game against Brisbane.

Crameri sticking it up his old mob was pretty satisfying.

1. Caleb Daniel debut - realising that we have got a star for pick 46.
2. Toby McLean's 3 & 4th games - again, realising that we had scored a top 10 quality player with pick 26.
3. Lucas Webb's first game - same deal, seeing that our pick 27 was a better than solid talent.
4. Tom Boyd's pack mark in the square against Hawthorn - proving that he has an excellent pair of hands.
5. Bailey Dale's games - again, likely high value for pick 45.
6. Hamling's debut
7. Zaine Cordy's 2 games - as before, looks like a F/S steal at pick 60. When he fills out he could well be a KPD who suits Bevo's style of game.

Stringer's 5th goals against Adelaide and West Coast - watching him look at Hartigan and Hurn and saying to himself "I'm too good for you to stop me" was as good as footy gets.

Great thread.

Being at Barkers cafe for the game against Sydney. Crammed in with at least 500 bulldog supporters and nearly lifting the roof off in celebration when Woods/Dahls goal was paid was great fun. I hugged strangers that night.

Yep, the one against the Crows was amazing live. The roar when it went through was awesome.

Heck, you could list 10+ favourite Stringer moments this year.

The last quarter against the Gold Coast was pretty special. Some great goals in amongst that lot too

[Scraggers]

Travelling from Perth to Sydney to see a fantastic team efforts to beat last year's grand finalist on their turf. One of the greatest wins I've seen live !!

[bulldogtragic]

The GCS comeback win.
Bonts, Stringer, Picko goal.
Boydy's hanger.
Anything with Stringer.
Tom Boyd among others getting a rising star nomination.
Last quarters against GCS, Sydney and North. Big bags of goals from Stringer, Dicko and Crameri. Redders 4 in a quarter was good too.
Easton Wood marking everything.
Seeing all the kids, except Runty Hamilton debut this year.
Smashing teams 3 weeks by 60+ in a row for the first time ever.
Bob & Bevo hugging, I think it was the Sydney win.
Clays goal and his team mates. Also pups first goals and team mate celebrations.
Getting into finals and being in front with 5 minutes to go.
Tom Boyd. I don't care about outside noise, he's a star in the making.
Our general men of mayhem game style.
Being excited to go to the footy to watch literally anything miraculous happen.
The rise of Dicko, Grant, Wood, JJ, Dahl, Bob, Boyd and other lifting to another level.

Would the Mods get shitty if I liked every post in this thread.

1. Our first Victory against West Coast. Had many a bad experience over the years at Etihad, enduring a Kennedy and Priddis mauling. To beat them was sweet sweet candy pie.

2. To hear people say "Bulldogs are the most exciting team to watch in the AFL".

3. Matty Boyd, hanger over Harry O'Brien. Well, hanger of sorts, but there was air time.

Stringer kicking 6, before being subbed out, as we belted the Crows.
Crameri kicking a big bag against the Bombers.
Crushing the then flying GWS side, being the first game against our former captain.

* The win against the Swans was the highlight of the year, although there were plenty.

* Highlight player was whenever Stringer went near the ball. He must have kicked 10 goals of the year.
