The Moment. 2019, Round 16 vs Geelong

When Bont got the free at centre half forward for being held by Figjam. Figjam turned to the umpire and said "but he held me first". He said it more than once too. Something a kid would say in the playground. A HUGE sooky sooky la la.

Nailing set shots goals on/after the halftime siren in close games are worth so much more than the six points. I reference you to Toby Maclean in the 2016 Granny. The game was starting to turn in Sydney's favor but we sucked it up and then hit back with that goal as we headed to the sheds with a huge fillip. The game against Essendon in 2000 Brad Johnson kicked a goal just before halftime and they started a punch on just as the siren went but we came out breathing fire in the third quarter and won the game and the fight so *!*!*!*! you Essendon.

Seklwood has chirped his whole career. If I was a junior sitting my draft interviews and a club want5ed to know what my ambition in football was, Id tell them "I wanna knock Joel *!*!*!*!ing Selwood's head off his *!*!*!*!ing shoulders"

I have never once seen an umpire say "You know what, you're right and I am wrong. I am reversing the free kick. In fact due to me mucking you around why not have a 50 metre penalty as well"

He was playing volleyball and everyone else was playing footy. Wrong game, sport!

Yeah that was great. Easton did some very good things.

The moment for me was when Bazlenka snapped that goal. Well that was until Trengove gifted Hawkins a goal to put us just 10 points up. Memories of last year came rushing back but I thought they'll go one better and win this time. It wasn't until Lloyd marked inside 50 that I knew we were actually home.

Great run from JJ to get the ball to Lloyd

The flair of Maclean was a revelation to me in demonstrating his undoubted ability after what had been an ordinary year by his standards
