Here comes the flood! - v Essendon Rd 21 2000

[bornadog]

I was in year 9 at Catholic College Bendigo and we were performing a rendition of Peter Pan that night at the Bendigo theatre (I was magnificent as the Crocodile). Backstage there were whispers of something going down when we won I'm sure the whole crowd heard me belting out Sons of the West


My late grandparents had come up from Melbourne to watch my performance and I heard afterwards that my Grandad had earphones in and was listening to the game the whole production! My mum said he would keep letting out a little 'yes' or curse under his breath

Very nostalgic match for me even though I have never actually seen it!

Not even a DVD of the game?

Never seen it. Anyone know where I can get a copy? Would that name a game thing the Eddie owns do it?

If anyone has a copy of this and would like to "share" with fellow Woof folk, please do.

You can't help but laugh. The play that lead to Grant's match winner, Nathan Eagleton had a set shot from 40 metres out and didn't make the distance, and even if he had it would've been out on the full. He was certainly never a man for the big moment Nathan, he missed his calling as a South African cricketer!

it was a comedy of errors all round. The shot on goal was terrible, then as the ball comes to ground it bobbles of Fletcher's foot out on the full. Then up steps the big man...

It was a pretty foul effort.

[always right]

The game was also notable for the TV commentary. Dunstall and Brereton together and it makes me laugh how high pitched Dunstall's voice was....he's certainly improved over the years.

Stupid Samsung keyboard.

Edited.

It was also noteworthy for the fact that the Chief in particular spent half the last quarter practically barracking for us.
