    The moment rnd 17 2019 vs Melbourne

    The moment, the best, most courageous moment that caught your eye. Was it the moment that told you 'we've got this'? Or was it the moment that you went 'wow....that is crazy courage.'


    When Bailey Fritsch played on....and missed. That was the moment for me... he nails that, and it's a different game and we're under immense pressure.

    When Hunter kicked that ripper goal, that's when I relaxed and thought we had the win

    That Hunter kick was huge. Why can't he kick more goals, he ha s the skills, with that goal he also had the belief.

    I think its hard to pick 'The Moment' because it was a struggle all game.
    If I had to pick one it maybe the move of Trengove into the ruck which nullified Gawn's influence.

    English multiple marks deep in defence like he was Scott Wynd II to save the day.
    Schache small things. Smoother, score involvements, the running pick up off the ground that Brian Taylor and Selwood spent 30 seconds marvelling. Intercept Mark that finally made me relax.
    Hunter banana.
    Dunkley's run down holding the ball free in the second. Could be the best ever HTB.
    Bailey Smith again in the last quarter, two weeks now, nailing last time crucial goals.

    Pick any. Or

    Throwing the ball over our players head when the ball is meant to returned on the full.
    Encroaching over the mark all day.
    Over turning a dropped mark by the non officiating umpire making it a mark despite it hitting the ground.

    Yet somehow won with that weight around our ankles.

    Bont's big tackle on Gawn. Just to let him know who's boss.

    Hunter's banana for me. Then I knew we were safe.

    Bailey Smith with another clutch goal.

    A few of the crunching tackles defensively were special. Dunkley and Bont's stood out.

    Dunkley's tackle on Brayshaw when he was about to shoot for goal was huge.

    Hunter's goal from the boundary was when we pretty had it. I knew he was a massive chance to kick it because I've seen footage of him nailing that exact shot at training.

    14.24 to go in the last quarter and the ball is bouncing around on Melbourne's half forward line. Up steps the Bont6 and gathers it smoothly and delivers it with precision. I said to my son "How smooth was that?" and he says "yep, if he mucks that up Melbourne kick a goal and I can't see how we win." (we are watching the replay on FOX")

    It was good, but I reckon it fired Gawn up. Big Max really imposed himself on the gme after that tackle.

    Cant pinpoint a moment where I thought the momentum shifted fully onto our terms - it was a true bulldog style arm wrestle.

    My favourite moment of the game was Dunkleys tackle on Brayshaw running into goal. I was at the game and he appeared out of nowhere
