    The Moment: Rnd 18, 2020 vs Fremantle

    The moment, the best, most courageous moment that caught your eye in tonight's game against Fremantle. Was it the moment that told you 'we've got this' or 'we lost this one right here'? Or was it the moment that you went 'wow....that is crazy courage.

    Roarke shimmying through the Dockers defense on 50 and hitting up a free Hunter. That was when I knew we were home.

    The Bailey Smith snap for a goal got me out of the chair.

    Not particularly one moment from one player but the 2nd quarter really set us up for the win.

    The Hunter gut run after Libba’s elite vision set up a goal for English in the second quarter. That’s how you lead by example.

    Hunter for me as well, add in his two smothers in 10 seconds and I thought it’s going to be ugly but we will get it done.

    Hunter is really playing like he's got a point to prove, he wasn't going to let us lose today
    If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

    The Roarke, "I'm the Candy Man", move was a thing of beauty that only a skateboarder could execute.

    Yep, this for me too.

    Libbas kick was the stuff finals are made of.

    Would have been Wallys 3qtr time kick if it’s gone through

    Libba's left foot pass into the middle of the ground in the 2nd quarter.

    Until them Freo has us playing 'inside', made the game congested so it was pretty even.
    After Libba showed the rest of the team that gettignt he ball outside the contest opens the game up, we kick the next 5 and kill the game.
    Even by hand we would take the outside option rather than a closer safe option. It was a game of two phases - before Libba's kick, and after Libba's kick.

    Yep, spot on.

    That kick was a thing of a beauty and it's those decisions that separate the good players from the truly elite.
    Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

    Libba's kick to the middle of the ground was the moment we decided to "win" the game instead of trying to not lose the game.
