    The Moment: Rnd 16, 2021 vs North Melbourne

    The moment, the best, most courageous moment that caught your eye in this afternoon's game against North Melbourne. 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.

    I loved Bailey Dale' effort in the 3rd, to just hang off his man enough to encourage the North defender to kick it to him, then Dale swoops, intercepts and kicks it from 50 on a tight angle.
    If we were up and about that goal would've broken most sides.
    However, given North charged again in the last, and at one stage looked as if they could mount a challenge, I'll nominate Wallis' goal from 50. Just gave us a buffer and put paid to any hope's North might've entertained of snatching it.

    Bont Ripping their hearts out in the centre. In slow motion, a beautiful moment.
    Quick hands to Jack, and a laser-like pass to Bruce.

    Sharking the opposition tap while he was at it. It was a perfect piece of play.

    I think Wally's goal from just inside 50 in the last was very important.

    Agree. I said to my mate he wouldn't kick it as it is too far, but that goal stopped North's momentum.

    Agreed, that settled the heart rate a few bpm.

    When they tried to start a fight before the opening bounce. Honestly this never felt in doubt.

    We were always in control, a bit whilst only in 2nd gear, but Bailey Dale's goal from the boundary line felt important.

    I couldn't tell if we were cruising or struggling but when Wallis decided he could kick it 50 it felt like we were home
    If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.
