I can remember all of us standing and watching the ball, time really did seem to stand still as it stood on its end and I will never forget the pandemonium after it went through.
    The word "surreal" got a fair run over that four week period didn't it?
    I thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken.

      It did but I think I have a better handle on what it means now. A lot of the individual moments that made that period up can't be described any other way.
      They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

        That is a marvellous video. The different angles presented give it a real immediacy - you really get drawn into the action. Really enjoyable. Thanks for posting.

          For me the most intense passage of play was the lead up to Liam Picken's second goal. I guess it was about 12 seconds of play but it involved about 10 of our players and some performed multiple acts. It was utterly absorbing, breathtaking and epic.
          Caleb Daniel's goal just before 3/4 time against GWS involved 15 Bulldog players. Both would rate highly in the best team goals in the game's history.

            It was actually 44 seconds of play from the time Biggs first charged down the kick to the time Liam goaled - incredible!
