    The Moment: Preliminary Final, 2021 vs Port Adelaide

    The moment, the best, most courageous moment that caught your eye in tonight's Preliminary Final against Port Adelaide. 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.

    Bonts fingertip. Any notion they had of winning went.

        First centre clearance from Libba. Honestly, we were on from the first ruck contest.

              B.Smith in clubroom interview, saying brings the team closer and motivates them all. Really great to see the non-players tonight really happy and supportive.

              We are the under dogs and going to make Melbourne crap their pants.

                That is it... wind removed from their sails. No return from there.

                  JJ running back with the flight, taking the mark and sitting Jonas on his backside.

                  Seeing the intent and desire on show from a bloke whose intent and desire has been quite rightly questioned in recent years was a sign.

                  Port didn't stand a chance tonight and plays like that were the reason why

                    We absorbed their pressure at the start of the third quarter unbelievably well.

                    From the AFL timeline 14 minutes in to the quarter: "The Power have nine of the first 11 inside 50s of the third quarter and have enjoyed 76 per cent time in forward half." They had 2.1 to show for it, and we still lead by 44 points.

                    When Shack kicked his goal at the 26 minute mark of the third, I breathed easy. It might not have been the dominant third quarter that the Demons had, but to withstand that pressure and come out even (2.4 to 2.4) for the quarter was every bit as impressive.

                      Agree with JJ. Just showed toughness tonight. He didn't shirk anything and put his body on the line a number of times like I have rarely seen him do before. If JJ is going in like a wild man ... that sets the tone.

                          The scotch is starting to wear off and I am coming down to earth.

                          The moment was definitely the hand of Bont. Justice! Had one taken off him last week under controversial blurry video evidence. This was hd 8k clear as day rightfully judged fingertip touch off the boot VAR ARC what ever you want to call it, overturned wind out of their sails goal. beautiful

                              The first 5 minutes felt like one extended moment.
