He did it when he kicked that left foot goal. Anyone know why?
Please no comments about it being a mark of respect to Michael Jackson.

I saw that as well but not sure why he did it? At the time of seeing it I wondered whether this is something he has done before, or the first time.

Didnt see it. I've just found a reason to watch the game again...

They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

Yes, noticed it. No idea regarding the significance of it.

Have you heard Butters wants to come to the Dogs?

I said exactly the same thing at the time.

Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

Might it have been blowing on his nails and then polishing them on his chest?

As in "How good am I?"

Pretty good in my opinion.

I noticed it as well when watching back the replay, to me he looked like he kissed the hand and patted the Mission logo.

I was suprised Ch7 didn't make a deal with it, being the commentators or showing a replay of him doing it.

Yeah I saw it too, looked like he deliberately touched the mission logo, not sure why

If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

Hmmm i cant really remember but i know it happened in the first 3 quaters cos BigPond video sucks and just stopped playing once it got into about 13-14 minutes in aon the 20 minutes video...but you can select qtr. by qtr. viewing which are all about 5 minutes and not as laggy cos its a smaller video.

Re: Anyone see Gilbee kiss his hand then place it on his chest?

Someone i know (no names, no pack drill) was playing in a televised game (in Melbourne, beamed live back into Adelaide) and did a curious hand signal after kicking a goal.

When asked afterwards (in private) what it signified, it was a prearranged sign to his mates that he had picked up the night before....
