Top 5 Moments of season 2010

Re: Top 5 Moments of season 2010

1. Winning finals in any season is a highlight, and the manner of our win against Sydney was all the more meritorious - it was the first genuinely close final that we've actually ended up on the winning side of the ledger since 1961. Must have been at least 6-7 tight finals that we've ended up losing in that time so the relief to actually get over the line in a real dogfight was very satisfying.

2. I normally don't rate NAB Cup but when it is the only silverware I've seen us win in my lifetime, you enjoy it.

3. Round 19 v Adelaide victory at AAMI - terrific, gutsy effort with half the team flu-riddled. Our best H&A win for the season.

4. Round 9 v North at Etihad. I do love a bit of argy bargy at the football, and we got plenty of niggle in this game. Very enjoyable day at the footy.

5. Round 17 v Freo at Etihad. Very predictable outcome given the Akermanis fall-out but a complete performance all the same - we actually looked premiership material from Rounds 12-19 (admittedly against poorer opposition) with the only blemish coming against Hawthorn by under a kick, but injury and illness really put the brakes on our momentum.

I would sub in Griffen's goal to win vs Melbourne for the North game, and then this would be my top 5 word for word. You're spot Sedat re: the close finals win - 1st I'd ever experienced in my lifetime. Thought the last 5 minutes vs Melbourne saved our season to that point, we were looking decidedly wobbly and was almost as big a pinch as St Kilda was against us earlier on.

5. Easton Woods heroics in the dying minutes v Adelaide one on one with K.Tippett (honorable mention to Brizas goalkeeper style save in the same game)
4. Brian Lake going forward and winning the game against the Dees in the wet
3. Barry Hall v Nth Melbourne when he came off and copped ten north idiots with his hands up in the air
2. Brad Johnsons return and trademark running goal along the right wing v the Eagirls at Subiaco.
1. The comeback against the swans in the semi !

It's funny how quickly we've accepted the arrival of Easton. He hit the ground running and it feels like he's been a part of it forever. Great kid.

5. NAB Cup, it felt really surreal at the time. and yes the Bazza chants were great, we got a lot out of him and hope that continues next year.

3. Brian Lake - Forward Version 1.0
2. Ryan GriffEn - Can only keep going up from here, amazing individual plays throughout the whole year.
1. Brad Johnson - What a career, we have been treated to a once in a lifetime player.

Didn't you have Cadel Evans for yours Mantis?

I did.

I used it while the TDF was on. If you had a problem all you had to do was ask for me to change it... I would have told you to **** off, but that's beside the point isn't it.

Nope. No problem with it. I don't see it as my place to tell people what they can and can't have for their avatar.

Perhaps I should have added an emoticon to my post to bornadog showing that I was being a little tongue in cheek.

Carry on.
