Definately Sam Powers effort to make sure McMahon goal got through.

yeah PP mate have to go with that one aswell but I also like that Robbins mark the one where he took deep in the forward line on his back and the crow player just about putting his boot in Robbins mouth trying to wrestle him.

Brian Harris for the tackle that stopped the crows from scoring which resulted in us scoring the winning goal if Harris had not laid that tackle crows would have scored and won the game.Harris saved the game again

Agree with all of the ones posted so far.
I'll add Daniel Cross' effort in the final term. We were 8 points up, the ball 10 metres out from Adelaide's goal. Hentschel goes to soccer it off the ground, but Cross dives on the ball and wins himself the free. Had Hentschel kicked that goal we would have been in a fair bit of trouble.
I'll also add Boyd and Johnno's marks in pretty much the same spot in the final term.

Robbins tackle on the wing in the third .. cant remember who it was on but it was massive.. got the rest of the players more aggressive I reckon.

It's 66-72 and we have just kicked a goal to be 6 points behind going into time on.
Adelaide break from the centre and the ball spills to their half forward line. Griffin (Or wight) run from the centre square and lays a perfect shepherd (crunch) to leave Morris in a one-on-one with Johncock for the loose ball. Morris backs himself and breaks the Johncock tackle (crunch) he kicks to a contest between MacLeod and Faulkner, Faulkner falls over and MacLeod tries to handball to Edwards but the ball goes over his head. MacMahon had run 75 metres and arrives just in time to take Edwards out of the contest (crunch). Faulkner is back on his feet in an instant and outruns MacLeod to the loose ball (crunch) sits it out in front of Johnno who takes a contested mark on the lead (crunch) then goes back and slots the goal (crunch)
For me it was the crunch of the year.

Good call Local.
Also think Cross diving on the ball was inspirational.
