Team Captain
For no apparent reason I was thinking about the times I went to Moorabbin as a kid. Growing up in Wonga Park I didn't get to go that often but I went to most of our games at VFL Park.
We all remember the classic games at Moorabbin but what are some of your favourites that no one really talks about?
For me it was Round 21 in 1987 against Collingwood. Was a lovely day and the outer was pretty packed.
My mate and I (14 years of age at the time) took the train down from Croydon North.
The Pies got off to a good start and were up 5 goals at quarter time. Things pretty much remained the same in the 2nd quarter until Plugger went off and kicked 4 goals near the end of the term.
In the 2nd half it was all St. Kilda as they steamrolled the Pies to run out 49 point winners. I believe Plugger ended up with 8 or 9 goals.
This was the game where Diacos pulled a Leigh Matthews and knocked over the point post in the 2nd quarter. It was held up by a couple of blokes for the rest of the quarter!
