Toast What is the best 5 minute burst of individual footy brilliance you have seen?

[Young Redleg]

Melbourne are a long way off Geelong in 2023 I reckon. I think we could be shot to be honest.

Mate don't be so negative. Oliver, Petracca and Lever should be reaching their prime by now and you'd assume we'll see a couple more A-grade seasons from Gawn and May. If Brown and Tmac are fit, our forwardline should function much better than it did last year. And I don't think that Grundy is a downgrade on Jackson at all.

 

[RightWingRoo]

Just a bit over 5 minutes of Boomer at his best. Turned this game on its head and secured a spot in September for us.

Boomer seemed to produce at least one brilliant burst every game against my mob.

One of those fellas who were a pleasure to watch

What has no one posted this video? Only 3 minutes of game time to destroy the cats so maybe he ineligible

 

[beema limapep]

Nathan Brown kicked 5 last quarter goals v Collingwood in 2005 to hand Richmond the win. Was over about 10-15 minutes but could not be beaten.

 

[PAFC_FOREVER]

Davis for mine stood out.

Though, I love Gray.

Gray 5 in a Showdown Qtr


Gray 4 vs Freo in a Final to change the game

 

[Altum Volantes]

5 minutes?

Tony Evans in the 92 GF was good.

 

[Ginnieboy]

Didak kicked 3 in a minute or something crazy like that.

 

[00Stinger]

Jeff Farmer came off the bench to kick 9 goals in a quarter and a half in the Queens Bday game in 2000

 

[Vindicater]

Didak kicked 3 in a minute or something crazy like that.

I remember that. Was insane

Probably Dew in 2008.

Made the most of the qualities he had which were skill, composure and great decision making.

 

[Todman]

Phil "Snake" Baker kicked 3 goals in five minutes in the 2nd quarter of the 1978 Grand Final.
Goals at the 22, 23, and 27 minute marks.

owns this thread in reverse. So many 5 many periods of massive incompetence leading to losses.

 

[Sinjin Smith]

Koutafides last quarter in the 99 prelim against the virtually unbackable favourites Essendon. Played the best qtr of footy I've seen from one player, he didn't play in one position on the ground, he played in all of them, he was everywhere.

How's the commentator fat-shaming Dew after he kicks his second.

in the second quarter of the 96 Grand Final! Single handedly turned the match, what a star. “Here come North Melbourne!” Glorious

Malcolm Blight vs Carlton at Princes Park 1976. Three goals in three minutes including an 80m torp after the siren to win North the game. An unbeatable moment in footy history that gets shown constantly nearly 50 years later.

 

[Bald]

I know it says individual brilliance in the title of this thread but I try to avoid thinking about 5 minute bursts of any sort these days. JB screaming "bang bang bang!" runs in my head on repeat.

 

[My Tilly]

Lockett would have plenty of quarters where he booted 4 or more goals in quick succession. Only issue St Kilda were a pretty bad team and struggled to win despite his heroics up forward.

[CharacterFirst]

Bruce Lindner against the swans at SCG in 1987. Did nothing for three quarters and then just exploded from about the ten minute mark of the final quarter. Kicking goals, taking marks on the last line of defense, was everywhere and did everything to turn around a near five goal deficit.

I was going to say LIndner as well.

He was just in everything, everywhere.

 

[PhatBoy]

Not probably eligible because his biggest burst was two in 5 minutes but Jeremy Cameron

kicked 3 in about 11 minutes and 4.7 and a couple of other pieces of brilliance in 17 minutes in that round 3 comeback against Collingwood last year. That’s a recent one that sticks out for being a lot of impact in a short time but yeah probably not compressed enough

 

[FourthTimeAround]

I'll see you and raise you Reggie Miller vs NY Knicks.

1995, Game 1, Conference Finals, Madison Square Garden
Pacers 6 pts down, 17 secs to play,

Reggie hits a quick 3, intercepts the deflected inbound pass, steps outside the line, hits another 3 to tie the game, then grabs a rebound after 2 missed Knicks free throws, is fouled, then hits 2 free throws of his own.
8 points. 9 seconds of game time.

Watched it a million times. Still in awe.
