for those desperate to watch the last quarter the below link is a nice easy way to get the bigpond replays rather than waiting for them to download on the crappy bigpond media player

replays are generally available after a few hours, so maybe try after dinner tonight

EDIT: sorry if this breaks any rules mods, it isn't streaming though...just an easy way to find the bigpond links

I can imagine the match committee meeting on Thursday.

Mick:"Hey guys know what would be really funny. If we let Adelaide get a big lead and then have a 20 goal second half. If we get the ball in our 50 we have to miss the easiest shots."

Everyone Else:*Evil Laughs*

How many did Essendon have against GC in the first quarter? Way more right..?

 

[Gibbsy]

Wow. Haven't gotten this excited about us playing since last year's GF, no joke.
Amazing turnaround, just shows we're the best side in the league when we're at our peak.

Also, Krak - Awesome stuff. Daisy's torp also scarily good. Such an underrated kick and should be used more often.

Can't believe I stayed home to study. I'm the dumbest human being alive.

Re: 11 goals in 19 minutes

They kicked 15 goals I think. Which would have been a 32 + minute quarter I think

 

[aussiedude]

we need to play more than 2 good quarters soon, but that last quarter was the best of the season, better than the bulldogs game, what a goal by Daisy and Krack with the hanger at the start of the 4TH. was a disappointing first half again but crazy final 25mins

 

[Subtemperate]

Got up at 4am to watch them play.... was almost going back to bed at half time.... great decision to hang in there lol.

Seeing tarrant kicking goals in the black and white again.... Brings a tear to the eye.

But Thomas and ball were emense for us today.... so many things in this match were a highlight its hard to narrow them down... But I hope maxwell and harry have a good look at their one on one form in the video review.

Wow what a win. That was special.

A few teams will learn a lot by how Adelaide exposed us in defence. We are so vulnerable 1 on 1 it's not funny. Toovey's absence was very evident. In the end, our mids (mainly Ball, Thomas and Pendles) just lifted their intensity and won just about every clearance. Some of Ball's tackles and smothers were amazing. That's one I'll definitely re-watch.

 

[Frankie23]

Amazing, I knew I should've gone!

Krak and Taz proved their worth, Daisy was inspirational as well.

 

[The Magnificent Seven]

Highlights:-

- Krak's leap. Bloody magnificent
- Taz kicking straight, leading, grabbing. And then heart-thumping the jumper
- Daisy Thomas with roadrunner legs. Then a Rocca-like torpie
- Krak's goals
- Luke Ball transforming into a bulldozer

18 goals in 2 quarters. Un-freaking-believable.

EDIT: And I feel kind of weird with 1/2 game feeling awful watching a mauling. 1/4 watching a normal game. 1/4 feeling awesome watching a mauling.

Maybe we hold the 'fastest to 10' record then?

15 goals in 33 minutes roughly.
= <50% g/m

11 goals in 19 minutes roughly.
= >50% g/m

Re: 11 goals in 19 minutes

With 17 mins left we were 23 points down, that's the best spurt of footy I have ever seen, and to turn it on against a team that was dominating, well that's just something else....

Sounded great on the radio. Could someone please make a montage of this game, would be great to watch!

No montage needed. Just watch the last quarter.

Reminded me of the final 2 years ago where John Anthony kicked the winner. Was going to leave at half time too but decided to stay

Highlight: Krakouer playing an amazing game of football against BigFooty user 'overtheline's club. It was almost as if he knew...
