Best game of the 1980s

[Jascave]

What was the best game from the 1980s? Was it WA v Vic of 1984 and 1986, the 1984 2nd semi between Essendon & Hawthorn, or the Round 20 1981 game between Carlton & Essendon?

Post your thoughts here.

80s would have been very boring without the mighty hawkers.

The State game where Richard Osborne was called for out of bounds in the dying seconds with the Vics a few points down was a classic.
For mine,{biased of course} the 1984 second semi v bombers was as good as it gets, close all day, 2 sworn enemies and the best 2 teams of the year at it, tough and a kick in it at the siren {Eade kicking a goal after the siren to extend the win to 8 points}

The 1989 Grand Final, though from a personal point of view I preferred the 1985 Grand Final.

1984 2nd semi was breathtaking. it had everything. Big marks and goals and many lead changes in the last. The only time I have ever left a losing game fully satisfied.
