Dane Swan against Essendon on ANZAC day when he rubbed his belly was an absolute domination. 42 disposals and 3 goals!
 
Buckley vs Fremantle 2001. 46 possessions and the only time that Buckley cracked 20 contested possessions (although that stat was only recorded from 1999 and onwards).
 
Dids against the Eagles over in Perth in the 2007 finals series was sublime - one of his first genuine stints in the middle and he tore it up in and extremely high pressure, sudden death environment.

Leon played a game in the back pocket against St Kilda in the 2011 H&A season which redefined the role of back pocket for me. I didn't know it was possible to be so dominant playing as a small defender. He was phenomenal.

Personal favourite will probably always be Licca against Port Adelaide in the 2002 finals series - the team was up against the minor premier, and coming off a losing streak having barely limped into the top 4. I think we were beaten by the lowly Bulldogs the week before. And we had no Buckley. Licca carried the team on his shoulders that night in the gutsiest performance I've seen from a pies player. Was it 42 disposals? All while matched up against Brownlow favourite Josh Francou who he kept quiet at the same time.

Such a hero.

A couple that i remember

Swanny on ANZAC day
Pendles v Hawthorn rd1 (2012 I think)
Cloke v Richmond this year
Dids v Geelong (about rd 18 2010)
 
Gees I dunno, been so many. Phil Carman against Fitzroy, H&A season 77 I think. No one on the ground came with a galaxy of his class.

Moments stand out more for me. Twiggy Dunne's mark. Magro and McGuane's runs. Heaps of Gavin Brown games. Leigh Brown holding onto whoever it was's jumper while they tried to no avail to knock his hand off. Shaw's smother.
