Great Stats

I was at Kardinia Park for this one
It was some time before we won again at the Park - but this was a great win
85 was a great year
Worth a watch

Geelong	7.9 10.13 14.19 17.22​	124​	Sat 29-Jun-1985 2:10 PM Att: 19,616 Venue: Kardinia Park
Footscray	7.3 12.6 17.8 23.8​	146​	Footscray won by 22 pts [Match stats]

Interesting piece of trivia - in his 19 year career Ted Whitten Sr had 14 trips to Kardinia Park and never once came away with a win (but he did manage a draw).

2015 game at marvel against the crows. Quickest and slickest we’ve played I reckon. Completely cut them up and a joy to watch.

Round 21 2000 if you can get it.

Also round 5 2015 v Sydney.

At all costs avoid the prelim of 1997

don't mention that retched match. I smashed my trainee and nearly got arrested.

Rnd 22 1998 v Nth Melbourne at MCG.

Winner finishes top of the ladder, 68k in attendance from memory which was our biggest home away ground at the time(iirc)

Great game of footy.

 

[VogonProsthetnic]

Any game against Richmond in the since 2015. We seem to play out of our skins against them.

Naughton’s ‘even Jesus Christ wouldn't have stopped him’ game was my favourite.

 

[Filthy Sanchez]

Anyone know where I can watch West Coast v Western Bulldogs 2016 EF?

Thanks.

1985 VFL Round 20 Footscray vs Hawthorn at Western Oval.

Loved that game. Wind going to Barkly Street End only one goal kicked to Geelong Road End it was cold, rainy and muddy BUT we won and secured the double chance.

Deep into last qtr we were in front by a kick and I was front row outer wing under coaches box Gordon st side getting ready to jump onto the ground when the siren would sound. It just so happened that a diesel country train was passing West Footscray station and it sounded its horn and I jumped the fence and entered the playing arena and could hear my brother yelling at me get back siren hasn’t gone. Great memory for me anyway.

Season 1999, Round 14, Swans v Dogs.

Q1 Kretuik gets taken out, Swans 7 goals up and all over us.

And then we score 17 goals to 6 in a ripping comeback over 3 quarters.

I was there sitting amongst Swans members. They gave me s**t in Q1, but after that I was a red white and blue superman.

And not very popular.

Watch it, a great game.

Excellent contributions by everyone in this thread.

One of my favourite games from yesteryear is St. Kilda vs Footscray in Round 17 1992.

Heaps of our fun players out, playing at a ground we had a crap record at, a formidable Saints team including Plugger and we came away with a 3 goal win.

I was at that one too
Same side of the ground half forward southern end - not to far away
Great win - disappointing we didn't get Hawthorn in the finals too

Just had a look at the end of this - pretty awesome!
