Best win of 2017?

[AlorraVex]

In your opinion what was the most enjoyable win of the Home and Away season this year? If you were to watch one replay this week in the lead up to the QF, which would it be?

 

[Harry Bosch]

Dees , just so good to beat those muppets after being under the pump early..

I really enjoyed the Port Adelaide win, and the Melbourne win.
Melbourne particularly, as we were 20 points down at 3/4 time to come back and win. Loved watching the snow skiiers tiers.

May have been a bit of low hanging fruit but I went the Freo win.
Everything clicked. We looked awesome.
More importantly it came late in the year and is a real confidence builder going into Sept.

Mine was the GWS win at the MCG. We didn't come to play until quarter time. After quarter time it was a different, very enjoyable ball game.

GWS win was mint. Port, Melbourne, Essendon, lolnorf, lollingwood, Fremantle all very nice as well

Umm, I am going to go with the West Coast win in Round 3. Yes, it doesn't look as impressive in hindsight but that was probably the game where I started to think that we could genuinely be a good side. Our gameplan looked good and our pressure was great, especially after half time.

Other wins that I liked were the GWS, Melbourne, Port Adelaide, Hawthorn and St Kilda wins.

The Fremantle win for our accuracy in front of goal and the margin.

 

[Gosha]

Loved beating Melbourne but went for the GWS win. We were insipid up until quarter time and we turned it around.

Melbourne, Port & Hawks

It was about half way through the Hawthorn game where I turned around to my mate and said "we can actually win the flag this year"
Funnily enough, I received two texts from non-richmond supporting mates within the next 30 minutes saying Richmond can win the flag.

 

[TigerImposter]

Sorry guys none of the above.
VFL EF against the pies topped everything for me.
BEATING pORT WAS A HIGHLIGHT.

 

[Maroo]

It's easily the Port win for me.

The Melbourne win was very nice considering our record against them, but the comeback has a slight * next to it because it was with 3 Demons on the bench injured. The GWS one was good too, but it was on our home deck with GWS in patchy form with a shocking record there.

The Port game came after an 8 game stretch where we went 3-5, including wins against Carlton and Norf. In that time we were belted in Adelaide, lost consecutive close ones to the Dogs, Freo & GWS and another to Sydney.

If anyone really remembers the Port game, it was a very high pressure game and in the third quarter it really looked like Port was about to rip it open. Stepping up from there to get & keep our noses in front was a sign of real quality and maturity and is why it was the most enjoyable to me.

St Kilda rd 23. Could have easily sh*t the bed and dropped out of the 4, but did a proper job on them and had the result sealed at half time. Very mature win.

Melbourne, Port and GWS also note worthy.

Qualifying final against the Cats. Really stood up in the wet with Dustin proving his worth and Towno having another day out

 

[Goldust]

Port ... the win where I started to believe we were a genuine threat and not just a pretender of previous finals campaigns in '14 and '15.
We were seriously challlenged that night and responded

 

[Downtown06]

The Dees cause we had all these snobby rich elders behind us yelling out "GO JESSIE!!!!!" for the whole match.

I was yelling "Keep punching the darts Jessie!!!!!"

Had Kane Lucas sitting next to us and we even celebrated with him.

Agreed. But when the OP posted "If you were to watch one replay this week in the lead up to the QF..." the Port game is hampered by us being the away team, and the atmosphere lacks when we get our run on, for mine.

So to answer the question, probably the Dees or GWS home games.

 

[Hans McGregor]

Melbourne for me. Hadn't beaten them for a long time. We'd been playing terrible but were able to turn it around. They were being pricks for the whole game. Such an arrogant team with absolutely no reason to be.

Them missing finals was the cherry on top. And people give us a hard time for 'getting ahead' of ourselves.

 

[_RT_]

Where is the flag option?

 

[MosquitoBrigade]

Port win for sure....made that flog Cornes eat his words!

 

[Frustrated Tiger]

Isn't there a thread here where someone posts game replays? Wouldn't mind watching that Melbourne last quarter again.

 

[rfctigerarmy]

Port game for me.

Hawthorn and GWS wins were great too, which had a fair bit of pressure associated with them.

Freo win, I felt like we played our best football. Hard to judge, based on the opposition though.

Sept 24 & 30

 

[Hoos]

I'm going to go with the GWS game, narrowly over the Port match. To completely dominate GWS after quarter time made me suddenly think...s**t...we can win this.

Hopefully the best is yet to come.

There's no match on the 24th.
