Hey Lucky Star , love what you've been doing here. Was wondering if I could help out with adding some occasional footage to each game's write-up? Something like this?
However, I don't want my channel to be flooded with small Chris Grant clips, so I'm testing out uploading the videos as 'Unlisted', so only those in this thread can view the videos.
EDIT: In fact I think a better way to keep the thread a bit tidier would be if i posted this link to a Chris Grant playlist i'll add some videos to, so that Lucky Star can edit the originial posts to include the videos.

Only if you're interested though, of couse.
Mate that would be awesome sackofballs
I don't suppose you've got footage of the McDonalds ad that Granty did in around 1998 in your archives (cheeseburger I believe)? That would be the cherry on the cake!
Just had a look, but don't think I have that nor have I seen it before, only found a Dougie Hawkins ad from 98 for Tattslotto . I have a lot of stuff from 2002 onwards, but before that the collection is pretty scattered.
I went to that game with family and friends. Luke Darcy also kicked 5 goals (one per quarter and two in the last)Game #264 - Round 12, 2002 vs St Kilda at Docklands (21/6/02)
One of our best, kicking 3.1 from 15k, 8hb (also 5 R50s) in 47-point win over the Saints, the Dogs' 5th win on the trot.
Granty kicked a couple of goals early, then was sent back in defence to steady the ship when St Kilda challenged in the third quarter. In the last quarter he showed his class and leadership by steering through a fine left-foot shot from near the boundary line.

This game is pretty special for me as it was the first game of footy that I ever went to - for some of you old blokes that might seem very recent but I was 5 years old at the time! I even had a Grant connection in this game - not that I remember it, but according to my old man, apparently I patted Chris Grant on the back when he was next to the fence.Game #263 - Round 11, 2002 vs Fremantle at Princes Park (9/6/02)
Kicked 1.0 from 2k, 11hb in 65-point drubbing of Freo. Granty set the tone early, soaring over Shane Parker in the first quarter to take a spectacular mark before converting for a goal.
Byron Pickett killed us that game and nathan brown gave the north cheer squad the birdGame #254 - Round 2, 2002 vs Kangaroos at Docklands (6/4/02)
Kicked 1.1 from 11k, 5hb in 13-point loss to the Kangas.
Grant started the game at full back and spent long periods on the bench, apparently with a slight groin injury. His impact was minimal. His most significant moment came in the second quarter when Glenn Archer attempted to readjust his spinal set-up, by mistiming a punch at the ball and landing one heavily on the back of Grant's neck. While Grant had long maintained he had no worries about such collisions, the incident was significant in that it removed any doubt about the willingness of opposition players to fully test him after the preseason dramas surrounding his neck issues.
