Yep, very average, one-sided game.
The only reason it “lives on” is Dermie talking about it incessantly for nearly 20 years.
The day he made the Hawks boys into men.
They lost by 12 goals and didn’t even play finals until three years later.
After they’d tanked for Buddy and Roughead, and also drafted Lewis and Birchall.
Oh and sacked their coach and brought in a bloke called Clarkson.
But it was a critical moment that turned the club around. Led by Dermie. Just ask him.

They've disclosed games 21-30
Next up is Ess v WC at Docklands in 04 when Hird goes nuts in the last quarter and hugs the bloke in the crowd.

1970 GF down at #25 is surprising.
#22 is a final featuring Richmond pre-2017, so there's not much suspense in the result!

To be fair the first half was pretty s**t. End of the game was awesome though.
Kapow!!!

I hope they play WC vs WB from 1998 at the WACA. The 1991 QF and 1992 EF vs Hawthorn both great games.
A whole generation of 'Rance vs Franklin is better than Jakovich vs Carey' folk need to watch a good North/WC contest from the mid 90s.

It was a tough contest, Giants getting 5+ goals clear, then the Pies storming home, the controversy with the Thomas goal even though it was clearly touched, Maine's flukey soccer goal, the ball stuck in the Pies F50 for the last 5 mins with the Giants defending grimly, tense finish..
Second half was awesome.

I think the tough slog that this game was plus the extra game contrubuted to GWS horrible GF performance. They looked out of it from the start.

Bombers v WC, fantastic game

That West Coast midfield was so freakishly good. Cousins, Kerr, Judd and Chick all tore us apart.
Hird and Lloyd though. Bring them back Essendon!

Kerr has to be an under-rated figure in terms of 'greatst kicks of all-time'. Was a brilliant one in his prime.
Also it's crazy how indundated this box is for 1997. Three play-by-play guys (Sandy, Morphett, KB), a special comments guy (Tim Watson), the "fourth umpire" (Russo), the video analyst (Lethal) and boundary rider (Kerley). That's like 2018 levels of media saturation.
Modra's ACL looks innocous as * in hindsight.

We were lucky to be that close. If Buddy had of kicked straight we would have lost comfortably.
It was. He was never really the same player after. It also effected his relationship with Blight, as he was gone after 1998. Part of me feels he would have only ever played for the Crows if it didn't happen.
1993 Elimination Final Hawthorn vs Adelaide, considering how big of an underdog we were
2002? Adelaide vs Collingwood, Tarrant kicks the winning goal after the siren.
1998 Semi Final Sydney vs Adelaide, Peter Vardy kicks 6 in the wet
1998 Qualifying final Sydney vs St Kilda, Swans hang on in a thriller. Side Note, those 2 points kept the Crows alive that year, who ended up winning the flag.
None of these games will make, but still great games all the same.

How the * did the Dogs lose this one? I knew about what happened in the fourth but I didn't realise they didn't score a goal from the 20 minute mark in the 3rd quarter.....
