Literally came in here to post about Fitzroy.



Good games vs Essendon and Adelaide in 1993. Nice randomness on all fronts.

I remember a good Fitzroy v Collingwood game in the wet in 93 at Princes Park.

On SM-G925I using BigFooty.com mobile app

Is there still a Fitzroy board?

 

[Shell]

Ah so there is. Most recent post about 2 weeks ago.

Junction oval with my rellies Hawks V Lions was a treat

Been to 5 after the siren kicks for 100% wins, firstly, Geelong v Carlton, Geelong v Western Bulldogs, Geelong v Fremantle, Geelong v Hawthorn and Geelong v Melbourne.
We kicked for goal in the first and last game, all the rest the opposition kicked and missed.

That Carlton one my mates wanted to leave before the last bounce and I went Nah, Might as well stay till the siren.

I can sorta remember the Fitzroy game when they got buttf**ked in Adelaide.
People went and graffitied AFL house.
They really got screwed the poor Roys.

We left. I dragged my mum out of there blinded by rage. (from level 3 down to L1 where we realised we had won)

Learnt a valuable lesson that day.

Geelong are fairly good in games decided by less than a kick tho iirc. I saw a stat somewhere, sometime- cant recall the %.

OhNo. Fair enough that last 50m was so infuriating. Dont blame anyone for leaving.
I didn't think we were gonna win or anything, just thought f**k it, watched the whole game, might as well stay till the end.

Always stay till the end as you just never know. Lol

I went with my family and they were all Carlton and I was the only that was Geelong so it was an interesting trip home on the train that one.

I reckon we are. Started from the Billy one.

I honestly assumed there couldnt have been more that 5 seconds on that clock left.
Ah well my mistake i think it was 22.

The stupid thing was I didn’t realise we had kicked a goal so I was sitting down with a sad look on my face, then dad is like you kicked it and so jumped up with excitement about 2 minutes after, must of looked like a real **** lol

 

[Cats_R_Cool_4_Ever]

My fav out of all of them was the Geelong v Hawthorn QF though, as Smith marked it and Corey Enright is lying on the ground thinking ****, siren has gone, Smith has the biggest grin on his face, like got ya’s, then he goes in and misses the goal by a mile...

Wasnt at it but the Hawkins one against the Hawks was a ripper. What a game. Amazing

 

[Cats_R_Cool_4_Ever]

Did either of you guys go to the Carlton v Geelong game at Optus Stadium in 2004? That’s the worst game Geelong has ever played.

yeah it was amazing, think all the neighbours got woken up though.

 

[Cats_R_Cool_4_Ever]
