Help me out fans. Name a game!

[Bombertastic]

Just want to get some input from the fans here. I wish to purchase a few games from "Name a game" on DVD. Here is a short list of the 4 best I can think of. Before you say anything I have all the GF wins I can get so I think some other games wouldn't be too bad and will get me though those lonely summer nights. Any other great ones I have missed?

Essendon vs West Coast Round 4 2004 (Hirds final quarter heroics)

Essendon vs Geelong Round Round 6 1993 (Ablett kicks 14, Salmon 10)

Essendon vs Adelaide Prelim Final 1993

Essendon vs North Melb Round 16 2001 (Come back game)

Edit: Sorry for typo in thread title. Can't change now, doh!

 

[Darealrath]

The heritage/centenary or whatever game in '96 vs Geelong when Bewick went mental.

The 2000 QF - football perfection.

The EF vs the Dees in '04 was pretty good. Not great quality, but very gripping.

 

[GoDons]

Round 17, 1999. Essendon vs. North Melbourne.

One of the best quality football matches I've ever seen. Carey kicked 10, Lloyd kicked 7 and Mercuri was at his best.

We were robbed of a great Grand Final that year.

 

[Burzum]

Round 3, 1999. Essendon vs. Sydney

Lloyd kicks 13 in a magical performance.

 

[rainman06]

That ANZAC Day when Hirdy went bananas. I think it was 2003

 

[The Donners]

"The comeback" against the Roos in round 17 2001.

 

[OzBomber]

Essendon vs Bulldogs Round 14 (???) 2002.

Free kick to Lloyd and he misses after the siren to draw the game.

 

[HBF]

Any win against your arch enemy Carlton.

 

[Wildrig]

Any win against your arch enemy Carlton.

might have to buy a few new DVD racks as well

This is available on release DVD - no need to buy from name a game for this one.

In stock, cheaper and on one DVD instead of two

 

[Mr Mojo Risin]

Another great game:

Round 16, July 19, 1993: "Jacket Waving" tradition between Essendon and West Coast begins after Paul Salmon kicks winning goal in two point win at MCG.

 

[Jesse Custer]

Essendon v Hawthorn Rd 11 1993

James Hird comes of age and dominates the Hawks.

Fletcher pulls out to play for his school side.

Great game against the old enemy and Timmy Watson kicking the first goal.

 

[Bronx Bomber]

might have to buy a few new DVD racks as well

Come on you know that's not true.

 

[GoDons]

Any win against your arch enemy Carlton.

There were two great ones in '98.

I still don't know what SOS was thinking.

 

[Ben the Gooner]

Essendon v Brisbane at TD ('05 I think, possibly '04) where we won 160 to 145 or something like that. A real shoot-out.

 

[OzBomber]

Essendon v Brisbane at TD ('05 I think, possibly '04) where we won 160 to 145 or something like that. A real shoot-out.

The one where we broke the streak of games without a win? I was at that game. Bloody ripper.

PS. What's this name a game thing?

Wow, awesome. When I save up some money, I'm gonna buy a ton of games.

It seems they have other sports as well. I wish they had cricket.

I still don't know what SOS was thinking.

" I`m fullback of the century, I`m fullback of the century, ohh **** it`s coming back over my head"

 

[Blind Turn]

Always wanted to revisit out 84 preliminary final thrashing of the pies. Don't know if it's available anywhere though. This game would have to demonstrate the perfection that they had developed during the mid 80s.

 

[Bombs Away]

2 More with different results.

1984 Grand Final - The crowd was great and really got us up, kicked 9.6 in the last quarter for REVENGE

1993 (I think) when we played Carlton and had a draw, Kernahan had the chance to win the game after the siren and choked and kicked it out on the full - Love it for the choke more than anything.

 

[Bomberbrilliance]

-Essendon vs North Melbourne (Rd 17 1999)One of my all time favorites.

-Essendon vs Carlton (Rd 20 2000)Awsome game 1st vs 2nd on the ladder.

-Essendon vs Carlton (Preliminary Final 2000)REVENGE!

-Essendon vs Hawthorn (Preliminary Final 2001)Heart stopping finish!

-Essendon vs Sydney (Rd 19 2001)ALESSIO!

-Essendon vs West Coast Eagles (Rd 11 2007)Hird!

 

[GoDons]

-Essendon vs Carlton (Preliminary Final 2000)REVENGE!

Going to be honest, as nice as it was to win as opposed to the year before, I thought that was a bit of a flat performance.

A long way from one of my favourite wins.

 

[OzBomber]

-Essendon vs Hawthorn (Preliminary Final 2001)Heart stopping finish!

!

I was only 8 then, but the only thing I remember about that game is Trent Croad hitting the post from 50 half way up. I think that would've put them in front and they probably would've won.

 

[EVERLAST]

Against Carlton in 97 if I remember correctly - Silvagni mistimes his kick out with 30 seconds to go after Mercuri comes close to scoring the late winner - Lucas scopps up the loose ball and stabs it home with 10 secs to go for us to seal victory.

Against Nth Melbourne in 2000 qualifiying final - still get goosebumps watching this avalanche of goals - including Lloydy's 100th - Misiti's goal from well outside 50 and Rama's late one handed speckie with Richard Osbourne's commentary 'Showtime - boys!!' David King kicks 6 for the Kangas as a side show.
