I re-watched that prelim last night - genuinely one of the best games of footy I've ever seen. Macrae's goal in the last quarter has to be up there with any of the great clutch goals. Very underrated player.I openly cried at the end. And after bont’s goal in the last. And Macrae’s winner. It was just pure emotion. My local club had won their own grand final that day and I wasn’t in the side. This made up for it.
Shed a tear walking into the mcg the next week but no time for tears after the final siren. It was absolute pandemonium from picken’s last goal onwards.
If PA was Victorian it would be better quality footage.probably about 6 or 7 times. it's been a long time since i've watched it though. the "official" afl dvd that was put out was absolutely putrid quality.
Got the 3peat DVD box set, at a guess I would say I would have watched it at least a dozen times in the few years after, haven't watched any of the 3 for at least 10 years now.
got to say I watched the 2001 & 2002 GFinals ON Fox JUST recently . brutal GAMES, great to watch . I would love to have been a Hawks or Lions supporter sometimes, great memories and great teams. Other clubs can only dream of that type of dynasty!!You bloody well should watch them more often! I marathon the Brisbane Lions threepeat a few times a year.
I have multiple copies of the Brisbane Lions grand final dvds. I collected them individually when they came out year on year, I picked up the Victory box set (admittedly some time after 2003........ it was very cheap compared to being over $100 when it first came out!). And I collected them yet again in the 25 years of AFL grand finals box set late 2014. I recently converted them digitally as well, I've got quite a few grand finals (and other general footy matches) that I can now watch on my Samsung tablet .
Yep, you can hang your hat on a 3peat a lot longer than a singular GF victory, didn't really worry me at all when we fell off the cliff in 2005, we've been struggling ever since except for a brief surge in 2009. Starting to wear very thin now though, it's time for us to become contenders again.got to say I watched the 2001 & 2002 GFinals ON Fox JUST recently . brutal GAMES, great to watch .

The 02 and 03 grand finals are worth it for Eddie's sad face alone. Let alone the tremendous football on display
Can't say I've seen the '44 premiership.
I could never rewatch the 2000 and 2001 Wimbledon finals. You must be either a masochist or a Pat Rafter hater.My sig is a little out of date. I rang in the new year by watching the Eagles '18 premiership.
So I don't bore people I'll add that I can watch Hawthorn losses without much fuss. I only watched a highlights clip of 2012 after it, but I watched the full game from start to finish AND the after match presentation in the lead up to the 2014 gf..... since then I watch 2012 gf 2-3+ times a year.
In terms of other sports
The '99 world cup final (and also semi final) get watched a bit.
Various Australian Opens (08, 09 etc), Wimbledons (00, 01, 02, 08, 09 etc), US Opens - tennis get watched a lot too.
I have a few NFL Superbowl games and NBA Finals series that get watched occasionally as well.

They were. And heartbreaking. I just can't.They were great games!
I don’t think I’ll ever be able to do thatI've watched the Coll game in full.
