Youre right, there was a Clement one. I remember that one clearly as we had a perfect angle to see it unfold. Great stuff.
I remember a Walker one too that yyou might be taking about. To me not as exciting or as crucial as the Clement one. That turned that game.

Scotty Thornton running through the guts at the G and bouncing his way towards a forward 50 entry and then leaving the ball behind was funny but not so good.
Better one was Spider Burton selling the dummy at half forward and dobbing a goal was great.
Also Shauny Mac getting laid out by Wirrpunda and then kicking the goal was a highlight in a horrible game.

My memory isn't what it used to be, but he certainly made his name as a mid.

Anyone else remember Andrew Seigert running down David Wojinski from behind at Subiaco?
I remember a mate of mine at a game one day saying that Dan Parker was a lucky man.I asked why.He said he doesn't have to pay to get in.Gets the best seat in the house and doesn't have to run or get the ball.
Harsh but true.

No, but I can remember Wojcinski trying to get away from Suban, and Suban grabbing him by the jumper - the jumper ripping and revealing Wojcinski had both of his nipples protected by little band-aids. Kinky.

Anybody remember Jon Griffin's start to 2013 when Sandi was injured? He was dominating everything, then comes the game with Collingwood and he goes down injured. Imagine if he'd stayed injury free and played behind Sandi when he had gotten back.

Hahahahaha I remember that! Lost it, then dined out on that story for years in footy friend circles for years after!
Also - that kick from outside 50 by Ben Cunningham to win a game, in 2002 maybe. It must have been so spectacular that he was interviewed on the news the next night.

One of my favourite individual efforts will always be Barlow's first game. He was absolutely sensational and the Crows had no answer.
I thought I’d be the only person who would remember Tim Ruffles. Round 17 2009 Derby - to this day I believe that both sides were trying to tank. Obviously only Senior players were invited to the meeting as after a shockingly poor game by both teams Tim Ruffles snapped 2 goals out of his a$$!
Refecting back those 2 goals cost us potentially getting both Dustin Martin & Fyfe in the one draft and numerous Premierships!
Maybe we would have still gone Morabito and who knows what could have been if his knees didn’t fail.

One of the less-good moments. I always think about that time Jack Anthony tried to play on and then just kind of fell over himself and then Carlton ran it down the other end and kicked the goal. Found a video here

OH and Sibosado’s only career goal. Weird ball drop. Had high hopes for the kid, so did a lot of BigFooty.

Mods he mentioned it.
Never understood how a ruckman don’t even contend for a kick outside 50. Yet Reid has such a clear easy uncontested grab. God smacked too. If Sandi was there, he’d punch that out.
Only clip I could find is Holland kicking 8 against the Eagles but that was playing for the Pies.
We were always going for Morabito. Regardless if we moved higher. Be stupid not to at the time. WA lad.I thought I’d be the only person who would remember Tim Ruffles.

Morabito was insane in his first year, and had a far better year. That’s hindsight unfortunately. Him and Fyfe together would’ve won a flag. Martin would’ve been a go back home pick. He’s a family guy, close to his father. So him being in WA wouldn’t have worked
My memory states that Martin Snr resides in the “Land of the Long White Cloud”.
Spot on mate. It was definitely Clement and 1999. Can't remember the Geelong player but he was quick and Clement mowed him down. It was brilliant. Pretty sure it was Drummy's first win as coach. We lost the first six in a row and think the Cats were near the top of the ladder at the time.
LOVED Clement as a kid. Remember him kicking back to back bags of 5 goals in 1998 against the Eagles and the Bombers. Kevin Sheedy said he had the ability to kick 100 in a season - hahah. I kept the newspaper clipping for years.
I remember looking into the sun at the city end of Subi watching Modra take Mark of the Year against Geelong. First game of the year near the start of the game and I remember thinking, "How good is this?" Back in the day when we'd get just over or just under 20,000 fans to a game.
