After watching Plugger kick his 1300th goal, courtesy to Runvs, I started to reminisce about other memorable moments. These are my favourites:

Davis’ 4 goals against Geelong in the 05 semi finals. To this day it still sends shivers down my spine hearing: ‘I see it, I see it but I don’t believe it!”

Leo’s Mark in the Grand final

Plugger kicks his 1300th

Plugger kicks us into the Grand final

The final against Port Adelaide, where Kirk was pummelled by Byron Pickett but got right back onto his feet

yeah, i was watching it on telly
and i think it was tim lane's commentary
"...and the swans are into the grand final"
although anything from that last quarter seven-goals-in-10-minutes smashing of saints
or the seven-goal second quarter in the win over port in 03, also gives me a warm feeling right now thinking about it
 
"AND THE MAN WHO STARTED IT, THE SCHNEIDER MAN CAN KICK HIS 3RD FOR THE QUARTER AND THE SWANS ARE IN THE GRAND FINAL!"

"NICK DAVIS NICK DAVIS I SEE IT BUT I DONT BELIEVE IT"

"LEO BARRY YOU STAR"

I remember my dad throwing me over the fence so i could run onto the feild with everyone else to celebrate pluggers 1300th

Those are the ones that always get me

oh and there was one game i remember watching at the airport i was going back to boarding school in melbourne it was against port...100 to 88 it was awesome coz i remember getting back to boarding school and running up to David Hunter and i said "Look who sucks now" that was a good day

Hall's 50 metre kick 4th qtr '05 GF...

Probably one of the sweetest kicks i've seen...actually the passage of play 2nd qtr culminating in Kennelly's goal is an even bigger moment.. showing the Swans 'game plan' in full swing..

The single-most underrated goal of all time!

Nick Davis' goals 3 seconds out from the siren in the 05 QF, and the way BH, Goodes, R'OK, Jason Ball and practically the whole team got it there in the first place.

No bias :D

Oh, and the 2003 Season. Just the whole of it, looking back.
 
Leo's mark pretty much overshadowed BH's goal, but that's okay. Some things should be kept sacred.

EDIT: India won the ODI. Thank god :D
 
Ok you have covered a lot of the "biggys" BUT

Paul Kelly the whole lot!!!!

against North Melb shrugs tackles & smashes thru 3 opponents kicks the must kick game changing goal... pumps fist in air!

did same thing again against Weagles a year or so later

his 1994? finalist nomination for mark of the year (for a then a short slight little bloke) was breath taking!

theres much .....more more more

Yeah, that one didnt come straight to mind but its definately up there for me. While there has probably been more important and emotional moments I have witnessed at the football I don't think I have ever been as pumped up as I was when he kicked that goal. Also..... Bazzas long range goal in that game got me pretty fired up too.

Some other memorable ones (I'll leave out the obvious ones):

Drought ending win against Melbourne.
Roosys 300th against North at Optus Oval. We flogged em and Roos played a blinder.
Pluggers 16 goal haul against Fitzroy at the Whitten Oval.
The win against West Coast in the last H&A game of 96 to finish top of the ladder.
Our demolition of Carlton in 95.

I absolutley loved that game we were 8 goals down at one stage and goal was something special. Typical Kelly bust through 3 guys still stumbling all over the place slams it ont he boot and through it goes magic stuff.

That was just amazing. I was sitting in the AFL members and these Saints supporters were giving me s...t all game. We Schneider kicked that goal I jumped up out of my seast and rubbed their faces in it. Oh how sweet it was. :thumbsu:
 
i honestly don't think there is a bigger memorable moment in Swans history than Nick Davis' solo effort against Geelong.

In a low scoring slug fest, he pops up and kicks 4 goals with the last being with just seconds left. There has been some great moments, but i dont think i will ever forget that night.
 
I remember in the 2002 season dayne cresswellls goal from the boundry after the siren against north melbourne to put us in front was pretty special (i was singing the song all over the house afterwards and my dad jsut laughed and taped me singing) then the whole 2003 season was great we lsot alot of very good players came out and finished top four.

the whole finals series in 2005 was very special i remember being at the prelim final on the second level in a bunch of swan supporters and we were all singing the song halfway through the last quarter that was a great time.
Was also at the nick davis vs geelong game on wrong end of ground couldn't even see the goal through the rain btu we knew something happened because of a giant cheer. i was actually sayign a prear to god when he kicked it saying all these different i wills if we manage to win this.

then the grand final i was actually crying when leaping leo barry tooke that mark and i spewed after teh game because of dehydration lol
 
whoa :eek:

some pretty full on memories for you!
i always get jittery before a game and can't seem to stop myself fiddling with random things.
