Opinion Name A Game for new 6 DVD Classics Box Set

[SnakeBaker#29]

Last year we put out a fantastic 6 games DVD Box set of Hawthorn Classics.

We're doing another and need your nominations.

Please dont elect the following games as they made up Volume 1. (Get it from Hawks Shop or Shop.AFL.com.au)

1984 SEMI FINAL VS ESSENDON
1989 ROUND 6 VS GEELONG
1996 ROUND 22 VS MELBOURNE
1999 ROUND 12 VS ST KILDA
2001 ROUND 17 HAWTHORN VS CARLTON
2007 ELIMINATION FINAL VS ADELAIDE CROWS



What has to be in the new set?

 

[Ned Ryerson]

2014 Round 3 vs Fremantle - an absolutely sublime first half with just some magic passages of football being played. 6 Hawks get 30+ disposals.

 

[TheFourPillars]

Round 13 Hawthorn Vs Essendon 2010
Round 17 Hawthorn V Collingwood 2012
Round 17 Sydney V Hawthorn 2015
Round 7 Hawthorn V Richmond 1992
Qualifying final West Coast V Hawthorn 1991
Round 11 Essendon V Hawthorn 1975

 

[Davo23]

Round 13 Hawthorn Vs Essendon 2010
Round 17 Hawthorn V Collingwood 2012
Round 17 Sydney V Hawthorn 2015
Round 7 Hawthorn V Richmond 1992
Qualifying final West Coast V Hawthorn 1991
Round 11 Essendon V Hawthorn 1975

That's a great selection.

The only other one I would consider is the Round 11 v Essendon 2004 - just to see Vanders doing his captaincy proud!

Round 13 Hawthorn Vs Essendon 2010
Round 17 Hawthorn V Collingwood 2012
Round 17 Sydney V Hawthorn 2015
Round 7 Hawthorn V Richmond 1992
Qualifying final West Coast V Hawthorn 1991
Round 11 Essendon V Hawthorn 1975

I'd replace the Collingwood game with the Fremantle game above.

Otherwise, they are excellent choices.

 

[streetspirit]

Forgive me, but what's the significance of the 1975 bombers game? Not apparent in a quick google.

 

[Ram-Man]

I'd like to see these games in their entirety again.

Qualifying Final 1983 Hawthorn v Fitzroy
Semi Final 1991 Hawthorn v Geelong
Semi Final 1982 Hawthorn v North Melbourne
Round 17 1991 Sydney v Hawthorn
Semi Final 2001 Port Adelaide v Hawthorn
Round 6 1986 Hawthorn v Essendon

The famous knights v van der haar contested marking game

 

[Kil Phearns]

1993 Round 13 v North Melbourne (Dunstall and Carey lighting up the G on a wet Friday night, our hero with the winning goal)
2001 Semi Final v Port Adelaide (just days after 9/11, and having to go over to Adelaide on a cargo plane because of the Ansett collapse).
2006 Round 5 v Essendon (Willo's winning goal in the rain)
2008 Round 5 v Brisbane (Franklin/Bradshaw shootout @ the Gabba)
2013 Preliminary Final v Geelong (self-explanatory)
2016 Round 17 v Sydney (Cyril's winning goal)

 

[Hodginator]

Surely the 2013 prelim v the Cats. Would be my number 1.

 

[Pessimistic]

Surely the 2013 prelim v the Cats. Would be my number 1.

With the instruction 'play loud'

 

[Steven Tyler]

Surely you bought the 2013 Victory Pack, which has all our Finals of 2013?

 

[Hodginator]

I did indeed.

The OP asked for matches that should be in a set of classic matches, so I suggested a classic match.

Certainly was a classic
But if I've already got that game on DVD, I wouldn't want it again

I'd love to see the 1983 Final between us and Fitzroy again though

 

[streetspirit]

Agreed. While the 2013 PF is one of the finest non-GF matches of my life, it is easily already available for those interested. Would rather another game in the box set.

That game (and many others) is also on YouTube in a couple of places.
Some of the uploaders have also added various radio commentaries.

Highly recommended uploaders are:
1. "Crazyhawk:
2. "HawthornHighlights" - he also posts on here.

I would love to meet both these guys so I can kiss them!

 

[LuckyHawk]

Round 6 v Geelong '89 is a must, probably the best game of footy l've ever seen.

 

[Bedi]

Should consist of nothing but games played down in Tassie as they're all unforgettable spectacles.

 

[Hawker_85]

The 2015 game against the Swans at ANZ. The flood of Swans fans leaving the ground was glorious.

 

[Davo23]

The 2016 game against the Swans at SCG.

The flood of Swans fans leaving the ground was glorious.

Fixed your post.

 

[WireHawk]

What about the 1992 game against Essendon(UGH!) at the MCG where the Mighty Hawks won by 160 points. Dunstall kicked 12 but wasn't best on ground! Johnny Platten and Darren Jarman tore the Bombres(sic) apart. Sweet decadence!

Was on the Hawthorn's Greatest thrashings dvd

Was my first trip to the MCG, and the start of many happy memories of our colosseum.

I think people need to read the OP before nominating games!
