Thought about starting this thread some time ago, but never got around to it.
I quite like the TBT videos the club puts up and reminisce about games of yesteryear and the players involved etc. The purpose of the thread is to discuss the game and some of the players involved etc.
The first one is from last week, the "miracle on grass" game against the Eagles:
What stood out in this small clip was Josh Drummond's precision kicking and goal kicking (x3 in this game). Such a shame we only got 94 games out of him over 9 years, because he could play and his kicking was a huge asset. Compare that to say Joel Patfull who also played for 9 years at the club, yet got 182 games out of himself.
Aside from Josh Drummond; there were so many moments in this game aside from Polkinghorne's goal, such as Niall McKeever's lunging save (would loved to have seen the goal line technology of how close it actually was) or Jed Adcock being involved in the final stages of this game as he was in the lead up to Ash McGrath's match winner in his 200th.
The video also highlighted the regular treatment Jon Brown received without little favours from the ump e.g. 1:52 of the video. It also highlighted Brown's goalkicking from that eastern end forward pocket where he nailed many goals on a right footer's wrong side.
The second video posted today is Bradd Dalziell's first goal against the Dogs:
Like many during his first year in 2008, I thought we had hit the recruiting jackpot following some of his early games. Not sure if they were 20 or 30 + possession games, but he didn't back up the following year in 09 and from memory, not sure he did much else at West Coast thereafter.
Feel free to post previous TBT videos, it is always enjoyable discussing the past and those many memories the Brisbane Lions, Fitzroy and Bears have provided.
