Seems you missed a Rochy game Brad...How about the 1990 Rochester/Euroa Grand Final?
Now that was a great game. Entertainment plus for all!

Can't remember much of the game, which is a good thing!

I do remember that awful feeling around the ground moments into the game when one of players was king-hit 100 metres from the ball.

Couldn't squeeze either the Seymour v Euroa 2nd Semi or Grand Final from 2005? Both cracker games. 2nd semi probably better. 11 goals straight to 11.3 at half time, maggies get up by about 9 points or something. Granny Lions come from 16 points down with 12 minutes to go to win by 11.

Word is last years 2nd semi vs swans was also a ripper.

I only saw the 2005 GF and that was a cracker. It should have made the list to be honest. But there are heaps of great games I haven't put on there either.

That GF was a very good game. The standard was brilliant and the finish was surreal.

Sorry to touch a nerve there Brad.
Selective memory hey?
Let it go mate.

Bit late on this one but some good games there Brad.

Just a question though re the 96 GF between Kyabram & Tatura - I thought Ky won fairly easily, though only had 17 on the ground for most of the match due to a send off.

Did you include that won due to the nature of their win being a man down or just a good game generally?

First quarter was awesome. I think Ky kicked 7 or 8 goals before Tatura got their first goal. Then they only had 17 players.

They had been close for most of the 90s, but they weren't going to lose. Ky just dominated and it was a privilege to just watch a team play like that.
