What about Marty Mattner's fantastic chase down on the outer wing to prevent a Hawthorn coast to coast scoring opportunity and potential lead change? You could tell Mattner was stuffed but he still willed himself for another gut busting run to put enough pressure on Birchall (who was initially free) to make sure the ball ended up out of bounds - inspirational stuff. Actually the whole game was underrated - fantastic GF and only surpassed by 1989 IMO.
