Looks like the bye week is bringing out the collectors. Can't help you Stevo, I did have a copy of the first game on VHS and sadly they were accidentally thrown out along with one of my favourite recordings; Freo's first derby win. It happened about 10 years ago, and though I wasn't happy, I didn't really care too much at the time, but now days I think it would be pretty cool to have. In any case, I reckon you could get it in a digital format (DVD or soft copy) somewhere about the place, someone would have a copy.

If you're really desperate, I know from my brief time working in the industry that the clubs themselves archive all their games - at least they used to. The club might be able to help you out, though the tight copyright controls these days may make it hard for them to get it to you, but if you're desperate, it might be worth a try.

I know the feeling, my 1# team is Adelaide, I had some games recorded from the early naughties but erased some, regret it now, and wish i had of recorded more back in the day and kept them.
Im slowly collecting Dockers games, always had a soft spot for them until they vs Adelaide, unfortunatly I dont have many of their games yet but though their first would be a good one to get

Aw man I would love this! I was there but I was so young I can barely remember anything that happened.

From memory I only watched bits an pieces of it and only started watching it properly at the end when I noticed it was close.

That other thread about the jumper was a bit of necromancy from 2009. I got more likes for my post from back then this week than I did back then!

Right, didn't notice, just had a quick glance didn't look at the thread carefully.

Did they have 'like buttons' back then?

That is a good question. I think so but I'm not sure if likes survived the big site upgrade.
But I could be completely wrong, my memory for such details is uneven at best.

Likes didn't exist back then, they came in around June 2012.

I remember the ball deep in our forward line with about 30 seconds to go and some flog umpire took 20 seconds to bounce the ****ing ball, at a time when the clock didn't stop for ball ups.

I've got the first derby win on VHS somewhere in the dungeon if anyone is keen. Can't promise it's the whole game but definitely got Modra's brilliant game winner.
