Best game player X has played

[scon]

Added bonus of kicking the goal where he ran through 4 tacklers

That passage of play was the moment 'Fat Nyfe' became 'Cleaver' in my mind.

Walters would be the game vs St Kilda Round 15 this year. 6 goals 30 plus possessions 3 Brownlow votes.

I still can't believe they only gave him 3 votes that day.

Sandilands had a monster game several times, but I vaguely remember 25 possessions, 20 contested, 10 clearances. Anyone remember the one I’m talking about?

Was it the night game at Subi against Geelong in around 2008 or 2009. The one where Pav hit the post in the dying seconds and we lost by less than a goal. Remember he was an absolute monster that game. Geelong were at their best and we were lowly on the ladder at the time, but took it right up to them.

2008 against port he had 20 odd possessions and kicked a few. Maybe thats the one! Remember at the end of that game Barich said he'll win a brownlow one day. Another thing barra got wrong in his journalism career.

3 Brownlow votes, oh wait

I found it, 2008 versus Geelong in round 6. 24 possessions, 20 contested, 42 hitouts, 1 goal, 4 contested marks and 10 clearances. We lost by a point. Think 2008, Freo with a bunch of kids, peak power Geelong.

Arguably his best game.

That's the one, Pav had the shot from about 50m on the boundary with less than a minute to go and it looked home all the way, then slightly deviated at the last minute to hit the post.

Joel Selwood got 3 votes and Sandilands 2. Spare me.

 

[Farrand]

Peter Mann v the Dogs, Round 16, 1997. 19 disposals, 13 marks, 4 goals, 2 brownlow votes. Thought he was going to be a superstar.

David Mundy - 2012 Semi against Adelaide.

 

[electricfeel]

Pav against Geelong in 2010 where Ablett played a blinder too

 

[FD2646]

Lachie Neale, Derby round 3 last year, kicked 3 goals and got a tiny 42 disposals

Like the lachie call but fairly certain that derby was 2015

 

[schnoods]

Zac Dawson vs Collingwood 2013. No Sandilands and Griffin goes down with a knee injury. He proceeds to ruck the rest of the game against a young athletic Grundy and does well. We end up winning after coming from a 20 odd point deficit. Was the point in the year where i thought if we got a break from injuries we might be a serious contender.

 

[mightydockers]

David Mundy - 2012 Semi against Adelaide.

Special. Or the 2013 GF.

 

[FreoRicci]

David Mundy in the 2013 GF. That third quarter. He was just dominating. Clearance after clearance. Clear Norm Smith Medal had we won.
28 disposals (Equal most on the day), 7 clearances, 4 I50

 

[Sean_09]

Matthew Pavlich vs the Scum, Round 19 2012. Kicked 8.2 and outscored them by himself. He's played arguably better games but in my mind it stands out - couldn't do much wrong that afternoon.

Yeah it was, ill fix it

Was it 9 goals in a half versus Adelaide. That was right up there too.

 

[scon]

couldn't do much wrong that afternoon.

Definitely couldn't make a mistake that day
Gave Brown what looked like a copaholiday clip:

"Pavlich even got a fine from the AFL match review panel for what he described as a “graze” to Eagles defender Mitch Brown’s forehead.

“Mitch was being quite aggressive with his body movement and hanging on and I might have had a swinging arm just to say don’t do that any more,” he quipped."

Was going to post this as well, for the gravity of the game his best performance IMO.

8/9/12 - MCG Dockers vs Geelong. Pav boots 6 goals on the big stage and Dockers go through. Was awesome. - http://www.afl.com.au/match-centre/2012/24/geel-v-fre

 

[Tbonefreo]

Also Pav's game way back in a 'Heritage Round' in the red chevrons, 2003 v North in Melb - played as a midfielder and just killed it. Was the game we won by a point and pretty much knew that meant we were heading to the finals for the first time.

I remember this game. It was on my 14th birtbday. Des headland kicked the winning point. Pav went nuts in the last qtr

 

[Tbonefreo]

Paul Medhurst had a blinder against brisbane, kicking 9 goals. Nearly had 10. Great game

That's the one. Des kicked that point almost from on the wing!

I spoke to a Dockers mate that day and said I was thinking of going down the TAB and banging a tenner on Purple J to be top scorer for the AFL round.
He was more of a punter than me and said 'I'd go Medhurst meself.'
