when he's on one knee pumping his fist the way he did after that goal i got that winning. It was because seeing that celebration meant he was feeling like a winner too.
Seeing the breathtaking goals is one thing but seeing the players get excited after a goal or a win is just as good for me. (Stevie J's and Gaz's after goals late in the prelim a perfect example)

Not at all mate.
i was so wound up i threw up before the match. had to watch it alone, at home, cause i couldn't be around other people - win, lose or draw.
wasn't till the 4th quarter that i really believed, then it's all a blur!
still, highlights:
* King being selected and playing a blinder
* Otto's run down
* Chappy's mark
* Scarlo's run from defence and domination of wetshoff
And the boys holding up the CUP!!

If I had to pick one it would probably be Nathan's one-hander in front of goal - that put us about 50 points in front and and was pretty much the sealer in my mind

Stretched out on a couch at a mates with a cute broad (geelong supporter) in my lap. We were the only two Geelong supporters there.
Was on tv 3 times. Yes 3. Back of my head 5 mins in 1st quarter focused on us showing our view of the ground. 13 mins of play to go in the last, and just before the presentation lookin like a dick. Camera hovered all over us all day in top tier.
Game memories 20 mins before bounce i suddenly got REALLY REALLY pumped. Chappys mark, Moons 3rd qtr goal celebrating hardcore with my passout outside ground with mates i was not sittin with.
The lift of the cup itself was what i was waiting 4 and WE ARE GEELONG.

Are u the guy with the big guns and the cats beanie?
Wait im lookin at the dvd, thought u had a beanie on or something, but u were dancing and pumping your fists in the air? lol
i remember that guy from the telecast as well. what a champ.
I remember watching the Chapman goal at the start of the second quarter and realising that there was no way we could lose. I was watching the game with my brother who along with me had been a diehard Geelong fan since the day he was born. The weight lifted off my shoulders was amazing. The feeling will never be repeated for as long as I live.
Mine has to be when the siren went just that Joy knowing we have finally won a premiership and then meeting up with the bro later for some beers.
Then to top this off having the premiership cup for a night at my hoise was a total blowout and something i will nevere ever forget.
Most of my memories are from the first quarter. The main 3, in chrono order are:
1. Stokes is carried off, Port Adelaide move the ball efficiently up to Ebert 30m out. With Geelong 1 man down, Ebert about to kick the first of the match, I thought "This cannot happen again".
2. Ablett smother and runs into an open goal. Awesome.
3. Quarter time, try to send a text message to my mum, cant do it because I am shaking. The lady next to me laughs and asks if I want her to write it. Gee I was pumped!

- Jimmy's snap
- Otto's chasedown - inspirational
- Max's tackle
- Otto missing a couple of easy shots in the 2nd - here we go again...
- Mooney's goal in the 1st minute of the 3rd quarter - surely we can't lose now
- 3 quarter time was the first time I realised that at 90 points up, even with our history we couldn't possibly lose
- the bloke made up to look like a cat who reminded me of max rooke
