Lost footage of 1990 GF brawl re-emerges

I never thought Terry was one to blatantly lie, good to see this the case with this incident.

Never doubted him. The hit on Starcevich was pretty cold blooded though.

How many weeks did Brown get? That is as bad as it gets. Very Matthews on Bruns like

Was thinking the same thing, carbon copy.

Pretty sure Morwood was a boxer, seems to have the rather flamboyant Kickett under control there.

Nah, Kickett had him by the jumper, and Morwood tried a poorly executed Judo grip break - which did absolutely nothing and Kickett just carried on holding his jumper. It was like he'd seen it in a karate flick and thought he'd go all Bruce Lee on him.

It makes me laugh every time I see it.

Yeah, bring up 1990, ****ing fantastic. Drug scandal next.

Well seeing you mentioned it.....

Just to make it worse - I swear we had our chance. Salmon had that dominant little period in the first quarter which included two behinds - one where he hit the post, another where he missed a very kickable shot straight in the front.

Add them and the other one where Christian (or Kelly) absolutely assaulted him in a marking contest and the free wasn’t paid… all of a sudden we’re five goals on the board.

Instead Collingwood goes forward, Daicos kicks his standard miracle boundary goal and the Pies ignite.

Moments…

There was a moment early where we were trying too hard and you picked us off, a bit like Melbourne's opening burst in 2000. Essendon were a far better side than those Dees so had a few more things gone your way...

You had another dominant period in the late third and last, but Madden hit both posts on one kick IIRC.

We were just a mass of energy, helps to peak at the right time, but that was the remnant of that incredible 80s Sheedy side, I really rate that win.

Odd year. Hawthorn couldn’t beat Essendon (think I went to both games and were destroyed both times) and struggled with Melbourne.
