Outstanding individual performance's for 2008

[Merv]

David Hale's 8 goals against Geelong.

Especially since it was in a losing team.

Not much more he could have done to get them over the line.

 

[Bring-Back-Powell]

I have suffered as my team got 222 points kicked against them by your mob 18 months ago.

What did I do? I stayed till the final siren cheering my team on.

You're the one riding a premiership wave of success, bandwagoner

Don't bother with that geelong sook.
He's still crying about his team performing the biggest choke in VFL/AFL history.

 

[abs_of_STEELE]

Medhurst's last quarter against West Coast.
Rocca against Geelong, he completely took Scarlett away from the ball and left room for Cloke.

 

[Themi#9]

Deledio all year, especially against the dees kicked like 4goals and got over 20 touches

 

[PieLebo87]

petrie vs collingwood was the best game by anyone in 2008

Disagree, only because of this....

Shaun Burgoyne v Collingwood - 33 disposals, 18 clearances, 3 Brownlow votes (in a side that went down by 31 points).

I watched Burgoyne's game in awe that night. It wasn't matchwinning, but we just couldn't stop him. Lade went alright that night too.

the fev vs. collingwood rnd12 and..
kreuzer in the game against port, rnd 11?

 

[Bollox]

The Ablett performance agaisnt us early season might get the gong.
It was really a 15-20 minute period tho of total destruction to take the game away. From memory there was only about 7-11 pts in it at about the 10 min mark of the last then he went ballistic.

The 1st yr player Kieran Jack had come off a great game against Kerr earlier in the season as well as a cpl of other good games so Roos probably left him on Ablett when a move might have been warranted. Showing faith is a two way street tho and doesnt always work out.

Ablett had already had a great game but that last 15mins was definitely the best for the yr in my books.

 

[bombersrbest05]

David Hille's game against Dean Cox was elite 27 disposals 9 marks 22 hitouts 3 goals and 6 inside 50s

 

[Collins-Langford-Ayres]

Interesting point there mate.
I just remembered Morton and Wheatley being a class above everyone else that day - which was reflected in the brownlow medal votes.

What, they got three each?

How was the allocation of Brownlow votes different from any other game?

That is one of my all time favourite matches... not because of the teams involved, I just always wanted to see a team get 200... sorry Tiges fans


Anyways, I remember Daniel Motlop had 7 goals in 3 quarters this year, thats one that comes to mind as a fantastic performance

 

[dipper86]

Franklin vs Bulldogs. 2nd Qualifying Final.

8 Goals. Buddy had the ball on a string, Some of the goals he was kicking left you in disbelief. He was just amazing that night.

 

[Cudi]

Adam Cooney, Rd 7 Vs Sydney
26 disposals, 5 goals

Adam Cooney, Rd 12 Vs Brisbane
37 disposals, 2 goals

 

[Herne Hill Hammer]

Aaron Sandilands' match versus Geelong at Subiaco. Friday night game.

Yes Sandilands had a monster game, but a young bloke with about 25 games to his name dragged Geelong over the line that night, Joel Selwood.

 

[Big Nasty]

Ablett's game against Nth Melbourne had the experts calling it one of the greatest individual performances of the modern era by a midfielder, when he gathered 39 touches, and 2 goals, and had something like 26 kicks.

Also his game against Sydney in round 5, Ablett racked up 254 SC points... Anyone familiar with Supercoach, knows thats impressive.

 

[Winner]

Andrew Welsh V Chris Judd....

Agree. Stats don't tell the true story, Welsh tore him a new one.

 

[Kochie 16]

Adam Cooney, Rd 12 Vs Brisbane
37 disposals, 2 goals

I would have to agree with this one, Cooney tore us a few new ones that day.

 

[Leather Poisoning]

For the hawks:

Brad Sewell vs Port Adelaide. 34 touches: 11K 23HB 6M 2G 2B 6 I50 and 1 assist.

Lewis was also awesome that day but I thought Sewell dragged us back from 5 goals down to a winning position that day. Brilliant.

Mitchell, both games against Collingwood:
18K 21HB 5M 2 goal assists, 5 inside 50s
18K 17HB 6M 0 gpa; assost. 9 inside 50s
74 possessions across those two games and Malthouse still didn't tag him.

And of course, Buddy's 8-goal hauls against Collingwood, Brisbane, Essendon(9) and the Doggies.

 

[Collins-Langford-Ayres]

Was it Hale against the Cats that kicked 8, many on Scarlett? Not many have done that against the Cats in a losing team.

 

[Bulldog1954]

Franklin vs Bulldogs. 2nd Qualifying Final.

8 Goals. Buddy had the ball on a string, Some of the goals he was kicking left you in disbelief. He was just amazing that night.

He was amazing There were times where our defenders did well and got the ball to ground in marking contests yet he would just pick it up and bang it through from fifty off one step. He was unstoppable

 

[Dogs_r_barking]

Yep, he was good without a doubt, a bit quiet earlier in the year when the China doll played on him though Fingers crossed he stays injury free.

 

[jezaroo]

The most outstanding - Gary Ablett v North.

Kicked our ass, would of kicked anyones ass!!

 

[Birchustar]

The most outstanding - Gary Ablett v North.

Kicked our ass, would of kicked anyones ass!!

that was just an amazing performance. i think he shrugged about 30 tackles that night, then he would burn them off with his pace and hit up one of geelongs fowards lace out.

top shelf

 

[DoggiesMate7]

Cross Vs Melb R2 haha dominate

COOOOONNNNEEEYYY Vs Bris & Syd no wonder he is the Brownlow medalist
