Both are incredibly lucky it only hit on his shoulder (or at least a glancing blow to the noggin).

The slow mo replays of how it neatly floats to ah chee who kicked it in one movement was great

Yeah, I've watched that slow mo replay a dozen times....it's magnificent to see the artistry behind the action.

Slightly off topic. What was the turning point in this finals series for you...so far.

For me it was Fletcher's goal on the run against GWS.
The clearest ones (in hindsight)

Daniels miss, then we kick one straight away

Mannagh miss - then we kick one straight away

In both cases we are well behind but from that point we kicked the next few goals to get in front

For me the moment Fletcher kicked that goal was the first moment i thought we were actually a good chance of winning

And the Morris goal was the same - the 2 goal break in the last quarter, even though we gave up the lead!
 
Have listened to a few of these and they are all pretty good .

Except for ABC , I thought Malthouse would be in a nursing home by now , but it’s obvious he still hates the Lions .
Melthouse was the only one in the ABC box to tip the Lions pregame 🤯

The ABC's call of the final few minutes of this game is awesome. The Rayner speccy, the Stewart tackle, the Henry goal, the Ah Chee goal, the Rayner goal, the Payne tackle, the Stanley poster. Absolutely hectic final 4 minutes. Had pretty much everything.

Wait, is this the prelim or the GF?

GF. JB did muck up their pre sale and when I emailed them about it, confirmed their mistake and are sending the box set free of charge later this month 😎

I still keep asking myself, ‘what if Answerth slipped over”.

So many magic moments crammed into 5 minutes. With the season on the line. At the G. 90,000+ fans all transfixed just screaming .. losing their minds. Sitting with the faithful behind the City goal. Ebb and flow. Up and back. In front behind and back in front. Are you kidding ?

I was sitting in the front row of the top tier behind the cheer squad. Right behind the Ah Chee and Rayner goals. Unforgettable.
 
I would go back even further and say that Lohmann’s dance around goal from the mark with 8 minutes to go in Q3 against GWS is when we flicked the switch and started to play with some dare which then continued on all the way to the premiership win.

I think Lohman realised that got too close to the man on the mark, didn't panic, stepped him and kicked the goal. Insane skills.

Mine was slightly earlier to that one. I was on the ground for that game with my mate, we fell back 80-36 and then Kai made it 80-42. But when Zac Bailey did a circle and kicked his goal to make it 80-67, I stood up and roared.

In spite of all the ups n downs that Bailey goes through, he's my biggest barometer in the forward line. When Bailey is up n about kicking goals and setting up play, we play with an aura of anything is possible. We can reel in any score as he'll play center forward and continue to do some insane stuff in a blink of an eye.
