Oh, and Jeff Farmer advances to the next round. Jack Viney has been eliminated.
 
Worshipped Ox as a kid in the early-mid 90s, and could've won this whole thing if he stayed healthy.

Has to be Ooze though I think, based off longevity and overall impact.

Yze from the boundary in 1997


Yze from the boundary 2002 (also featuring Vardy)

God I miss Quarters
 
Would have been good to win a premiership with channel 10 commentators. Leo Barry you star is just about my favourite call. Mind you bang!....bang! bang! bang! Pretty memorable too.

Would rather lose playing like we did against Adelaide than win finals 63 def 58 🥱

Was an epic game, probably should have won but allowed 2 goals in a minute late in the 3rd. Doesn't matter we probably lose to Collingwood the following week anyway.

Expected us to run out of steam , Powell got knocked out early in the first quarter and we were down by 6 or 7 goals at quarter time. The best game I've ever been to regardless of the result. Just an awesome spectacle from both sides.

The other game that comes to mind we lost also, the merger game, an absolute beauty. Players going hard, plenty of goals from both teams. I think Dunstall kicked 10 and brought up his 100 for the season and Neitz kicked 7 or 8.

The no merger could have been the last game for both clubs, so the players gave it their all, it was finals like. Pretty sure melbourne had chances to score and hawthorn defended like crazy, they actually needed to win to make finals. Still remember Richmond supporters in bay 13 or there abouts cheering hard for Melbourne, could see Richmond flags go up after every melbourne goal. Was such a historic night, one which I was glad to witness live despite the result. I also remember getting a no merger sign that was being handed out as I entered.
