Fantastic Five: Peter Matera's best moments | AFL

[@Drock7104]

Possibly the most skilful player of all time. Long kick... could use both sides of his body, incredibly accurate and fast.

[@wce05308]

Dane Oddy that goal in the pocket against Sydney was epic

[@clairash2004]

And underrated so badly.

[@nathansmart1532]

I agree,he played tall like a Buckley with the Flair of Cyril Rioli,Only Blackfullas can put a Smile onya Dial like that.What a 🌟 Player!!!!

[@tankq888]

Peter Matera, you're the reason why I'm an eagle supporter and I'm from Melbourne.

[@CursoryMercenary]

Magnificent player, glad they showed highlights from that night he kicked 7.

[@MrGaRtY26]

What a legend of the game loved his work on the field

[@luapjb]

One word is appropriate to describe Peter Matera on the footy field - DEADLY.

[@chrisserong4966]

His 5 goals from a wing in the 92 GF against the Cats is up there with the best performances you will ever see. Sits alongside Ablett’s effort in 89

[@nathansmart1532]

Spot on that's PhenomenalBairstow was on his Hammer everytime to no Avail,I heard those losses Especially that game scared Bairstow for a while ,He took it to heart as you would being a Sandgroper

[@Gr8mate13]

I still get goosebumps watching him cut through the packs at the speed he could run at , the opposition were just left jaw slackened wondering where the bloody hell he went , what a star

[@charlesbawden5924]

Loved watching him play. Deserved a Brownlow. Superstar. Eagles Legend. 💪🦅

[@nathansmart1532]

He did Deserve a Brownlow,Spot on my Friend.

[@1908fcim]

Best wingman I've ever seen

[@markborich9392]

Greatest Eagle of all time. Superstar!

[@ryanbasilio9548]

What a freak and gem of a player he was. So versatile and very,very fast. 👍🏻😊

[@sotiriosnovatsis4529]

"Matera sets sail for home!" An iconic piece of commentary for a true icon and legend of the game.

[@PeterM1-qx1tz]

As much as I love Judd, Cousins, Kerr and all the other legends who have played for us.. I still think this guy was the best of all. ;]

[@shannonsutherland2450]

Pure skill

[@michaelherman7381]

which one you want me to kick a goal with, left or right? Didn't matter. Matera could kick accurately on both. freak player, one of the few in that era that could match it with the current AFL players today.

[@gooseattack]

Superstar player - as usual completely ignored in "AFL" conversations.

[@wce05308]

Still the VFL

[@jamieoliver325]

GOAT

[@nathansmart1532]

The Most Complete Footballer Period.Nathan Buckley would Struggle to match Matera Magic MAN. 🇩🇪

[@lsddg9283]

the best set sail for home

[@ryanbasilio9548]

Umpires were much more lieninent in those days as far as allowing players to run slighty more than 15m before having to bounce the ball kick. Wouldn't get away with it in 2020.😊👍🏻😬

[@wce05308]

He didn't run too far so 🤷‍♂️

[@hihenry8129]

You must need glasses. Your eyesight is stuffed skittle man. Players today are lazy and don’t like bouncing the ball, it’s a hands off game and it’s boring.

[@aidencardwell8899]

impossibly good. like if you made a wingman in a labratory!

[@glennarcher6]

Greatest eagle of all time?

[@michaelherman7381]

Matera, Judd, Cousins, cox midfield for me. With Kerr rotating through midfield also

[@glennarcher6]

@@michaelherman7381 Cox, Judd, Cuz, Kemp with Matera and Mainwaring on the wings. Kerr part of the rotations

[@BillyBowlster]

Reminds me of steele sidebottom.

[@chemistryset1]

Way quicker, and just better - and I'm a fan of Sidebottom, very good player.
