Final Minute of Hawthorn v Melbourne 1987 VFL Preliminary Final - WITH COUNTDOWN CLOCK

I was watching this game earlier today, and then I had a thought, what if I added a countdown clock to the end of the game? So that’s what I did. This isn’t what I usually post so let me know if you like it 👍

Demons didn't deserve to win this, they did everything possible to give the game to the hawks

[@gorgen23]

This was actually unbelievable by Hawthorn. This was VFL Park which was huge.

[@Tomdel1965]

Eishold and Grinter were the REAL villains, but Jim became the poster boy for this catastrophe.

How do you have a shot like that, with a lead of more than a goal, with just over a minute left and *lose*? 🤔

[@alicowan2850]

I was at this game. Was devastating as a Melbourne supporter.😢

[@MightyRoos]

Interesting thing is Melbourne were in the lead. Why didn’t they play possession football? But there were bad misses by Melbourne.

Everyone was going for Melbourne, they just sneaked into the elimination final and nearly made the grand final.

This just goes to show how capable human beings are at doing things

Bucky was one of the greatest players ever! A freak of talent! Up forward in the middle anywhere! Just ask Greg Williams in his interview Mike Sheehan when Bucky gave him a hiding in the midfield! Yeah he was a special player! And Greg Williams 2 brownlows is someone you listen to! He mentioned one other player Gaza snr! The greatest footballer to put on a boot! Lucky they put Bucky down forward for the last quarter! 2 goals in under a minute! 35 meters out after siren to get into granny! That's the tuffest kick in history of football! Look at the Melbourne player a minute before under less pressure from 5 meters out! Mist! Garry buckanarra a true champion! Best player in 80s for me without question!! And one of the greatest of all time!! He helped build the 2008 side hodgy ruffy Cyril buddy all thanks to Bucky and Schwab !

I really love the commentary

[@jamieb8112]

Melbourne snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.

The sun even shines on a dog's ass some days.

[@joefitzpatrick863]

Plus it gets the countdown clock wrong. In those days, the clock didn't stop when a behind was scored.

[@claytonbjork5687]

Melbourne absolutely stuffed it...very sad

[@JohnJohn-zn8ib]

Have seen so many players go over the mark when someone is getting ready to take a kick and no penalty today. Tough one.
