Storm v Dragons | 1999 Grand Final | Full Match Replay | NRL

[@StonedGossard_]

the crowd truly was and still is something to behold, amazing stuff

[@rendlebury1520]

This was my first NRL Grand Final I remember watching it with my Grandad, Uncle Michael and Dad from Grandads lounge room Mundine put on a show I remember it well I was 9 at the time

[@Sportymale]

My first ever grand final - sat in the stands that are no longer there. Never missed a Melbourne premiership, but this will always be special as it was the first.

[@Richest-l3s]

@J G shut up

[@chrishughes1057]

I was above the try line on the side where the penalty try was

[@danielstockley5631]

Mine too. I remember looking at the crowd trying to comprehend it being nearly 3 x my home town population lol. Remember when the jet swooped through the stadium without warning?

[@moronicdooshbaggery756]

What a game. this game was such a high paced affair. Full of legends. McGregor was such a beast.

[@kiwimondo21]

Love my Storm boys! Back then and now in 2023. Go Storm ⚡️

That has to be one of the all time greatest comebacks of all time.!! Lead by.the forwards in the second half by Chief Tawera Nikau, Rodney Howe, Paul Marquet, Roarty, Matt Rua, Bowden... They all stood proud. What a game.! Record crowd, controversial finish that made it the most memorable final ever.!! Well done Melbourne Storm.!!

[@heyheyhey0h]

Looking at the Dragons team today and it is still unreal to think that they didn’t win, unbelievable players for them.

[@peterkehoe1984]

They somewhat overachieved in 1999 though. They beat minor premiers Cronulla after coming back from an 8-0 defecit at the break to win thanks largely in part from an individual brilliance from Mundine. Then they just ran out of gas toward the end of the GF as a result.

[@isaacioane7806]

I’m here in 2020 watching my favourite team win their first grand final and I think that this is where Melbourne Storm began their domination in the nrl till this day

[@Demonico-j7x]

They had a few dud years in 2001-2002. 2006 was when the juggernaut began.

[@koungra]

Keep them coming please! Would love the 1995 GF on here :)

[@gordonwalker6669]

Yea the same can only find highlights

[@russell3436]

This was meant to be the Sharks year, they dominated the 99 season but choked against St. George in the Prelim, I guarantee you if they made the GF instead of St. George they would’ve won it.

On what video Time that scene appeared?

[@BDogs10]

First time I’ve set eyes on this since 99’. & Man a Grand Final of the ages!. Feel sorry for the StG Players retiring & without a P’ship😢, what a Team. *Ainscough aside, Melbs 2nd half momentum swing & enthusiasm hard to contain.

[@emanx2600]

Marcus Bai 🇵🇬🔥👍💯

[@jimmaloney1121]

I came here from the St. Helens "Wide to West" video. Mike Stephenson (Stevo) mentioned that Wide to West reminded him of the Melbourne-St. George Grand Final. So I had to see what all the excitement was about!

[@joshlock4627]

In the 1990’s I was a lower grader and knew the players well enough About 11pm that night , I sat with Jamie A on the seats outside the leagues club , he was distraught , like he was mourning . I looked at him and said “You win as a team and lose as a team “. He looked at me and smiled Wearing our player jackets, we both removed our jackets and kept smiling A lot of players were angry and finger pointing - choc copped a lot blame, correctly

[@HSimon1981]

I still believe to this day that the last try was without doubt a penalty try and Ainscough should have been sin binned

[@Randomgold88]

You can't have both. Its either a try or a sin bin.

[@zaiahlaczik]

russell bawden is my coach for brothers

[@nik3489]

Re watching it Mundine was hit high on the head in the act of scoring a try and made him drop the ball. Should’ve been a penalty try. Melbourne also scored a try with a forward pass by Geyer and then scored another one after they blatantly head highed Wishart to regain the ball from the kick off after the Dragons try. The ref was on their side that day.

[@BronsonLivesHere209]

And I used to think that Melbourne players came from Melbourne. Lol!

[@godemperorofmankind3.091]

some do. especially the young players coming up from second grade

[@drcrisp8538]

Idk man, most Melbournians watch AFL, so I could say I used to think that Sydney Swans players were from Sydney

[@dondgamer]

Was this the first penalty try ever given? Even the commentator's got confused over the difference between a penalty try and an 8 point try.

[@grahamv1068]

Did anyone notice that Melbourne didn't run out the last play? Would have been interesting if st george had ran off with that ball and scored

21 minutes a clear forward pass by the dragons ruled a knock on by Melbourne. Typical pro Sydney biased call. 21 years on nothing's changed.
