Sydney vs StKilda Rd 7 1994

[@nate_37]

People often talk about the miracle on grass (brisbane-geelong 2013) but this was just about the same margin with even less time to go. Insane stuff

[@kevinsheldrick917]

Biggest comeback I've seen although I also saw a game that's on video "1986 Escort Cup Glenelg 12.7.79 d Sturt 11.12.78" where Glenelg in the SANFL came back from 59 points down at 3 quarter time and kicked 10 goals in the last quarter (last one after the final siren) and won by a point.

[@kevinsheldrick917]

@MU FC The name of the sport is "Australian Rules Football" and has the highest crowds per capita for any sport (or so is my recollection of a Trivial Pursuit question from many years ago). Calling the sport the "AFL" would be like referring to the sport of soccer as "the Premier League". The popularity of either sport is has very limited relevance (if any) to a discussion on comebacks.

[@bonsouthall960]

I remember watching this live on TV as a kiddo. Unbelievable!

[@megahedgehog8649]

I was therer. It was heartbreaking. The silence in the stands was awful. The worst thing I've ever experienced in football (apart from Fitzroy's last home match).

[@patrick1724]

I had heard about this game and this comeback before. What I didn't know is that the margin was still 42 points with just over 9 minutes left. 😳 How is it even possible to win from there? 😳

[@cckcollins3636]

What a game , i was watching at mums she said may as well turn off the tape , changed her tune , when i said we had won🎉

[@Magpie_Mark92]

This has to be the biggest ever last qaurter comeback ever

[@ryanbasilio9548]

For the 1990's this was a remarkable comeback,most sides wouldn't thrown in the towel.👍🏻😊

[@ryanbasilio9548]

Lockett must've hated the Swans back then. Little did people know that just a few months later,Lockett would sign for Sydney for 1995

[@ryanbasilio9548]

The irony of this match of match is that after this remarkable comeback, St.Kilda lost the next week. 😯

[@megahedgehog8649]

The other irony is that the following year we got Plugger up to Sydney, lol.

[@cmloz]

Tony Lockett: 20 possessions, 12 marks, 11 goals. Wayne Thornborrow's debut

[@adelaideimaging1297]

lol @ 22:17 those old ducks were giving plugger grief all day. nearly copped it

[@CursoryMercenary]

Weak as piss defence from the Swans there, what was Derek Kickett doing back there?

[@riewoldt12]

@collingwoodrules if you mean Peter Caven indeed it was, there are videos of it on youtube

[@manuelmarianosilva]

Surely the swans can't loose it... I had to see it with my own eyes, both the downfall of Sydney and that of Caven's nose too. All of us Sydney supporters were weeping on the stands.

[@charliesharley1]

As McKenna said"I luv him"'no more to be said ......

[@jon50334]

Well we was beaten by lockett

[@mickdooley8994]

The greatest comeback of all time. 47 points down with 16 minutes left easily trumps 69 points down with 55 minutes left (Essendon vs north, 2001).

[@collingwoodrules]

@riewoldt12 ok

[@collingwoodrules]

was this the game where lockett nearly killed that sydney player?

[@millertas]

But Sydney still recruited him.
