Tony Evan’s most underrated player in that game. Materia was a god in the game but Evan’s saved the eagles 3 times when the eagles hadn’t found there momentum yet, he in my opinion is the MVP on this day.

I was only 7 when we made the GF for the second time, and you know the boys wanted this one after the heartbreak in '91 against the Hawks. I was surprised with tickets to the game by my mum, which for a kid of 7, was like my birthday, Easter and Christmas coming all on the same day, loved every minute of the day, the noise was deafening, the atmosphere was electric, and the party afterwards. Since then we've won 2 more, I really hope there are many more to come. GO YOU EAGLES!!

I don’t know about being a minority sport in NSW and QLD, have u checked out Sydney and Brisbane fan base ? Rugby is the biggest sport in those two states ! Soccer is really big in very poor countries as you don’t need much equipment or space ! It will definitely grow as Australia has a huge ethnic population! But not to the heights you envisage ! To each his own is the saying and I for one will always be an AFL fan , it’s our game !Who knows what 2050 will bring ? I would say cricket has a lot of followers as well ! America has NFL and Baseball and Canada has ice hockey and those sports will always be huge there !

A quirk of the final six system in 1992 saw West Coast, by virtue of Collingwood losing to St Kilda, progress to the second-semi final against Geelong, instead of the first-semi final against Footscray. Had Collingwood won their week-one match, the Grand Final match up would likely still have been the same (West Coast & Geelong were clearly the best two teams of 1992), but Geelong would have been the team coming off a week's rest. It might have made a difference after half time in this game.

Great performance by the west coast eagles. They were basically the west Australian state of origin team minus a few players. Still they had to win in Melbourne and they did.

The Geelong teams of this era had plenty of stars (Ablett, Hocking, Couch, Hinkley, Stoneham, etc.) but not enough depth. Typically the last 6-8 players picked would be journeymen at best, and not up to the heat of a grand final. West Coast had a few quiet players on the day too - but everyone made a contribution at some point. That - and Matera - proved the difference.

l went to Windy Hill with my Bomber mate late in the 88 Season. Cats were unfavoured and won by ten goals, winning me a healthy bet in the process as l knew what was coming with guys like Ablett, Stoneham, Couchy etc. l put loads more bets on pre-89 including one of "Making the GF" That Hawks side has to be best ever so to push them to kick, and as Dawson above said, with basically half a side... Not sure that Eagles were quite ready in 91 to beat Hawthorn, tho in saying that,...if Sumich kicks that goal at Waverley against Collingwood....hmmm. Cats just never quite had enough to beat Eagles....just so unlucky to run into yet another all-time Great Side. 93 was really the season that got away for Cats....we thrashed ALL of the other finalists over the last six weeks of the season but lost too many games earlier to even make the finals....we'd have won the Flag easily in 93, l have no doubt.

I went to the Rd 6 game where Gazza kicked 14 in a losing side and also the Rd 9 game at KP when Eagles overcame a three-quarter time deficit to out-tough us. Just not quite there,...in all three games. Blew them all away late in the season tho...typical Geelong.

Ablett deliberately elbows Pike in the jaw right at the start of the game [good slow-mo replay @15:05]. Loved Gary Ablett Sr, my favourite ever player. But JESUS he was a sniper. He could fill a highlights reel with his low acts. Raised elbow man-on-man work was his specialty. That's as bad as it gets, Magro on Jesaulenko is the only one I can think of that's worse. Can't believe it hasn't become known as "the infamous" hit on Don Pyke. There was no post-match outrage, I can't even remember it being dwelt on much at all.

They were built to win flags. Also having to compete with a salary cap cheating Carlton in 1995 as well as a Hawthorn side which had reaped all the benefits from an outdated 'zoning' system before the draft came in means this Geelong side will go down as one of the greatest teams not to win a flag in history
@frankmat8 жыл бұрын
+hardtobeat84 Absolute rubbish. The Eagles didn't get concessions... they were actually given restrictions. Ability to only draft players from WA in their first season and that was after the VFL raped the WAFL of 19 players in 4 weeks before the Eagles were allowed to touch them... so the Eagles were left with the dregs. The Eagles were the only AFL team to only have a list of 35 when the rest of the competition had 52. Had to play their home finals they'd earned... in Melbourne in the early years... and had to fight to get home finals played at Subiaco. The reason the Eagles were successful is because AFL teams had not taken recruiting seriously in the early 90s. They paid literally NO attention to scouting young players... and as a result the Eagles were able to pick up players that other AFL clubs ignored. Peter Matera was drafted at #4... behind 3 guys that barely played a game in the AFL in their careers.
