A couple of things: 1990 was our fourteenth premiership, not fifteenth. The first final against Essendon was the Second Semi Final, not the Prelim. Something else worth mentioning: we held our opposition goalless during the last quarter in our last three finals. Not sure if that's a record of some kind. There was a joke going around at the time: Q: Who kicked 5 goals in the 1990 Grand Final. A: Essendon. I must have watched the match hundreds of times. Never gets old.

My apologies for those two misreading on my end. Keeping all opponents scoreless in each of the final quarters is bizarre! Incredible really…

Another great little infotainment video Anthony. I keep saying this but I really do wonder how you find the time. That 1990 Grand Final is a cherished memory - finally success after years of heartache. Interesting how Gavin Brown got laid out cold but returned in the second half. He wouldn't have been allowed to return under today's rules. Shows how times have changed.

@@PiesFooty I remember being little and going to school after we lost the 1979 GF to Carlton and then again in 1980 to Richmond, and Carlton again in 1981 - tough when you're a little kid...then winning in 1990 !!!! and then in 2010 when we drew with the Saints, I was living in London and I flew to Melbourne for the replay. I cried the whole game with happiness!

Fantastic vid Anthony. i watched the 1990 GF as a13 year old. Daicos senior had a quiet game but his 2 goals were magic. Kicked 97 goals that year from a forward pocket. Nice to see a young dude like yourself delving into the history of our great club.

Kevin Sheedy blew the flag, he wanted the record for most brothers playing in a game so in the final home and away game he rested all his stars to play all 4 Daniher brothers. After the draw with the Eagles we had to play a replay the next week and the Essendon stars found themselves without any match fitness for 3 weeks.
@michaelhehir81167 ай бұрын
@steve8510 Absolutely correct Steve. I’ve always been of the same opinion but the media have never made the connection. Sheedy took his eye off the main prize to play silly games.

Umm, any premiership is amazing but the 1990 season and finals series were out of this world. The past hoodoos, Daicos kicking 97 goals the chance to put the past 32 years behind us. You have to remember the 4 GF losses and the draw were in very recent memory for most supporters. We weren't stacked with absolute top liners, it really was a champion team over a team of champions. The after party of 2010 and 2023 has nothing on 1990; that was insane.
