Is that the game where we kicked a monster score against a highly fancied bulldogs side?
Lance kicked 8 or 9 that day too.

I remember that game and Lance going bananas. I looked it up. https://www.blueseum.org/Round+17%2C+1998

We won by 80 points after they beat us at Princes Park by 10 goals early in the season. We were 18.8.116 at half time and up by 58 points! Lance had 21 touches, 7 marks and 8 goals as an 18yr old. We kicked 11 goals in the second quarter and I remember that quarter went for something like 36 minutes? Great memories.

I remember the 2bd quarter now you've jogged my memory. Braddles kicked our 11th from the boundary right on the siren.

I believe Sexton couldve kicked our 30th right on the final siren and missed.

We were well and truly out of finals contention but were going as well as anyone late in the season. We beat crows who were eventual premiers at footy park too. Lance carved them up too. Had that one on vhs and watched it many times. Parko showed some rare after siren emotion and was banging the coaches box window in excitement.

I don't recall going to this game but I know that I did.

When people talk about the game being better now they need to watch the start of this game. Forget the second half, the first half is terrific. The pace of the game and the actual contest is great to watch.

Thanks for posting, kk.
