WIGGINS KICKING 4 IN HIS 100TH GAME IN OUR VICTORY AGAINST THE BULLDOGS!

& I got to meet dane that day. But forgot to mention anything to him about Matt Maguire, so I can't include it in my highlights...

I have 2 main highlights.

Bryce Gibbs' growth into a senior AFL footballer has been a true pleasure to watch.

And of course, Chris Judds addition to the playing group has been immense.

Sticking it up all the doubters who were loving the possibility that we would set the records for worst defence and 15 straight losses. Round 4 was sweet, especially for the look on Eddie's face.

The last quarter of Rd 12 against Collingwood was spectacular.

Consistent performances, rarely getting blown away.
Development of players - the class of 2006 is looking sweet especially.
WIGGINS
Jamison is my favourite player - very rarely beaten on the lead, and if he is it's a monty he won't be next time.
Kreuzer was everything we hoped for plus

Hell, the whole season in comparison to the last 5 years was great. Problem now becomes going on with it.

Lots of great highlights for the year - really too many to mention, although the two wins against Collingwood were very special.

One that is near the very top is Shaun Grigg. When Grigg was recruited I was astounded...and thought all last year and this pre-season that this kid just didn't have it in him and didn't have a footy brain.

What I saw in the second half of the year has proved me so very wrong and I'm pretty happy about that! Grigg is a footballer and he moves really well also. He's learning quickly and the message is sinking in.

In no particular order -
JUDD
Ratts
Kreuzer
Four more wins!!!
No Pagan!
We were in the 8 twice!
A great outlook toward the future
Fev kicked 99 goals
No -Tanking- Talk
The top draft picks doing very well, thank you very much
Being able to laugh at at least five other teams!
Some great wins

Bryce Gibbs living up to his pre drafting reputation and becoming an A grader...proving my doubts on him wrong.

Fev nearly pissing his career away and then applying himself to become the best FF in the comp...

Others like Murphy, Jamison, Kruezer etc becoming part of the building blocks for the next premiership...

Rd 4 vs collingwood. The game where we were going to break the record for most losses, against our enemies.

+ the look on eddie's face at the end of that game! ... i still think he cried himself to sleep that night
