That St Kilda vs Geelong game is still the best game I've ever seen. Both teams went into the game 13-0 and the hype was amazing. But the game actually exceeded expectations. I'm not sure we'll ever see that again.
yeah it should be number 1 or 2. Rarely does anything live up to hype like that. But it did and some. Also the highest ever crowd at docklands aswell. Definitely not upset that jason was number 1 though
Still send shivers down spine... Brave man he was a very emotional game... No 7 for me with Bulldogs being the only team to beat Essendon in the home and away season...
Soccer is the greatest sport on Earth and is massive in over 240 countries. Every country on Earth loves Soccer. Afl is only big and relevant in 4 Australian states. Its a minority sport in Qld, NSW and ACT. Soccer will be the number 1 sport in Australia by 2050 and every country on Earth by 2100 ifzsf
Yeah, what a great memory beating up on the first year Gold Coast Suns. Who makes these videos? You stuffed up the aspect ratio on the Kevin Sheedy throat slash clip as well.
Jonathan Brown Round 6, 2005, v Essendon. First game back from suspension absolutely dominated the game after having 3 different opponents he ended up with 20 disposals & 8 goals 2 behinds. Absolute pleasure to watch that live.
Damn Docklands really be like the opposite of fine wine, it was sooooo good when it was young and just gets worse as the 2010s went on. So much from here is pre-2010 and that proves it. That Jason McCartney game emotional stuff. What a great moment. Fairytales DO come true!
Troy Schwarze's winning goal in 2004 has to be in there surely? The crowd reaction to that was unlike anything I've seen at the venue, not to mention the drama
70s, 80s, 90s were the golden era, people forget Leigh Matthews kicked 915 goals as a ruck rover so he arguably is the best goal kicker as well as player ever
Didn't even know the 2007 Elimination Final with Hawthorn and Adelaide was played here. The roof being open gave it a better atmosphere and viewing experience.
I’d put St Kilda/Geelong at no. 2 behind McCartney. The hype was incredible, they were both undefeated and it lived up to expectations and then some. Absolute epic.
i think it was because its such an odd player to kick 8. He only played 60 odd games and didn't even crack 100 career goals, yet achieved something only the very best key forwards have achieved over the past 10 years.
Some other memorable moments: * Essendon vs Port Adelaide, 2000 * Fremantle's first win of the 2001 season vs Hawthorn * St Kilda vs Brisbane Lions, 2003 * Fraser Gehrig's nine vs the Kangaroos in 2003 * Matthew Lloyd's ten (I think it was) vs the Bulldogs in 2003 * Gehrig's seven (or eight) in his 200th game in 2005 * Milne's 11 vs the Brisbane Lions in 2005 * Matthew Lloyd's eight vs Sydney in round 1 2006 * The Koschitzke-Giansiracusa head clash in round 6 2006 * That infamous Richmond vs Adelaide game in round 8 2006 * Cyril Rioli's goal of the year in 2009 * Nick Riewoldt's miss after the siren vs Essendon in 2009 * Adam Goodes' miss after the siren vs Essendon in 2011 * Devon Smith's winning goal on the run vs Western Bulldogs in 2014 * Buddy's two goals vs the Bulldogs in 2017 * St Kilda ambush vs Richmond in 2017 * Roughy's final match in 2019
Notice how the first ever game at this stadium was on a Friday Night in prime time. While Optus Stadium first game was in junk time on a Sunday arvo... #VicBias
Riccardi...was it touched....??? Still to this day, even with multiple replays I see no evidence or fight to express the touch of the ball nonsense. Great after the siren win...
10:02 even though Geelong lost, I reckon that is by far the best game ever played at Docklands. I was one of those 54,444 fans and dad and I could only get standing room tickets. The hype leading up to it in 2009 was tremendous with both teams having recorded 13 wins each and going into the match undefeated. There were talks between the venue and the AFL to move the game to the MCG because of the increased interest and expected attendance, but Etihad Stadium refused to give it up. So they came up with a compromise. The game was scheduled for 2:10pm on a Sunday afternoon. At the time, all matches scheduled for that time slot were broadcast on Channel 7 on a one-hour delay starting at around 3:10pm leading into the 6pm news (almost all matches on free to air at the time were a delayed broadcast). Since the match was a rare sellout, the AFL decided to change the start time of the match to 3:10pm so that it would be shown live on Channel 7. The move proved so successful that when the new broadcast deal for 2012 was done, the AFL decided to permanently change 2:10pm Sunday games to 3:20pm. That game at Docklands in 2009 certainly kickstarted a change to AFL broadcasting for the better.
I would have thought that the atrocious playing condition of the stadium, so bad it caused serious injuries, would be something the AFL would want us all to forget.
Up there Kazaylee, In there n fight, Up there n at em, Show all your might, Up there Kazaylee, Dont let em in, Fly like an Eagle, We're out there to win!! 🏉👊
Happy with 1 and 2 but some of these were way off the mark.Surely Buddy kicking 7 and winning a final single handedly is bigger than Barry Hall putting a headlock on someone lol Thought Moorecroft would be higher also.Would have thought top 4 at least for that mark.How Reimers gets a gig is beyond me also lol
@@benrush7090 Even an Bombers myself I would say that Geelong team was better. 2000 in general was a very weak season in terms of overall quality. That Geelong team faced much greater quality of opposition during their dominant era. Same with the 3 peat Brisbane Lions before them and even the 3 peat Hawthorn side of 2013-2015. Its really no coincidence at all we weren't as good the following season despite finishing top of the ladder and couldn't retain the flag. Most opposition simply got better and it showed in a lot of matches. If anything that Bombers side is slightly overrated kind of like the invincible Arsenal team of the 03-04 season or the current Liverpool side leading the Premier League by a whopping 25 points. Its always important to look at context when analysing and judging these things.
That St Kilda vs Geelong game is still the best game I've ever seen. Both teams went into the game 13-0 and the hype was amazing. But the game actually exceeded expectations. I'm not sure we'll ever see that again.
Still remember it. I still love Essendon comeback too from 2001 vs North. 69 points 😳
yeah it should be number 1 or 2. Rarely does anything live up to hype like that. But it did and some. Also the highest ever crowd at docklands aswell.
Definitely not upset that jason was number 1 though
1989 grand final wasn't bad
1994 vic vs sa
best game by a mile.
@@TheDuffcat I mean...we all remember Jason and what he went through. I found it underwhelming that it was no.1 though
#1 is a fantastic choice.
hard facts💙🤍

Number 1 is such a great ending to his footy story
It really is
McCartney's comeback is the most courageous thing that has ever happened on a football field.
“That’s enough for me, mate”
I was not expecting to come across the name Kyle Reimers here.
I know right
I was quite happy not remembering that clown
Thought the game was more remembered for the fact that Essendon kicked like 94 points or something in the first qtr
Yeah, what a great memory beating up on the first year Gold Coast Suns. Who makes these videos? You stuffed up the aspect ratio on the Kevin Sheedy throat slash clip as well.
Sean O'reilly whats si bad about reimers?
Jonathan Brown Round 6, 2005, v Essendon. First game back from suspension absolutely dominated the game after having 3 different opponents he ended up with 20 disposals & 8 goals 2 behinds. Absolute pleasure to watch that live.
As a bulldogs supporter I saw a few of these moments so I saw moorcroft's mark live what a joke it's 11 easy top 3 moments ever at the dome
Saints vs Geelong game should have been top 3. One of the best games of all time easy
#1 was absolutely the best choice, glad that absolute hero got to go out on a great note.
(moorcroft's mark should've been way higher tho)
Moorcroft at 11 is a disgrace.
Should be top 3 easily.
Definitely the best midget taking a hanger on the back of another midget moment
Agreed! Don’t see many ad good as that nowadays
Should be #1
Lochie The puppy maybe number 2 or 3 but not number 1. That was human triumph there but a disgrace how low Moorcroft was in the list.
I miss the times when Richmond would get flogged
Braden Ferris They got flogged by the saints in 2017 by 64 points and they still won the cup that year 🤮
Charlie I mean they got flogged by the cats last Year and still won the flag
Braden Ferris haha
Me too
Braden Ferris that was at the MCG and u won’t see Richmond loose by more than 50 points for 10 years now
5:15 that umpire screamed play on like his life depended on it lmao
Damn Docklands really be like the opposite of fine wine, it was sooooo good when it was young and just gets worse as the 2010s went on. So much from here is pre-2010 and that proves it. That Jason McCartney game emotional stuff. What a great moment. Fairytales DO come true!
2:48 you can see a Suns supporter cheer when he kicked the goal.
Great sportsmanship
More like he was attempting to hit the ball with his flag.
Troy Schwarze's winning goal in 2004 has to be in there surely? The crowd reaction to that was unlike anything I've seen at the venue, not to mention the drama
Agreed! - I was there that night and I've never seen such a one sided St Kilda crowd collectively loose their sh#t.
9:24 Sheedy scanning the field like a hawk, saying to himself " OK, where the f%#k is he..."
Footy was just better in the 2000s.
Aaron... And 90s
I think you mean 90's
70s, 80s, 90s were the golden era, people forget Leigh Matthews kicked 915 goals as a ruck rover so he arguably is the best goal kicker as well as player ever
Didn't even know the 2007 Elimination Final with Hawthorn and Adelaide was played here. The roof being open gave it a better atmosphere and viewing experience.
I’d put St Kilda/Geelong at no. 2 behind McCartney.

Kyle reimers kicking 8 makes it but Stephen Milne kicking 11 doesn’t??
Must be a bombers fan who made this video. Reimers 8 not even in the top 100.
The probably should've called it the highest first quarter in history or something else
swamistyle AFL posted this vid lol
I was surprised by that too. Milne was in unbelievable form that night. Every touch was gold.
i think it was because its such an odd player to kick 8. He only played 60 odd games and didn't even crack 100 career goals, yet achieved something only the very best key forwards have achieved over the past 10 years.
Lecca’s moment was the best
Top 2 picks are perfect, two incredible moments in AFL history
I still get goosebumps when Jason McCartney kicks his goal :)
Some other memorable moments:
* Essendon vs Port Adelaide, 2000
* Fremantle's first win of the 2001 season vs Hawthorn
* St Kilda vs Brisbane Lions, 2003
* Fraser Gehrig's nine vs the Kangaroos in 2003
* Matthew Lloyd's ten (I think it was) vs the Bulldogs in 2003
* Gehrig's seven (or eight) in his 200th game in 2005
* Milne's 11 vs the Brisbane Lions in 2005
* Matthew Lloyd's eight vs Sydney in round 1 2006
* The Koschitzke-Giansiracusa head clash in round 6 2006
* That infamous Richmond vs Adelaide game in round 8 2006
* Cyril Rioli's goal of the year in 2009
* Nick Riewoldt's miss after the siren vs Essendon in 2009
* Adam Goodes' miss after the siren vs Essendon in 2011
* Devon Smith's winning goal on the run vs Western Bulldogs in 2014
* Buddy's two goals vs the Bulldogs in 2017
* St Kilda ambush vs Richmond in 2017
* Roughy's final match in 2019
Clint Bizzell nearly winning it from 70 out on the run in 2000
Bulldogs/Kangaroos 46 goal game in 2003
Happy 20th Birthday Docklands Stadium
Judds goal vs Geelong 2011
Mcleods goal vs Collingwood 2005
Collingwoods 4th quarter blitz vs adelaide 2011
nm vs gee 2000
bizzells torp that almost drew the game.
It's so bad when the play here with e roof open and the Suns out so you can't see anything
I love the game
Saints 57 point comeback? May be biased as a saints supporter though
Jason The Knighthog as a western bulldogs fan, I believe it should be on the list
The crows had a decent comeback against the Roos aswell
As an essendon fan it should be a straight swap for the remiers one I have no idea why that was put on the list.
@@jamiealder-martin9994 probably the best comeback with 4 minutes to go.
The north players shoulder popped out when swallow pulled Judd away from the arm while he was holding onto it
Notice how the first ever game at this stadium was on a Friday Night in prime time. While Optus Stadium first game was in junk time on a Sunday arvo... #VicBias
West Walk99 cos time differences and all on a Friday night don’t account for anything right? 🤦🏼♂️ ..... strange breed in WA
It was actually a Thursday Night
@@marcclemente9335 but west coast has had Friday night games at home before?
Even as a Richmond supporter, I agree with number 1
Same here, that moment was bigger than a game of footy
The games there are always congested
Riccardi...was it touched....???
Still to this day, even with multiple replays I see no evidence or fight to express the touch of the ball nonsense. Great after the siren win...
Buddy with the magical one hundred doesn't seem like much now lol. He beat it ten fold
Wow docklands as more moments than my team an Adelaide supporter

*Charges at full speed*
Carey: Y'all hear sum?
Where was Roughead 7 goals in his final game against goldcoast?
More than a game
Lol, I had no idea what the North theme song sounded like until this video
Some excellent moments there best sport in Australia
I would have thought that the atrocious playing condition of the stadium, so bad it caused serious injuries, would be something the AFL would want us all to forget.
LeCras bagging 12!
What about the game where the scoreboard was on fire?
i miss the days when afl had high scoring games, last year barely anyone got to 100
Tony L Every round last year there was at least one game that a team scored over 100 or more points
@@CharlieAUS im a sports better and they're were less than 15 games last season that both teams scored over 90!
Tony L good, less blowouts of games.
Tony L you never said both teams
@@CharlieAUS well thats what i meant
1:48 that is the MCG!
It’s not. MCG bays aren’t twice as big. Dock lands has the boxes as well on the east wing.
It's the Docklands
lol you put buddys ton but not Clarkson flooding the backline when fev was about to get his lovely
is number 16 at the mcg??
Nope.
Awesome!
Glad brown is better now
I MIGHT HAVE LOST THE CAR hahaahh!
Moorcrofts mark is the greatest of all time and should be 1 and I go for carlton
Up there Kazaylee,
In there n fight,
Up there n at em,

Up there Kazaylee,
Dont let em in,
Fly like an Eagle,
We're out there to win!! 🏉👊
Akermanis! Akermanis! On to the left boot!!!
0:20 what a siren
I’m a doggies supporter. That 2000 win against bombers was a shocking display of flooding lol. Terrible game to watch
Where is roughy's last game?
Moorcroft with arguably the greatest mark of all time at #11?
I love how the refs I’m assuming just shoot finger guns when someone scores lol
20 years, countless unnecessary injuries and still yet to grow a blade of grass.
7:51 in 2020 this would've been reviewed. Miss the days where the umpires just backed themselves...
Jason McCartney Takes The Cake!
How long has it been since there was a really big blockbuster game at Docklands?
i thought Richmond vs Sydney in 2018 had that feel.
If you listen closely you can hear Nathan Brown's leg breaking.
Pity the AFL doesn’t think the first ever Pride Match, played at this venue deserved an entry
It doesn't thats nothing memo
Really? Saints get mentioned once?
Milne would still hold the goals record there too I think.
IKR! - We're Milne's 11 goal blitz?
How can you think that eleven goals is the record there when this very video included someone kicking a dozen?
I miss steven Quartermaine’s commentary
Reimers’ 8 goals in a 30+ goal team performance shouldn’t be in here. It’s the equivalent of 4 goals in a team’s 15 goal effort.
Who else misses footy?
Richmond upset win over adeliade 2006
So Milne kicking 11 goals doesnt rate a mention Wow just wow
Lecras kicked 12 weren't you watching?
The greatest mark of all time in at 11?
Hardly
What about Collingwood bagging 18 goals in a half
If Gary moorecroft isn’t in here I swear to god
Edit:
Oh thank god i swear if he wasnt in there my god I’d be furious
Hard hit
jared petrenko goal vs north melbourne?
Marc LeDozen makes an appearance! Bonjour Monsieur
the irony is lewis is the only one who doesnt remember number 20
How does a dud in Kyle Reimers kicking 8 goals of 190 points against the Gold Coast make this? what a joke
Reimers show? Lmfao
it should have been named "essendon kicks 15 goals straight"
Carey is just too good for North Melbourne
Where are the Magpies’ plays?
At the MCG
Happy with 1 and 2 but some of these were way off the mark.Surely Buddy kicking 7 and winning a final single handedly is bigger than Barry Hall putting a headlock on someone lol Thought Moorecroft would be higher also.Would have thought top 4 at least for that mark.How Reimers gets a gig is beyond me also lol
the telstra dome
Who is Reimers?
No nick Davis?
That was at the SCG, not Docklands
I can think of plenty of sports that take more courage to play than AFL.
No one said it was the most courageous sport

@@trolliixz9595 he was pushing his arm back as it was extended which causes a lot of pain in your shoulders and feels like it'll dislocate your arm

@@DaNooch669 It shouldn't be illegal if we can do a speckie which hurts more imo then we should be able to do a chickenwing

Brad Johnson wasn’t commentating
It was Dennis
Is docklands stadium now marvel stadium?
Yas
Maybe Lecras 12 goals could be 4th or lower
NO ADELAIDE COMEBACK V ROOS?? RIDICULOUS DECISION
