      @MAN UTD yeah we’re talking about real football here, Australian rules, where the players can handle contact and real tackles and don’t need to dive and pretend they’ve been shot to try and get a free kick. Aussie Rules > soccer

    Tony Modra was one of those amazing players for Adelaide who was a super power full forward who could compete against the best for the goal kicking among Ablett, Dunstal and Lockett.
    Sadly for Modra, the knee injury of 1997 interrupted his career to the point where he missed out on 2 of the Crows premierships.
    During the years 1993 and 1994 were Tony Modra's best years and it is easy to see why many Crows fans remember him because he was just that good of a forward.

    I kinda wished that the 1994 State of Origin game between South Australia and Victoria was available on that State of Origin Collection DVD that was released back a few years ago.
    It was perhaps one of the last great State of Origin clashes that went right down to the wire.
    Ablett was brilliant and he could have won the game for Victoria if only he didn't give away that free kick in the final minute.

    Final 8 yes but it was made better from 2000 onwards.
    The Final 8 really made the finals really interesting and while it was imperfect during the mid to late 90s, thankfully it was improved and we don't have qualifying finals between the 3 to 6 teams that ended up being worthless games if the 7th or 8th team couldn't defeat the 1st and 2nd teams anymore.
    If there was one change that should have happened back then, that was the change to the final system that should have been fixed at the start.
    Other than that, we had some amazing finals during 1994 despite the fact that the Grand Final was so disappointingly one sided.

    It was after Round 1 and Geelong's 65pt loss to Melbourne that coach Malcolm Blight famously said " It's not often you see the winner of the marathon leading out of the stadium". A Grand Final appearance suggested he was right !!

      Would have been better had Geelong not made it that year. Glen Jakovich said they were watching the North V Geelong prelim on tv and as soon as Ablett took that mark before the siren he knew they would beat Geelong in the grand final by over 10 goals. He was thinking he was going to go head to head with Carey and knew when Geelong scraped in that they were cooked and they had their measure.

    • @frankmat
      @frankmat 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      97 and 98 were asterisk Premierships. The AFL stuffed up the finals format in those years. Any other year and Adelaide would never have made either grand final in 97 and 98. After Adelaide managed to win back to back after finishing 4th and 5th and only winning 13 games both seasons... it forced the AFL to change the finals format so we would never again have a mediocre team winning a flag.

    • @mabiorcholappreciationpage
      @mabiorcholappreciationpage 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@frankmat I hate going in to bat for the Crows, but '97 doesn't have an asterisk and wasn't a reason as to why the AFL changed the finals format. Crows didn't drop a finals match in '97, so that flag is perfectly legitimate (although they really lucked out in the prelim and Grand Final). '98 has one of the biggest asterisks ever next to it, however. Crows get thumped by the Dees, but the finals system's flaw gives them a lifeline. Crows use that undeserved lifeline to scrape past the Swans, thump the Dogs and then pull another fluke flag out of their arses after North failed to seal the premiership the 2nd quarter (2.11 - 23 in the 2nd quarter from North). Adelaide 1998 Premiers* (* = helped by dodgy finals system and stolen from North)

      @@mabiorcholappreciationpage I'm sorry but '97 has a very big asterisk. The Cats finished 2nd and found themselves travelling to Adelaide in the second week of the finals to play a lower placed side. That has never happened since (with the exception of the 1 preliminary final must be played at the MCG debacle).

      @@carncats07 the top 8 system was very different back then and Geelong's situation makes sense when you know how that system worked. Geelong being the highest ranked losing team from week 1 were only entitled to an away spot in a semi final, whilst Adelaide being the 3rd ranked winning team were rewarded with a home semi final. If Geelong had a defender that could blanket Wayne Carey then they most likely wouldn't have ever had to worry about travelling to Adelaide

    One can only ponder how different the final series would have been that year had Mick McGuane held that mark. West Coast certainly wouldn't have had it as easy as they did playing 8th then 7th on the ladder at their home ground before the Grand final. And Carlton should have been swabbed after the final series for taking non-performance enhancing drugs. They beat the Eagles by 11 goals two weeks before the final series!

I never suggested that Eagles side was unbeatable, no team ever is, but the reality is statistically WC won more games than anyone in the 1990s, and in the first half of the decade, before the travel, the injuries and age caught up with them, they were at a level probably even beyond the likes of the Lions and Hawk threepeat sides. Can you imagine an interstate side or anyone for that matter winning the first 16 on the trot like the Eagles did in 91?
