This is a good thread. Trying to find that Monday night game from the 90’s when we rolled the Eagles at their best.
Don't remember that one, but this is a obvious favorite. Thrashing North early 1995 at the G.

I had just met my now wife and we were up in Brisbane. I had to listen to it on ABC news radio in the car-she thought I was mad.

The link works.

Was that the one an 18-year-old Joel Bowden kicked 4 in a quarter and broke his collarbone?

If you want some non-Richmond games to watch, I recommend:

1970 Grand Final (Collingwood lost)
1977 Grand Final (Collingwood lost)
1979 Grand Final (Collingwood lost)
1981 Grand Final (Collingwood lost)
2002 Grand Final (Collingwood lost)
2003 Grand Final (Collingwood lost)
2011 Grand Final (Collingwood lost)
2018 Grand Final (Collingwood lost)

If you listen very closely near the end of third quarter with about 50sec to go, you can hear the exact moment our dynasty started.
Some really interesting comments in the call, looking back.

- commentators thought Geelong could absorb what Richmond threw at them and overpower us
- AFL would really want a Richmond win and successful finals series
- when Tiges up and about the city feels different, with respect to Pies and Blues fans
- Parkin apologising, didn’t realise until that game how good Prestia was

Dustin Martin Fans on YouTube for those without Kayo/Foxtel. Good selection.

Tonight’s best live viewing is the women’s test v India or maybe a replay of the Sandown 500 or hang on… the Big Bore game between somebody in pink and somebody else in blue.

The great Australian Sporting Abyss. Hurry up March.

You can't remember Bowdens 1st half? James Hird clone we all thought but after time he dislocated his shoulder and never went for a hard ball ever again.

I loved the fact that in a half of football, we kept the vaunted Eagles to 1 goal. And Commetti saying at half time that the Eagles were no sure thing coming in to the match.

That was also the season where the Lions had 18 more scoring shots than us in a game and won by 18 points.
