Hungry's seventh goal and celebrations in the 1980 premiership over the Pies gets my vote.

Have had to thrive on that memory for 28 years now.

A the time was only 18 and had already seen five tiger premierships and thought they would be regular happening.

Aaaah .....maturity is so sobering
 
I was only a young lad at the time, but the old man says Fowler's hit on Nicholls in 1973 was one of the greatest moments of his life...so that gets my vote.
 
The quarter time brawl in 90 for mine.

Was the last real brawl for all we had (as in real punches being thrown left right and centre) and was exciting, gave a real edge to the game and changed the face of it.
 
It's a shame Bartlett's goal in 1980 isn't included - ably shepherded by Darryl Freame.

I reckon Balme clocking Southby is the one for me. It's just such menacing footage. My Dad reckons it where the term "to clock someone" came from (or at least was best ever illustrated).

I'm the other person who voted for that one. Those were the days.
 
The best moment for me was seeing KB dodge and baulk around Magro making him look like a lame goose. But my favourite would be Monteeth hoisting the cup....our last

My highlight as well. KB had the ball on a string that day. Nothing like putting the 1980 grand final DVD on and have a few beers

Prefer to call it our "most recent" .... not "last" :-\
