Well played Gf though.

[mashfan72]

@OneManShow1234 at least until 1998...

[sikokiller12]

wow even back then with a different side St Kilda still choked in the grand final lol

[TheGoosebumpsTV]

what a great team!!

[alijake555]

haha the commentators are speechless

[pcorf]

This is the day I will remember for the rest of my life! - Amazing moment.

[mashfan72]

@pcorf Never a dull moment when the Saints lose. The tears from the outer could fill Maroondah Dam.

[LSULLY98]

crows rock.

[presidentelliot]

The "aints"

[VidsFromTheBasement]

no way it would, CROWS(L)

[AdelaideCrows4Ever]

I remember watching this when i was 5 years old, this was when i first started watching footy and supporting the Crows. the boys played played bloody well. Macca best on ground, and Jarman was an absolute gun the memories still remain today! Then it was all so sweet when the siren sounded and we were the first club to win back to back in the AFL in 98'!!

'I think the lid is about to be blown off the city of Adelaide'

And indeed it was -- we went nuts!

[tombell12]

I never fully got into supporting the Crows until 1998 so to watch this here on Youtube is epic win :-D

[SaintTony1968]

St Kilda FC lets never forget 1971 1997

 Make 2009 OURS

[Dommbiscuit95]

No offence i rly think that saints should win tho i think that either dogs or cats wuld win. Still wuld be happy if saint's win tho just an opinion. Im a swans fan

[Paperbagman555]

Haha, Same I'm a swans fan! But i think the Saints should win cause they've only ever won 1 premiership in like 1958 or something and they were undefeated until round 20.... Sad that the swans are out of the finals this year :(

[Dommbiscuit95]

i kno i sad dat i wuld be happy if saints win tho i thnk dat cats or dogs wuld win my opinion. amd dogs also hv 1 premioership in 1954, saints 1966

[damadarr]

LOLOLOL never forget 2009 too? bl chaps

[plusplusplusplusp]

@damadarr

Stupid Collingwood. They deserved to get thrashed by the Cats afterwards.

[Chic1110]

@plusplusplusplusp Your wish came true today! (Grand Final 2011)

[plusplusplusplusp]

@Chic1110

I watched that. Great game! Plus Collingwood lost, which was a bonus.

[Jay4P]

@SaintTony1968 fail

[whoopsman]

What were Darren Jarman's stats before halftime?

[tracid303]

if the saint and dockers were ever in a grand final.... it would be a draw!

[Murraj1966]

Yeah cos that makes alot of sense. Idiot.

[mrfriendlyguy]

The wise men of Melbourne thought we couldn't win. But Blight pulled off some of the best moves on the day. David Pittman shut down Stewie Lowe while Darren Jarman to full forward gave us the goal kicking power to win. Andrew Macleod was simply amazing and deserved the Norm Smith medal. It was a good day to be a crow supporter.

Thanks for the upload and the memories.

[burr1919]

It's not generally known but Neil Craig was the man behind the Jarman to full forward decision. An inspired decision; I only wish I was old enough to really appreciate that 97 flag :(

[davovcmc]

very good game, st kilda were favourites by miles!

[MHJanson]

ADEL 19.11 (Jarman 6, Ellen 5, Bond 4, Caven, Goodwin, Rintoul, Smart) def ST.K 13.16 (Hall 3, Heatley 3, Loewe 2, Burke, Harvey, Jones, Peckett, Winmar)

[sossyzaia]

brisbane of 01-03 would kill geelong's side at the moment

[Flynnster93]

I think that honour would go to the Collingwoood of 1927-1930 or the Melbourne of 1955-1960.

[gregnewyears]

what about the hawks of the late 70s to early 90s,the tigers of the late 60s and early 70s,the blues of the late 60s and early 70s and late 70s and early 80s?

[l7ebels]

And Essendons 2000 side wld smash any brisbane side

[scotthendo]

@sossyzaia Didn't port beat them in a GF? Brisbane = no chance

[VioIentGoIdFish]

@sossyzaia whats brisbane or geelong got to do with this..

[H3dgie]

I miss Darren Jarmin,what a bloody legend.

[MrOzanachronism]

@H3dgie Have you seen him lately? He's got a bit of a gut on him now.

[whaledoger93]

crows are awesome personally i think they have a good chance for this years grand final.

[H3dgie]

I'm a crows fan, but cmon mate, that's retarded. Geelong are going to steamroll everyone.

This Geelong side V the Lion 3peat side would have been an awesome game.

[roomcleod2332]

he said grand final not premiers though. I would've thought they were a good chance but like always they fucked up. Go Cats, Dogs and Saints. Don't care who wins outta those three as long as it aint Hawthorn.

[H3dgie]

Yeah, spose I can let him off for that.

Although, it should be noted that the Crows beat bugger all good sides...all year. I can't remember the last top 8 side they beat, bar the Bulldogs in the final round - a struggling Bulldogs who lost something like 7-9. I never expected them to get past Collingwood.

[roomcleod2332]

Yeah i never expected them to get past Collingwood either. Of the seven other teams to make the finals they beat the Bulldogs, Swans and Kangas and i think that was it.
