Peter Matera was the greatest player never the win a Brownlow medal, the year he was runner up or 3rd or what ever it was , he should have shit it in. In amongst to team that was virtually a State team he was a fucking superstar. To this day there has never been any one like it. The only other that has come close incredibly is Chris Judd who rose to stardom at WCE GF year 2006
Matera however was off the planet, 5 goals off a wing in the 1st GF win to a team outside Victoria was incredible.
@AnvilOfKrom Yes fair enough , but I tell you what on his day Matera was freak good. His running with the ball and kicking length was something new to the game. Ablett was brilliant in goals and Carey was brillant at setting up goals and dominating the Centre Half Forward position, problem with Carey was he was an arrogant prick and the umpire knew it. Both Ablett and Carey were certainly brilliant in their standard set position, Matera forward , back where ever and 5 goals off a wing amazing
@AnvilOfKrom Your dead right there mate , very average player. One year wonder. Young Ablett will go close again but I think it will go to Swan at Collingwood this year.
good times, 92 geelong were the highest scoring team in history and we beat them. 3 times in fact, after we lost our first game to them at subi, 11 goals the cats kicked in the 2nd term lol ablett went nuts.
We beat them 15.6 to 12.5 at kardinia, 20.13 to 14.11 2nd semi Suma bagged 8 goals and of course the GF 16.17 to 12.13.
Peter Sumich was the reason we won our flag in 92. People underestimate his importance. 82.46 that year, the year before 111.85, also snagged 76 in 93, 45 in 94
@didiiscro It was never Sumich who won premierships for the Eagles - he kicked only two in the 1994 Grand Final.
It was having one of the best backlines in football history, which was mastered only by Hawthorn with Dunstall at his very best - and then not always. Melbourne had a dangerous attack, but the Eagles' defence in the Preliminary was super - restricting a team with three half-century goalkickers to twelve scoring shots.
I said edited as in I didn't put the music over the top or edit it in any way.... it is straight off the 14 year old videotape I've got... and they mentioned in there it was the video shown to the players. Obviously they edited the end to show the celebrations from the game.
Things were very different back then... even when the Eagles finished on top of other sides we were ripped off by having our home games moved to the MCG because of the agreement... at least 2 seasons where we could have won it again but had home finals taken off us.
Thankfully they've changed the ridiculous rules now... but only because it was going to affect the AFL lovechild Sydney and Brisbane.
Strange that no one said it was too gay when Teddy did that last lap around the G in 95. I hate mariah scary as much as the next bloke but the song is pretty good for sporting occasions.
I think you'll find it was Peter Wilson. The song is OK, wouldn't really motivate me but it's quite appropriate because there were a lot of heroes in that team.
Yeah whatever, it doesn't matter. Nowadays you wont see a football player, let alone anyone, downing a 'sport (or even an EB) in public. Magic times were the early nineties.
i thought Peter Matera would have featured more in this. Great vid tho... It is interesting that almost every player in there is still involved in footy, either as a coach, media etc...
greg williams was an undeserving winner of the brownlow in 1994 it should of been peter matera

@BrianDewy Ablett Snr never won a Brownlow.
Neither did Wayne Carey.
I think you'd agree that they're both better than Peter Matera.
