Kouta started that last quarter on the ball, superb marking and 2 goals - his team mates lifted and believed after that. Many great performances and individual efforts. One of the great finals.....
Thank you so much for putting this up. I actually taped this on vhs but it was lost. The highlights are highlights but the entire game is an epic. One of the greats. Koutas last qtr feats will forever be remembered. The context of the whole game (the entire season) make them all the more heroic. The navy blue face another formidable opponent in geelong who come of an 8 day break to our 6 plus travel. It's gonna take something special. Just like this.
This. The 2023 semi v demons and the 1973 semi v pies at Waverley. I attended the latter as a 9 yo. If you want to know why John Nicholls is venerated then look no further. In the 4th Collingwood got out to a winning lead around 3 goals. Big Nick scored 2 last qtr goals that reeked of champion. Check it out blue heads.
Through all the wins and losses and yes we were lucky to make the grand final that year and lost but never count Carlton out. We’ll keep fighting and coming
Count the blatant free kicks (many) with 5 minutes to go and how many were paid (none). So many mistakes made due to incredible pressure but the cream rose to the top (Kouta). One of the greatest games ever
Carlton shouldn't have been in that game - they got flogged first week of the finals but the stupid McIntyre system meant that they got to stay in. Then they got a free home final instead of going to Perth because the MCC held the AFL to ransom over games every week of the finals. Thankfully the system changed for the next year.

West Coast Eagles supporter here. I have this match on DVD that's how good I think it is.

I was in Germany, to add insult to injury.
Prob the most legendary game in afl history
Go carlton
one of the best preliminary Final of all time with Geelong vs collingwood 2007 all time classic

And all north melbourne fans celebrated just as hard as carlton at the end of this one! Essendon would of belted us in the granny
Appreciate the comment.
Can I make an observation please?
It is not 'would of', it's 'would have '.
Cheers mate.
How was Camporeale still conscious after this game? It was horrendous the beatings he got throughout the match.
KOUTA!!!
When carlton were awesome go blues.
How the F did Essendon lose this game of football

Imagine the scenes if we do the same against Brisbane
That didn't age well....another year on and you're still crap.
