Looking back over the last few years we have had some belters.
Some were simply spine tingling.
I remember watching us at our peak and just loved how our process grinded teams into dust.
Besides the grand finals and finals wins what is your favourite?

Mine is the 2019 late season game against the Eagles at the G.
Had to win to make top 4.
Pulsating.

Also 2019 round 4 vs Port in Adelaide.
Injuries galore.
Tiger Tom kicks 6.

2017 come from behind vs Dee's.
Starting to believe.

So many more. What a ride!

The Premiership in 17, beating the Scats in the 17 Q Final, and again the 19 P Final and the 20 GF, and beating Port in the PF in 2020.

The game I thought we were onto something was the late season loss to Geelong in 2017. We played our backsides off and were very unlucky not to win at GBHMDMA stadium. Didn't lose another game from that point on from memory.

My favourite (and I think the game we have played our best football) was the PF against Geelong in 2019. The second half was out of this world.

Yep. Round 22 2019 v the Eagles was a ripper. Interestingly we were 29 points down at one stage in the first quarter.
The following week last round v Brisbane at the G was also a cracking game of football. We got out to an early lead but Brisbane would just not let go.
Taken as a brace, those two were quite an effort. Before them we were fourth and the Lions and Eagles were 2nd and 3rd. Needed to win them both. Lose them both and we'd have finished 5th.
And Round 5 2017 v Melbourne. They had significant in-game injuries but still a good win and put us at 5-0.

2017 Qualifying Final is my favourite game of all time. Edges out the 1995 Semi final.

Probably biased as I was there, but 2019 PF for me.

The dive and ridiculous 50 (umpire had not indicated who had the free) just before half time I reckon put a bomb under the Tigers. Geelong were very good in the first half, they set up well, they stopped our run out of half back, they ground their way to a decent lead.

We obliterated that lead in less than a quarter and went on to win.

If Geelong had won that game they would have smacked GWS in the GF so a lost flag right there for the Cats.

Every game we won are my favourite games. Particularly those against Collingwood, Carlton and Essendon.

I'm quite fond of the win in the GF against Geelong in 2020.

Round 4 against Port in 2019 was also a great one. We had depth coming out of our ears back then.

I always liked the Dreamtime at the G game in 2018, we were at the peak of our powers and walloped the Bumbers.

Not counting the Finals.

The win against the Maggots in our second meeting late 2019 when we were rolling in like an avalanche.

A cold miserable rainy sleety Friday Night and Tom Lynch and Choldo, helped to cut the Collingwood Football club to pieces.


Every Dream Time win and every Round 1 win.

The wins over Port in Adelaide early 2019 and the Prelim along with our finals wins over the cats as chronologically they all had more resting on them as we went along QF. PF then GF.

The Q/F beating up on the Bears at the Gabba with the Tiger King tearing them a new one.

Not a RFC game per se but the Gee Whiz getting over the Maggots in the 2019 PF after we rolled the Cats was a great great night. I was more confident of the Tigers gettting up on GF after that.

And as a result the 2019 GF of course for the most enjoyable stress free day of magnificence ever once we got to halfway through the second and started to get them and shake them..

2020 was as sweet a ride after the bye as any, each win was as good as the next as the Tigers marched on taking num,bers and beating arses on their way to back to back in the most ridiculous year ever.

West Coast at the MCG in late 2019 - one of the best games I’ve ever seen.
