    The Moment: Rnd 14, 2024 vs Fremantle

    The moment; the best, most courageous moment that caught your eye in tonight's game against Fremantle.
    Was it the moment that told you 'we've got this' or 'we lost this one right here'? Or was it the moment that you went 'wow....that is crazy courage'

    Was it a collection of moments or perhaps one you felt had greater significance outside of the actual game's result?.. Or maybe it was a downright gobshite game, with little to crow about...but you know, you're still down to get your post count up as you set your gaze towards your next 60,000 posts............. BAD.... who love's ya baby...

    Yep. Was sitting on that pocket, even the Freo fans were shaking their heads in disbelief.

    Yep there’s no other answer. Maybe Treacy missing his foot on a set shot from 10m out for the second time.

    Funny story: I was with my kids at the game and my 12yo had this weird, distracting chant that he came with during a backyard game ages ago. He yelled it out before each of Treacy's set shots and he was rolling with laughter when it actually worked.

    Was he the 2-4-6-8 you can’t kick straight kid?

    Bont’s goal beating 3 was so brilliant and inspirational, it may well be The Moment of the year.

    Nothing that witty, just random gibberish. That's pretty damn funny though.

    Richards with his underground handball that resulted in West's second goal. It just felt like it was going to be our day after that.

    One moment that was kind of slept on (maybe not in the gameday thread IDK I'm not reading all that) was Bont getting a handball receive below his ankles, picking up the half volley on his toes in the centre square and hitting a target inside 50 for an easy look at goal.

    It's kind of his own fault for making it look so easy and pulling off an amazing kick after but the first part was kind of almost just as good IMO IMO. Oh and for also maybe kicking goal of the year. Pretty good sign when Bont is doing that stuff

    I don't think there was a real 'moment' this week but my highlight moment was either Bonts goal or Richards unstoppable pass to Lobb.

    Plenty of moments today. Obviously Bont’s 3 on 1 goal. There was also a 3 on 1 that Treloar won in the middle which was pretty special but the moment for mine was the scramble in the first quarter that led to a West goal from a Bont handball off his knees. Really gave us momentum heading into the 2nd.

    the Bramble goal was pretty good. I though it marked a moment in his career that he can execute at the AFL stage. Well done young man.
