1992 - sf beat us in all 4 previous meetings but not the one that counted

1994 - claremont odds on & had almost half a side of the soon to be dockers.....held on in a classic

92 or 94 ? - Judgy - “too old, too slow, too bloody good”. Onya Kenny, great quote.

I remember talking to Ken Baguley about this scenario when he was my boss at United Paper early 2000`s, and a decade before that by my first boss in my first job at ADIDAS, he was mad East Perth haha. Me and Glenny Dehring used to give him stick haha

1976.
Hard coming from the first semi but I knew we were good enough to beat WP, SF and EP.
And we did.
