Perhaps you mean estivating for the summer?
1996 PF v Bombers (By a Plugger point)
2005 SF v Cats (The day Davis came to Savis)
I was too young to remember.
Jumped on the bandwagon post '96 and don't know.

Since I probably was too young too remember the '96 Final, I'll go with the SF against the Cats. I nearly had a heart attack that night and I was only 14 then...
Oh my God....14 and comes from Sydney and a girl...that combination strikes terror into the hearts of all non-New South Welsh people!

Hmmm.
A tough choice.
Although my emotions during the '96 PF were somewhat clouded owing to my drinking a tequila slammer every time the Swans scored a goal, I do remember celebrating long and loud.
Some bemused friends who didn't follow the code thought I was a bit off my rocker.
But the Geelong Final last year had me sober, working back late and hearing the half time score and merciless teasing by my colleagues.
The drive home during the 3rd quarter gave me some hope, and I had a feeling that we would come back.... as I kept telling my non-believeing co-workers before I left.
The last quarter was incredible. My husband and I were on the edge of our seats, jumping up and down.
ND's last goal was amazing and I displayed the Swans flag proudly and prominently in the staff room on the following Monday.
Have to go with the Geelong Final.
