96 was very cool of course, but 99 was sheer magic, I can still remember the craziness in the crowd when Maxfield kicked that goal.
I really enjoyed that H&A game in 96 at PP - incidentally, (and in relation to the Malthouse saga and the topics about whether or not to boo a player) Carey was called 'rapist,' as well as 'groper' numerous times from various swans supporters throughout the game - he had a poor game that day.
Plugger was on fire during this period - 10 goals that game, which followed hauls of 9 and 11 in the preceding two games.
It was a close game, but then we just exploded - loved it.
1999 was the most courageous win coming from 40 points down in the 2nd Qtr.
1996 was the best performance, it was great football all day.
Best moments v Norf were the Robbie Ahmat goal and that Kelly goal in 99

1977...yeah I go back that far
Round 22 we played the Kangas at Arden Street
We had to win to make the finals....And Footscray had to beat Carlton
We kicked 6 goals to 1 in the last quarter to win the game by 10 points...and I remember running on the Ground...my transistor radio to my ear listening to the Footscray-Carlton game
Footscray kicked a goal to seal the game (Carlton had kicked 7 goals in the last quarter to try and steal a win)
I remember everything except which Swans player I was walking next to...and yelling at him that we were in the Finals...looking at the player list I think it might have been Greg Lambert?

Probably '96 at Princes Park. Pretty even first quarter and then we just kept kicking goals. Plugger just put it beyond doubt in the second half - absolutely dominated the third quarter.
Special mention to the 2008 EF. Our last significant win of that great era. We'd smashed Brisbane in the last game of the season but we were really struggling prior to that. Turned it on in the third quarter - glad that I went up for it.
