    Brilliant stuff. I've been wanting to see the 2003 QF for weeks now but my disk of the game is buried in storage. Thank you.

    I don't suppose anyone has Round 11 1970 v Collingwood LOL Best game i ever saw. I remember there was footage on Footy Replay. I wonder if the TV stations still have the old footage in a vault somewhere. It would be priceless now.

    I'm with you Aardvark best game I ever saw, came from 17 points down well into time on, we hit the front with only seconds to go and everyone just ran onto the ground it took ages for the ground to get cleared off, once re started Collingwood took the ball out of the centre and kicked it to Peter McKenna the siren sounded just before he marked it.
    It felt like we had just won the flag.

    Unreal. I didn't think i'd ever find anyone else who was there. I have fond memories of walking around the outer after the game watching the Collingwood fans with tears in their eyes.
    One of the absolute highlights of my childhood.

    Doctor J (long time poster) has often spoken of that game when the discussion gets around to the best swans games attended. He was there.

    I still have a copy of the footy record from the first semi final vs St kilda from 1970. One of my most prized posessions. Our first finals appearance since 1945 and The chimps only finals appearance

    I'd been watching games on TV for a couple of years, but this was the first game I ever went to watch at the SCG. It was a classic; 20 points down at 3/4 time, kicked 10.3 to 3.1 in the last quarter and stormed home. I've learned since that not every game is like that ;-) but it was a pretty good introduction for me.
