And then it was all topped by a game at Adelaide Oval last night, which was heaped in emotion.
Of course, the situation surrounding the Dawson family and the way that game was played, it was slow and down early.
St Kilda were able to build a nice lead, 26 points, and then the Crows went bang, bang, bang.
Tex Walker got up off the canvas against Callum Wilkie, and that was one of the games, if not the game of the season.
So the game found a way,
Cameron, to deliver to us.
For me, it was a lot about the topsy-turvy nature of all three games.
It wasn't like any of them were necessarily neck and neck all the way or one team had built a gigantic lead and it was eroded late in the game and the other team was either able to come back and win or just fall short.
It was just the up and down nature of the game.
Even the... Take the Suns and Essendon, you know, Gold Coast up by eight points at halftime, then down by three points at... Sorry, up by eight points at quarter time, down by three points at halftime, up by 12 points at three-quarter time, and then they just find a way to win that game despite...
looking like they were absolutely going to lose that game in the final quarter.
So it was the topsy-turvy nature of it for me that was most exciting.
The Hawthorne and Port Adelaide game was the same.
It was basically a brick wall at one end of the ground and score, as you will, at the other end of the ground.
So I loved the way the games were played.
I loved seeing teams have momentum.
And I love...
seeing and dissecting how teams try and stop and halt momentum.
It's the hardest thing in world sport to do at any level of sport, any grade, whatever the sport it is you play.
The hardest thing to do is to halt momentum and try and stem the bleeding.
