    It was the decade that changed the face of football as we knew it. There would be three new teams: the Adelaide Crows, Fremantle and Port Adelaide. We farewelled Fitzroy and watched others like Footscray, Richmond, Melbourne and Hawthorn battle for their existence. For the first time non-Victorian clubs would take premiership honours. West Coast won twice and Adelaide won back-to-back flags against the odds. It was a decade in which the feats of goalkicking maestros Jason Dunstall and Gary Ablett were overshadowed by the record breaker Tony Lockett.

    The last great decade of football and, in my opinion, the best and most exciting the game ever was and ever will be. The best players. The best games. It had it all. Footy today is a mere shadow of what it once was. The 90’s footy was incredible.

      @@richard_nj considering I watch 90’s footy pretty regularly here on RUclips to show my kids then no, it’s not nostalgia or anything like that. Footy WAS indeed far better during the 90’s both as a spectacle and as a sport. It wasn’t kicking backwards all the time. It wasn’t rugby scrums everywhere. It wasn’t all players following the ball instead of standing in their designated positions on the field. Game was also officiated far better as well. Rules change today to try speed up the game yet we have goal line decisions that can stop a game for up to a couple of minutes and we can’t even get conclusive proof with goal line technology! Footy was great in the 80’s and at its peak in the 90’s. Since then it’s been on a downward spiral.

      @@VincentBrancatisano1980 Obviously nostalgia plays a part. It literally can't not. When we get exposed to and learn to love something like footy during our childhood, when we're impressionable and excitable, then we're always gonna look more favorably on that particular era of it. Whether we're just remembering those times or actively rewatching them, our experience of them is permanently skewed, we can't help it. I'm not saying footy in the 90's wasn't great or that your opinion is invalid, just that there isn't a right answer to the question of when the sport was at its peak. There's no such thing as a universally objective truth in a matter such as this. And your take on it has as much to do with when you happened to be born as it does with anything else.

      @@VincentBrancatisano1980 I know you were born in 1980, and I wasn't talking about what decade you watched the most footy or remember the most from. It's the fact that 90s footy would've impacted you at a very formative stage in your life. I've watched games from the 90s, they're not objectively the best, because again, there's no such thing. Some people that are older than you would advocate for earlier decades with the same conviction that you have for the 90s, and some people that are younger than you would do the same for later decades. The deciding factor isn't the footy, it's when we were born. Again, it's not that you are wrong, it's that no one can be right.

    Best decade of football, great players, Waverly park still up and running, lockett, dunstall, ablett, Carey, Harvey, Buckley, Voss, hird and so many more. The great teams of west coast and north, drought breaking pies flag in 90, through to north in 99, the crows winning back to back in 97/98 even though they finished 4th in 97 and 5th in 98 from memory. West coast making the finals every year of the decade, north making the last 6 prelims of the decade for 2 flags, football was so much better, coaches were happy to have players go at it one on one, the game was far more entertaining, i would gladly watch any random game from any year in the 90's, now i force myself to watch my team each week to be loyal, other games i couldn't care less, I'm glad the afl has made some rule changes to make the game go back a bit, the hands in the back rule was crap, and I'm interested to see how the 6-6-6 starting positions open up the game at all, the only thing I like about afl these last few years is how even the league seems to be, anyone of 6-7 teams can win the flag realistically and another 5-6 teams have a much bigger chance then they would even just 5 years ago, I'm a pies fan, but I would love to see Melbourne and stkilda win a flag, outside of 2010 the doggies winning in 2016 was the greatest premiership I've ever seen in my opinion, no one predicted that, no one..lets hope the flow of the game starts to go back to the footy we all grew up and crave so much

    Its a funny coincidence that for AFL the 90s was the decade that delivered and for the NRL it was the decade of self destruction and War .Both games were on a equal footing at the start of the decade by the end of it the AFL was the clear front runner in the battle of the codes.The Australian sporting landscape would be alot different if things went differently .The Super league War nearly destroyed Rugby League ,there teams in Adelaide ,Perth were casualties of war and alot of disgruntled League fans turned to the Swans and Lions .Without the war Rugby League wouldve been in the position the AFL finds itself and the Swans and Lions would of most likely folded and there would be no Giants and Suns for sure and the Western Reds and Adelaide Rams would be like the Swans and Lions .Rugby League is only now really getting over the war and is gaining ground again in the battle of the codes The AFL isn't as secure at the top as the last 30 years have made it seems it hasn't always been so easy .

    1990's and 2000's were great even the early 2010's weren't horrible but now it's just a bunch of clowns running the show

    The only downside to the 90s was the demise of Fitzroy.
