- James Hird's Winning Goal vs West Coast 2004. The week preceding the game, Hird critised umpire Mclaren for his performance in Round 2. Hird was critised for these comments and faced a heavy fine. In the math against West Coast he ammassed 34 disposals and 3 goals. His winning goal will remain legendary.
One of the greatest players of all time. From a Hawks supporter. His skills are unsurpassed.
James HIRD what a ledgend! the afl is not going to see another player like this again for a very long time!
Pure legend, Carlton supporter here, and as tradional rivals, there is a tremedous amout of respect for a man who has nothing but class and skill. Congrats on such a decorated career!
James Hird is/was a legend. The way he went about his footy was excellent, and he will be missed, greatly.
One of the greatest goals of all time gonna miss James Hird as coach :(
I'm not a bombers supporter but i gotta say Hirdy's an absolute champion and the game is definitely gonna miss him. That goal was freakin awesome
Clearly shows why Hird is reguarded as one of the games all times greats!
The great man.....it doesnt get better than this
"i thinks hes had 15 disposals?"
"he has 15 disposals"
"hes had 15 disposals"
hird is a living legend - thanks for the memories brother!
As a young essendon fan, one of my favourite moments i will never 4get it.
"The Fairytale is Complete!"
brings a tear to my eye
not even a essendon supporter!
every time i watch this i get chills hirdy is a legend
that's fucking legendary. LOVE hirdy, he played like a freak in that game. remember spilling hot milk over myself after he kicked that goal.
This bloke was a freak, at another level, probably one of the most naturally gifted players of all time!
i could watch this over and over. its so damn good!
One of the best finishes ever. Luv ya Hirdy!
can't stop watching this.
I was at that game!!!! Hirdy's a legend. Not wearing long sleeves is rare
im glad am i lived to see it. Rama needs some credit too his defensive punch in the dying seconds saved the game. It was a great game Hird had been in the wars with media and all that stuff and he showed why he is the best Essendon player of the modern era..CHAMP
Don't think I've ever heard a more spine-tingling roar from any footy crowd.
I remember watching this. Amazing.
Greatest of all time WHAT A goal
licking his hands as he walked towards the contest he is just brilliant!! he does it like its easy
I'm an Eagles fan and I love this moment.
"James Hird got that ball out of the centre bounce. He's moving down towards this contest. If anybody's gonna get it it, it'll be James..." - Robert Walls
"McDougall heads for the boundary line. Maybe Murphy should've kicked. Bullen. Hird! Hird!!! The fairytale is complete. After a horror week, James Hird you are a genius!" - Stephen Quartermain
I can never forget these words.
unbelievable, with what 20 seconds to go, i'm no expert at this (being an american and not being able to watch this here in America), but thats unbelievable that this can get this tense and exciting, then that happens, remarkable goal along the boundary line
@Wrightyy13 Dude you know nothing.
His stats were:
27 Kicks
7 Handballs
34 Disposals
7 Marks
2 Tackles
3 Goals
1 Behind
6 clearances in the last quarter
Clearly one of the great performance
legend. one of the best players from the 90s to today, reason why i wear number 5 haha
Remember watching this. This was a great game and an amazing game from Hird, especially given the week he had just had. After the centre bounce after Hird's winning goal the West Coast player who passed it to Cousins threw it to him and Essendon should have had a free kick. Thankfully this did not matter in the end.
one of the best moments in afl
Thank you for your thoughts but I think this was a great little Hirdism, you probably saw it first hand. Good luck for the Cats in 2008! GO BOMBERS!
It would have been paid in 2007 and onwards. But I am pretty happy with how it turned out in the end!
You have to admit that Fletcher is a hero here too.
I get shivers...
One man made it all happen.
james hird got the ball out of the center bounce, hes moving down to this contest, if anyones gonna get it ittl be james
couldn't have put it better myself
i agree with you ... im from the states and i believe footy is better than the americanzed games. it's got the emotion and fighting of ice hockey, the high scoring of basketball, the skill of soccer/football, and the physicality of american football MINUS the pads. Wish more of us here in the USA had some taste. Go Bombers.
i remember watching this, i can't believe it was almost 8 years ago...
Juventuz500 i can't believe it was 13 years ago
I'm a Crows fan, but that is one game I would have liked to have been at.
Gotta love Hirdy!
im a melbounre supporter but i would honestly love to be that supporter!
hirdy was the best AFL player of all time.
From an Eagles point of view...typical intelligent clear headed thinking and decision making from McDougall...god he was a spud...can't even punch a ball to the boundary line!
And to think he got no Brownlow votes for that game..
Hirdy You Are A Ledgend!
for some reason, if you play satisfaction by the rolling stones with this, it goes really well.
What a legend!
@LilRocker1990 ....or the game is judged on a 4 quarter effort? if a player gets no touched then kicks the winning goal is he the best on ground because he won it? or does it go to his teammates who put him in a position to win the game off his final kick?
As long as he keeps winning games for us, i don't care what he is
Great game hird is a legend
Watch at 1:42.
Classic Fletcher brilliance.
What a legend, he can change the whole game with his own boot
The only correct prediction Robert Walls has ever made.
Fletcher made a very important save at the end also!
Sensational!
i remember that like it was yesterday.
what a great player
what a legend
i wish i went to this game
thats a high scoring game
James Hird= God!!
wat a lucky supporter... imagine the captain of your team running up to you and huggin you after kicking the winning goal!!!
omg at 0:10 and 0.46 listen to the crowd what a game!
How many disposals did he have in the last quarter??
I was there 3rd tier right behind the goal post 😁
No you clearly don't follow foot ball at all, if you remember the events leading up to this game then you can't deny its greatness
he already is a superstar, so is big willy
@Wrightyy13 also, the 15 they say in the vid is 15 in the last quarter
@simoman1234567 i actually think he says 'after a HORROR week, James Hird you are a genius'
love this footage, spine tingling.
omg great goal from hirdy yay woohoo, lol but i go 4 both teams so its great !!! but sad ='( lol
James Hird.
'nuff said.
like the zarharakis goal
great call robert walls
i didnt get a hug :(
bit hard on the 3rd tear!
wat a ledge
one of his best games - 34 touches, 3 goals including the winning one and he didnt even get a brownlow vote.... umpires are biast sooky girls
couldnt agree more.
@gelgamex ah ok thanks i didnt realise the stats, sounds like did dominate in which case maybe your right the umpires were dogs in this game. but someone else posted the votes 3. lloyd 2. judd 1. cousins, how did they go in the game? did they dominate just as much? im assuming lloyd kicked a bag.
btw im neutral i love football not having a go or anything :)
@Wrightyy13 so who exactly do you go for??? it's not lik essendon is one of the most storied and most successful clubs in afl/vfl history... but you know whatever
@gelgamex well someone below posted he got 3 votes so im assuming he kicked a bag :) lloydy never moved into the midfield so i doubt he would of gathered many touches besides marks and goals.
15 disposals and 2 goals mate.
THA MAN
THE MYTH
THE LEGEND
should be HD, but still great
@stinsgrunter one of the best comments in history
No matter what happened there, Port Adelaide will go on to win the premiership!
Was that Micheal Hurley who he hugged?
Or do i really badly need glasses?
wheree is hird in the finals of 07? enough said
KarleyHansen How The Hell Do You Go For The Wet Toast Bagles? Anyway, James Hird You Are The Messiah
Yeah go Bombers w00t w00t everybody hates the shitgals. I remember this was the first full AFL I have ever watched and it was a beauty!
Visible goosbumps on my arms.
1:26 center circle looked weird back then
that's what you call clutch
definately
yep, the umpire he singled out was scott mclaren
Hird is a legend and so is Sheeds so lay off, you are just jealous that you havent suceeded like them
The Telstra dome....good times
james hird u little ripper
fucking great kicking by essenndon - 22.5
He paid 20 grand to play in this game. Money well spent
hird should have won another brownlow that year
hird! HIRD!
