Chooseday night next - Lockett Vs caven's Face.

For this week's choices, we're offering three action-packed displays from forward pocket rockets. The most popular game will go to air on Tuesday, July 13, at 8.30pm on Fox Sports 1HD and Fox Sports 1.

Cast your vote in the poll at the bottom of this page.

Tony Lockett: St Kilda v Sydney Swans, round seven, 1994
This was a memorable day for more reasons than Plugger's 11 goals and the Saints' extraordinary surge to a one-point victory. This was the afternoon Lockett's elbow met Swans defender Peter Caven's face. Violently. The burly full forward was rubbed out for eight weeks and the next season he headed to Sydney. Just another day in the turbulent career of one of AFL's greats.

It was sickening the way the Caven viciously attacked Lockett's elbow in that manner!!

That incident aside, this would have to be one of my favourite matches, gone for all money, the commentators even refer to a goal in the last qtr(I think it's Grieg's) as a consolation goal for the saints.

I remember going ballistic when Plugger drilled the winner low and hard at the cheer squad.


Life is very short and there's no time for fussing and fighting my friends.

Everybody vote.

The most outstanding last quarter I have ever seen from a player. Plugger was unstoppable, as Caven found out.


Australia...... Live it like we stole it....... Because we did.

I was at this one. One of my fondest Saintly memories, although not for the Caven incident. Horrible piece of thuggery. Still, take that out and its one of the great individual performances of all time.



As the commentator at the end says: "That is one of the best wins EVER."


"The inches we need are everywhere around us. They're in every break in the game. Every minute, every second. On this team we fight for that inch. On this team we tear ourselves and everyone around us to pieces for that inch. We claw with our fingernails for that inch. Because we know when we add up all those inches that's gonna make the f***in' difference between winning and losing! Between living and dying!'

Looking forward to watching this match. Shocking headbutt by Caven... I think its hilarious how Lockett is remembered as a Sydney great.

This game shows every side to Pluggers time at the Sainters, brilliant, unstoppable, brainless, thug, legend, there will never be another Plugger!

Go those mighty Sainters!!

Good thing the synopsis doesn't give too much away to those who don't remember the game.

"This was one of the most remarkable comebacks in the game's history. St Kilda was 48 points down 6 minutes into the final term. Tune in to find out what happened next."

I can take a guess!

Same guy must have done the Star Wars one too which is on in a second:

"Luke Skywalker, together with his twin sister Princess Leah who, it is revealed later, are actually Darth Vader's children..."

Used to love it when Peter McKenna did our games...he loved Lockett.

Laughed out loud in that last quarter then when plugger took a mark on the boundary......McKenna go's "I love him!"

42 points down 8 mins to go....that will never happen again

I massively would love to watch this game. One of the greatest games of football ever. Does anyone know how I could get a copy? Are there any torrents floating around?
