      fantastic game. how did he convince gardiner that it was necessary to lead against him?
      then again, i think it would be worth trying 15-16 players on field so what would i know

          will "leo's mark" supplant "plugger's point" as the hallmark event of the sydney swans?

            Without a doubt, that mark will enter football legend along with such famous moments as Harmes' tap from the boundary in the 1979 Grand Final and Breen's point in the 1966 Grand Final. Single pieces of play that decide premierships are rare, so Leo Barry has gained membership of a very exclusive club.

              I think it will. Plugger's point only got us into the Grand Final for the first time in 51 years, Leo Barry's mark won us the premiership for the first time in 72 years.

                Leapin' Leo was bloody fab!

                Leo was a Bloody Legend and hopefully he'll snatch it 4 us again next year!
                My heart was thumping like a drum in those last few minutesof the game, i had to take a breather, hopefully the 'Bloodstained Angels' will win it again next year, the only disadvantage we've got next year though is that Jason'sgone, and gee, he played a bloody big match

                    Leo Barry just came running out of no where. That was amazing. Nick Davis goal - 3 secs to go. Leo Barry mark - 3 secs to go.

                        Here is a picture that sends shivers up your spine of what might have been.

                            Can't argue with that, and I want the first pic enlarged to poster size and laminated. The detail I particularly like is the arm of LRT as he takes out two Eagles to leave the ball to Leo without the umps noticing. SOS has taught him well and LRT has been an apt pupil.
                            He reminds him of the guys, close-set, slow, and never rattled, who were play-makers on the team. (John Updike, seeing Josh Kennedy in a crystal ball)

                              Had to love the dockers style Leo Leo chant at the aftermatch function (great fun).
