OK since the year is over heres my top 3 moments
1. Beating Adelaide by 2 points...unbelievable scenes when the siren went, the most emotional scenes ive seen since 1990. And to do it that far into enemy territory was sensational, especially to make the scumbags THINK they could beat us..LOL it was PURE GOLD all the way.
2. Beating Port Adelaide in S.A. The game itself was great, but when the players sang the song with us, it was clearly the second best moment of the year.
3. Beating Carlton (this is for obvious reasons, we beat the FILTH as Joffa would say)
So two of the best interstate trips ive ever had, i wont forget them in a hurry. What about everone else??

I agree with you SS11 although I wasn't at the interstate games.
The Port Adelaide game I was crying when I saw Eddie singing with the cheersquad, I would have given anything to be there.
The Adelaide game I was jumping round the lounge room listening to the radio screaming GO SIREN, GO SIREN! - then went hysterical when it did.
The Carlton game was one of the best days of my life - after the siren I was hugging complete strangers and the after match function was brilliant - singing the song with Eddie and the players.
But that's just my opinion (I get a bit carried away sometimes}

The top moment was definitely beating Adelaide. The atmosphere during the whole game was great - it was like being part of a family, where you either know everyone or you just talk to people you don't even know. Everyone was very friendly, except of course for the Adelaide whingers - but that was great too, because we got to rub their noses in it when we won (and didn't they shut up then, after whinging thru the whole game "Buckley you're a wanker, leaving the real Magpies for this rabble", "Buckley you're shit" - well he sure showed them, by winning the game for us). I'm definitely planning another interstate trip next year (BTW anyone know when 2002 fixture is released???).
I enjoyed beating Carlton too, but we should have won by a lot more, so I wasn't as excited at the end of the game as I had been until 3 quarter time.
Unfortunately I wasn't in Adelaide for the game against Port - but it was even great watching it at a pub in North Melbourne. When we won (shit I think I almost had a heart attack, cos it got so close), fellow Pies supporters (who I'd never met before) bought me a couple of rounds of Cocksucking Cowboys (yummmmmy)! Well, that was certainly a good night!
I also enjoyed the games against Footscray - electrifying stuff, kicking all those goals so quickly!; West Coast - great to beat them convincingly seeing as they'd had the wood over us in recent times; and Melbourne - highlight being Chrissy's brilliant mark.

i'm spewing i didn't make it to the adelaide games, but just watching the port game on tv gave me a heart attack! that was bloody crazy.
anyway my 3 highlights are:
3. the third quarter vs. the bulldogs. actually the first time i sat with the cheer squad; it was unbelieveable. people were going bananas all around me.
2. the comeback against the saints. i thought we were gone at half time.
1. winning the carlton match. i was jumping all over the place after that one.
some honourable mentions:
neon's goal vs. the bulldogs
tazza's mark (though i didn't really see it properly live)
the eagles game (it was a party!)
raymond's turd on the canberra bus.

I can see mathematics isn't your strong point, Joffa.
For me, the first two are easy:
1. The players and Eddie coming over and singing the song with the Cheer Squad after beating Port.
2. The heart-stopping win over Carlton ... and the celebrations that followed.
For my third choice, there are a number of candidates. The win over Melbourne was hilarious. Just one of those days when nothing went wrong. Both wins over the Bulldogs were immensely enjoyable. West Coast was a fun night. Especially after all the times they've beaten us in recent years. Unfortunately I wasn't there for the win over the Crows, but it felt bloody beautiful back home.
Shit, I've just mentioned 7 games ... I think my maths is nearly as bad as Joffa's.

1. Beating Carlton - any win over the Blues is a great day!
2. Even though I wasn't there, beating Adelaide by 2 points in S.A. was amazing!
3. Watching Jarrod Molloy knock his opponents out of the way during the season! Awesome stuff!
And as a couple of extra highlights, I'd have to say Tazza's mark of the year (it should have been his!) and Jarrod's mark that wasn't a mark (damn umpires)! And then there's been some pretty cool goals from the Davis boys too.
Here's to a highlight packed 2002 Season!
GO PIES!
