What about KGs hit on one of the Bulldogs forwards (i forget who) after he had given away a penalty.
They had to take the bulldog off.

yep - that was the one i referred to. now THAT is why we love the game!
 
For me 3 way tie between-

Smashing Souths
Finally beating Parra, added bonus of it being on their home turf
Beating the Silvertail scum by a point. So great listening to their fans whine about losing
 
Favourite game - Beating Parra finally - Its pretty much the only Round game each year that means so much to me. It was even sweeter sitting at Parra Stadium to watch it.

Worst Game - Losing to Parra :laughing: I was with all my Parra mates and somehow kept a smile on my face. We played well that night and the niggling thing i had in the back of my head was "Parra has just finished our season with all those injuries". I wanted to cry.

The Souths game also disturbed me and now reflecting back, it cost us deep!

the " biffo" in the scrum in game against cowboys, at leichhardt oval.
.
was great to see all cowboys forwards restrained by the wests-tigers pack, so robbie could sort out an "issue with the opposing hooker".

the ovation that robbie got, when he was sent to the sin bin, was great.

Nail on the head, however one classical moment, or shall i say moments, were both occasions when John Morris, perfectly timed his fifth tackle charges on JT (TigersVCowboys@leighcardt), which absoutely leveled the man!

That and the Melbourne game at Leichhardt for mine - never seen us defend as good as that night.
 
the first half v manly at the sfs. the best half of football ive seen from us since we won the comp.

probably no coincidence it was the only game we had a full strength team.
 
Finally experiencing a win against Parramatta at Parramatta Stadium was my favourite moment. Having grown up in the area, a lot of my friends are Eels supporters so it was nice to have them on the receiving end of the banter!
 
best moment:

When Tony Williams threw the ball over the side-line and we had all but won 19-18 at the SFS

best game: vs bulldogs, round 26\. memorable moments include the 2nd try off lawrence, with millimetres to work with, he was still able to score the try and when marshall beat about 4 of them to score
 
Best Game

1\. Parramatta (the one we lost) ( the best game of the decade)
2\. Storm (16-6) ( Defence, attack weverything was brilliant) ((l) Chris Lawrence Vs Billy Slater)
3\. Knights (Beau Ryan and Benji) (tryies and conversions)
4\. Parramatta (the one we won)
5\. Bulldogs (mighty good game)

Best Moment

1\. Benji's Flick pass to Ashyford
2\. Benji's conversion against knights
3\. Lawrence Vs Billy
4\. Farah Vs Watts
5\. Galloway smashing the living daylights out of some Bulldog

Worst Moments

1\. Merrit's Conversion
2\. Hayne's try
3\. The stupid Ref decisions in the Broncos game
4\. Shannon Gallant's conversion attempt against the Bulldogs
5\. The whole of Warriors game
 
Had to be vs Cowboys at Liechardt Oval. Packed out hill on a 3pm sunday avro kick off, one of the best experiences i have had. I remember when Bowen was put in after the 1st minute everyone went silent! Then Benji off the scrum combined with Watts dogshot on Farah started to fire up the crowd. Then the noise was defening when Farah got his own back with Watts, Pretty sure he got a few in there! Everyone had sprung to life, atmosphere was something special and best try was seeing Gallant go in on a Benji inside ball to sprint past Matty Bowen–> that incoupled with the mighty mouse wanting to go Carl Webb
 
Hmmm my favorite game this year would probably be the NSW Cup game at Campbelltown Stadium, Western Suburbs Vs Balmain Ryde. The Magpies never looked like losing and my favorite moment was from that game was when Gallant attempted a conversion from the sideline with the loud "LOLLY LEGS" chant from right behind him from the front row from a few Balmain Ryde supporters. Gallant gave them a smile when it went right over the black dot…
 
My fave moment was just Tuiaki. I guess seeing him trample and smash the defence like an insane rhino and score like a demon for the Tiges, well its been a long time since someone like him has played on our wing.

Worst - yeah I agree with everyone else - those 4 losses by 2 or less points killed us. Really the Eels run should have been us in so many ways. Even 1 more win would have given us that opportunity.

Plus the injuries we sustained in that Parra match in the 3rd last match of the year I think it was? SHi'ite
