There have been so many unforgettable sporting moments over the years. We’re talking Warney’s ball to Gatting, Eddie The Eagle’s spectacularly unspectacular ski jumps, Eric Grothe’s tackle-busting try against the Bulldogs: the list goes on and on.
Luckily, many of them have been captured for posterity on video. We want to compile a series of your favourite sporting moments that have ended up as clips on the YouTube video site. Yes, the joys of technology!
We’ve got the ball rolling with a few of The Roar’s favourites. But we’d love to hear about some of your favourite sporting moments, so tell us why you think it was so special and leave a link with your comment to the corresponding YouTube video. We’ll then add the clip to the thread.
