Can anybody recall some great comebacks over the years.
A couple that spring to mine straight for myself are
1. Port melb v Coburg 1980 grand final at junction oval
2. port v Box hill three or four years ago being down by around 50points at port.

How about Sandy in the 94 Grand Final against Box Hill at Vic Park. From memory they had kicked 4 goals at three quarter time and were 5 goals down. Somehow they turned the whole thing around and one by just over a kick - not exactly sure of the margin.
(Not disimilar from Frankston's effort on the weekend. And fancy a Collingwood supporter blaming the umpire's for their loss!!)
I was at the 94 GF with my family and we were surrounded by Box Hill fans who were giving it to us all day, and it was very sweet to rub it in after the final siren. Great day!
Box Hill coach John Murphy had quite a verbal altercation with a Sandy fan near us after the final siren...
Steve Amiet put us in front and Ian Herman kicked the sealer.....
good day all round for Sandy that day...won the u/19, Reserves and senior flag...
Box Hill's Peter Burke was in tears after the game.
Sandringham did look gone at three quarter time.
It was like they had fresh legs as there were ordinary in the first three quarters and were outplayed. Good comeback by Sandy.
