Infamous Chokes or Mishaps Forgotten Because the Team Still Ended Up Winning

Annoys me when people say how Barry shouldn't have been paid the mark because Sampi/other Eagles players were being held. If you go back one contest, Dean Cox shoves Jolly in the back and takes a mark. It's an incredibly blatant shove that somehow the umpires missed. Cox's kick is marked by Barry. If West Coast had won it would've been a travesty.
I don't disagree but I remember the post match commentary at the time was about Sampi being held. Other things as you said happened but the Sampi hold was the thing that got the focus.
