AFL: St Kilda Saints star Jack Higgins scored an insane last-gasp snap to win it for the Saints and open the possibility of knocking Carlton out of the eight.
Paddy Dow had to wait until Round 24 to face his old mob for the first time ... but you sense it was worth the wait.And, at the time, it had the potential to knock the Blues out of the top eight to add to the theatre of a tense game.
“You looked down at the clock and you saw there was 12 seconds left. It was good to see him finish in a clutch moment.”Receiving a free kick in front of goal late in the third term for getting pushed in the back Blues skipper Patrick Cripps, Dow went back and nailed the set shot despite a chorus of boos from Carlton fans to extend St Kilda’s lead.
“But it was still good to catch up with them and I’ll have a chat to a few of my close mates later on.”
