Comeback wins in AFL make for some of the best footy stories each season, creating feelgood - or feel bad - moments, depending on which side you are on.

Let's take a look at 10 of the biggest comebacks in the AFL era, which means any game played prior to 1990 is not included in this list.

Honourable Mentions

Some notable comebacks that just missed our Top 10 include:

2013 Elimination Final: Carlton defeats Richmond by 20-points after trailing by 32.

The Tigers looked close to their first finals win in 12 years, but a Blues six-goal last quarter wouldn't allow it.

Round 5, 2011: Gold Coast defeats Port Adelaide, after trailing by 40-points in the third quarter, to record their first AFL win.

1993 Preliminary Final: Essendon defeats Adelaide, after the Crows raced to a 42-point lead at half time. The Dons would kick 11 goals to two in the second half to win by 11-points.

Round 7, 2000: Showdown between Adelaide and Port Adelaide. The Crows came back from a 42-point deficit.

2018 Grand Final: West Coast won by five points in what many consider the best AFL Grand Final in recent memory, perhaps even the best overall game. Collingwood kicked the first five goals to lead by 29-points, but the Eagles fought back to win a close one.

So, now we get to our Top-10 comebacks of the AFL era.

Richmond came back to win a game that looked all but over 22-minutes into the second quarter. Hawthorn kicked eight goals to two in the first term, to give themselves an early 38-point buffer.

Hawthorn would increase that to 51-points in the second term, but went missing for the rest of the game. From then on, Richmond kicked 14 unanswered goals until halfway into the last quarter.

This was the Tigers biggest comeback ever.

Hawthorn 8.3.51 12.6.78 12.8.80 14.11.95
Richmond 2.1.13 8.3.51 15.5.95 18.7.115
