Come for the rivalry, stay for the Nick Daicos masterclass.
It was the best individual quarter of the year and probably the best quarter of Daicos' career.
Thirteen touches, two goal assists, one goal, three centre clearances and two tackles to get the Pies home by five points after trailing by 18 at the last change.
Somehow that statsline still undersells his majesty in the last quarter.
It was the sort of individual monopoly usually reserved for NBA games - not on an AFL field where winning demands 23 contributions.
The juxtaposition between his skill in the last quarter and the overall standard of the first three terms was the sort of thing you'd expect to see if a former AFL player is forced to play local reserves footy.
At the last change, fans were left wishing the much talked about Friday night double header was instead on Thursday to give them another footy game to tune into, so ugly was the contest.
Daicos, who won the Richard Pratt Medal in the Peter Mac Cup game, ensured everyone got something for investing their time and he had cause for celebration after 100 games glittered with accolades - and littered with some near misses too.
We've outlined 10 of his best moments from a dazzling last quarter.
10First possession
For the third time in a matter of minutes, Oscar Steene hit it straight down Nick Daicos' throat at the centre stoppage.
Facing away from his goal face, he handballed backwards to Jack Crisp who launched it inside 50.
This was a rare one which didn't result in a score, but with the Magpies seven points up by this stage, his clean contested possession helped the Pies go forward again and denied the usually contest-strong Blues from hitting straight back and getting any momentum.
