I`m celebrating like it`s 1996

And Camel, it was more the Swans youngsters run I think. They wanted the ball, got it and ran like bats out of hell.

haha Camel...

Good on Sydney. I was hoping the Saints would get through, but now I want Sydney to win the flag. Tomorrow's game will be a cracker, and then we have the Grand Final. Can't wait!

Sydney were on absolute fire in that last quarter. Everyone stood up. O'Keefe was magnificent all game, Schneider lifted the whole team and Barry Hall was great considering the pressure he was under. And Barry Hall may be the poster boy and official captain of that team, but Brett Kirk is the leader. Make no mistake about that. What a champion, robbed of an All-Australian spot IMO.

How good was Dal Santo in the first half? He was brilliant, as was Hughton. Maguire didn't look up to it against Hall, he definitely wasn't 100%, and Thomas' move to bring Gehrig down back to be on Hall was utterly stupid, but entertaining to watch because I wanted to see the two big boys battle it out

Well done Sydney, truly magnificent finals series so far.

When I went to watch the Swans train when they were here, I thought it was pretty clear that Barry Hall is the true leader of the team. He was training the hardest, the only one firing them up, and they followed whatever he did. But Kirk would be just as good.

Swannnnnnies!

Im off to the GF on Thursday (plus a breakfast and dinner).

Travelling with 3 WC fans so I hope they get up tomorrow so all will have interest.

 

[Jono]

Yeah I'm going to the grand final plus the pre-breakfast as well.

I'll be a pretty neutral fan, though will quietly want the Swans to get up.

haha Camel...

That was actually a nickname of mine way back.....
In a nice way, not insulting way

Interesting start. Eagles flooding heavily to stop the crows scoring with the breeze.

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

Adelaide's skills surprisingly lacking, lots of costly errors and poor decision making. Scores level at quarter time, 2.2 apiece.

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

Eagles a goal clear at half-time. Pretty decent result for the Crows as they had the worst of the second quarter by a long way. A few times in the last few weeks Adelaide has come out at the start of the third and pulled away, so it's still an interesting game, but the Eagles definately looking like a winning team.

 

[Buddhmaster]

Looks like an Eagles Swans Grand Final. Will be a tough week at school for me

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

Wow, the Crows got absolutely smashed that term. It's a bit disappointing that they've fallen apart at a key point twice in this finals series, looks like the Eagles will win comfortably. Amazing performances from Judd, Kerr and Selwood today. McLeod's had an absolute shocker.

Only 15 points down now after Hentschel's goal. Don't you Crows fans wish you had someone that could kick straight down there? Where's Darren Jarman? Crows have dominated this quarter!

Yeah. Welsh is a good kick but has had a quiet game. Those four behinds to start the term are looking costly now, with 15 inside 50s for the quarter and 5 minutes to go. Ahh well.

West Coast v Sydney in the Grand Final

Hopefully Swans will win

 

[Jono]

Who thinks Barry Hall will be rubbed out?

 

[King_Ponting]

[Jono]

I wanted a Gehrig vs. Hall brawl last night.

 

[Linda]
