Storm dont get ANYTHING from the NRL (or media) and we're still going along pretty well if you ask me. (premiership in second year is pretty good..)

Like i said.. NRL dont give the Storm anything.

News limited arnt the NRL.

Im not trying to be sour grapes, and i believe Sydney and Brisbane need the extra money so AFL can grow... just wanted to point that out, that Storm dont get any extra $$$ from the NRL.


Back on AFL. Congrats Swannies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Can anyone think of a better Grand Final. I know the 89' one was good, but this was better in my opinion. So many twists and turns and no-one knew the result till the last kick of the game. Sensational!

The standard of the game was a hell of a lot higher in 1989, but this was tight throughout.

Fab game.

There's still a footy club there. Did Delta come out during the presentation at all? She's a friend of Jude Bolton's plus a huge Swans fan(her brother Trent is a future Swans player). 72 years is a very long time between drinks.

Western Australian Premier Geoff Gallop has put WA's state pride on the line in a bet with his New South Wales counterpart for tomorrow's AFL grand final.

Dr Gallop has wagered with the New South Wales Premier Morris Iemma that if West Coast win, the team's flag will be flown on top of the Sydney Harbour Bridge.

But if the Swans win, their flag will be flown on top of WA's Parliament house.

Dr Gallop is in Melbourne for the game and says he is confident the Eagles can win.

"You never know on the day of course, but I think they've got momentum and I believe that Sydney have had a harder road to the final and our form's been improving in the last two weeks, so I'm quietly confident that we can take it off," he said.
where have I heard that before?

GO THE SWANNIES!!

Man that game was intense. I actually believed we lost it there when we fell 10 ponts behind in the last quarter, with all the momentum with the Eagles and Dean Cox killing us with the hit outs.

But it was a great comeback and Buchanan really lifted in the last quarter.

And what a great mark by Barry... that was simply stunning.

To celebrate me and my mates ran out to the streets screaming, only to find noone else had done the same.. :oops:

One of the neighbours came out and thought someone died because of all the noise and fuss we were making.

Chris Judd deserved the Norm Smith Medal, he was simply too good for his markers throughout the match... Buchanan is all i can remember
