AFL Grand Final
The AFL grand final will bring about 37 million dollars into Melbourne and it's a real case of East meets West in the middle. The Melbourne crowd turned out in full force to welcome the players and they were really taken aback and pleased. Australia has gone back to loving its football and people are unashamedly watching all the football they can get because...it lifts their spirits and it's part of who we are. It'll be a great match. So, who will win? The West Coast Eagles or the Sydney Swans?? A lot of people are backing Sydney because it hasn't won for 72 years!!! The Eagles showed themselves to be a great team last week, though. Around here people have been pottering and getting newspapers and munchies in, a nice lunch and a big family day. At 2.35pm I would expect most of us will be tuned to our sets. Saturday afternoon always used to be the footie.
