Well, the Sydney Swans won the grand final. The little town in Ireland will be so pleased with their player and they watched the whole match and supported the team. That was great. But the match...boy, how exciting was that? At half time the Eagles looked like they were out of it, but they can certainly play when the chips are down. Neither side gave up and the match was exhilarating. The low scores in the end were a credit to both sides getting in there and defending their goals. It was magical and the crowd just kept going off. I feel for the Eagles because they didn't lose by much and they played a great game. The Swans, originally, South Melbourne, haven't won a premiership since 1933, so it was a well deserved win , in many ways, because the team just played so well and just steadied itself into the lead by its use of skill. Adelaide was silent during the match. It was such a cliffhanger. When you see football played at that level you have to admire the grit, fitness and commitment of the players because both teams just ran and ran for 2 hours. In my book, cliché as it is, there were no losers.
