robertoart Posted September 23, 2013 Report Share Posted September 23, 2013 Your team has made it to the Grand FInal once more GA. You sure picked a good team to support from such a distance. Should be a cracker of a game again this year. Fremantle are playing in their first Grand Final ever. They joined the AFL about twenty years ago I think? Really looking forward to this years game. I will probably go for the Hawks. Hope you can get to see it or listen again this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indestructible! Posted September 28, 2013 Report Share Posted September 28, 2013 Thanks GA! Although I like the Hawks, I'm cheering for the Dockers this time around... it's always nice to see someone win it for their very first time.

GA Russell Posted September 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2013 Halftime... Hawthorn....5.5.35 Freemantle....1.6.12 Freemantle has played very poorly, and scored only one goal in the first half. You can't win like that.

GA Russell Posted September 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2013 After three quarters... Hawthorn....8.8.56 Freemantle...6.10.46 The first five minutes of the third quarter belonged to Freemantle, and they nearly tied the game. Hawthorn regained its form after that, and they were fairly even from that point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GA Russell Posted September 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2013 Hawthorn wins! Final score... Hawthorn...11.11.77 Freemantle...8.14.62 Hawthorn took a big lead in the fourth quarter (about 30 points), but Freemantle closed furiously until Hawthorn thwarted their comeback in the last few minutes.

GA Russell Posted September 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2014 It appears that there is no free stream of TV or radio of the game. It's now halftime, and Hawthorn is leading 5.5, 11.9 (75) to Sydney's 2.3, 5.3 (33). I can't see Sydney coming back.

GA Russell Posted October 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2015 I have found the radio broadcast link:http://www.afl.com.au/match-centre/2015/27/haw-v-wceIn the upper center, you will see a small reddish brown area which says "listen live."That will give you a pop up on the left with your choice of radio stations. I usually listen to 3AW every year, but if you are rooting for the West Coast Eagles, you might want to choose another station.The game will start in just a few minutes.

It's gonna be a great game. The first time The Western Bulldogs (Footscray) have made a Grand Final in 60 years. Many old faithful supporters will finally get to see their team play off in the big one. The whole of Australia who doesn't barack for The Swans will be cheering 'The Doggies' on. You will have to be an honorary Bulldogs supporter tomorrow mate Edited September 28, 2016 by robertoart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
