GA Russell Posted September 23, 2022 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2022 Well, I forgot to post the final score. The second half was all Melbourne, and they won 21.14 (140) to 10.6 (66). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2021_AFL_Grand_Final. https://www.foxsports.com.au/afl/afl-grand-final-2021-melbourne-demons-vs-western-bulldogs-live-updates-score-start-time-video-stream-blog/news-story/bc1bb66f7efccb9d3eac5aa333669230 This was Melbourne's first premiership since 1964, when the Beatles' current US album was Something New. ***** This year's Grand Final is tomorrow night (US time), starting around midnight eastern time. The Geelong Cats will face the Sydney Swans. I'm rooting for the Cats because I always root for the pre-1990 VFL clubs. I expect the link from Sept. 25 last year will be good again.

GA Russell Posted September 28, 2023 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2023 This year's Grand Final will be this Saturday afternoon, starting at 2:30 pm local time. That is 12:30 am US eastern time, and 9:30 pm Friday US pacific time. The Collingwood Magpies will face the Brisbane Lions. I don't root for the new clubs, so I will be pulling for the Pies. You can watch the game here: https://7plus.com.au/where-to-watch-the-afl-grand-final I'm assuming that the radio links will be the same as last year.

GA Russell Posted September 27 Author Report Share Posted September 27 Time to catch up! Collingwood won last year 90-86. The announcer said over and over, "This is one of the greatest Grand Finals ever!" Collingwood had a half-goal lead. They would score a goal, and then Brisbane would promptly score its own to maintain the small deficit. Really something. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2023_AFL_Grand_Final ***** This year's game is TONIGHT!!!!! The Brisbane Lions will return to face the Sydney Swans. The game will start at 2:30 pm Saturday Melbourne time, which is to say 9:30 pm Friday pacific time, and 12:30 am eastern time. I expect that the audio link from 2022 above will be good. If not, I will post a good link if I can find one. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_AFL_Grand_Final Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GA Russell Posted September 28 Author Report Share Posted September 28 Sydney finished the regular season in first place, and Brisbane in fifth place. Sydney led by two goals for a few minutes in the first quarter, but since then it has been all Brisbane. Brisbane led 27-19 after the first quarter, and an incredible 73-27 at halftime.

GA Russell Posted September 28 Author Report Share Posted September 28 After three... Brisbane - 16.11.107 Sydney - 5.4.34 You may recall that two years ago, Geelong beat Sydney 133-52. I don't know what Sydney's problem is, but they don't show up for the Grand Final. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GA Russell Posted September 28 Author Report Share Posted September 28 Final... Brisbane - 18.12.120 Sydney - 9.6.60 To sum it up, Brisbane scored seven goals in the second quarter, and that was that. Brisbane won three in a row 2001 - 2003, but hadn't won since. Congratulations Brisbane! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
