And Then There Were Four
Geelong Cats, rebounding from defeat , at the hands of the Saints, put an end to the Purple Haze , on Friday night. The westerners , ( Freo ) riding into town, fell at the hands of the easterners, at the shrine of AFL football , the MCG , in front of many imported fans .
Similiarily , the dogged Swans, were ground down by the relentless Doggies, on saturday night at the ” G .
Retro Footscray
Julia , and 40,000 barking doggies fans, cheered their battle scarred warriors to victory .
Both the interstaters , were seen off by the Vics with a sniff of victory for a local Flag , they have set tilt at the Holy Grail of the AFL , the 2010 Premiership Cup .
66' revisited for Saints ?
The big Cats take on the might of the Magpies, on Friday night .
In a sense of deja vu ” , the Saints battle it out with the Bulldogs , on Saturday night , at the MCG.
Both Games, promise much .
The AFL, is delighted with this Finals Series, which has provided much for fans , all wearing their football jumpers , jerseys , guernseys, willing their team to victory.
Geelong and Collingwood , worthy combatants in a do or die Final .
St Kilda and Western Bulldogs ( aka Footscray ), both teams plaqued with a lack of Finals success , are sentimental favourites in many hearts .
Who will succeed? There won’t be a man left standing , nor a dry eye in the house, on the conclusion of both games.
May the best teams win !
Can Collingwood win the ultimate prize ?
