Any idea what the story is with parking? Is parking free?

Cheer,

No idea I need to try and find a place to park- heading over there now.

Was great fun. Everyone of course in great spirits. The players all looked absolutely scattered. Hilarious hearing them trying to speak.

And didnt Leo make sure everyone knew about his mark!

Got some great pics, one of each of them as they came up on the stage.

GO THE BLOODS

Was really good fun, they ended up turning up at 2.30pm, just after they replayed the match on the big screen and some highlights of the year - great way to cap off a crazy weekend of flights, premierships and crazy behaviour

how good was the last quarter on the big screen!!

They had a live band there playing in the lead-up and yeah, the guys coming through with the premiership cup was unreal.

In Roosy's words: "Thank you for all the people who supported us through the late 80's and 90's. There's probably more people here to day than the numbers that went to those games"

I'm not much of a crowd counter, but I reckon it was about 5,000. Most of the Ladies and Members were full, and there were a heap out on the ground itself.

i just saw it on tv and it looked bloody brilliant
the rendition of cheer cheer was spine tingling stuff

It was a fantastic arvo at the SCG - a perfect way to finish of the most amazing football finals series I have ever experienced.

[gossipcom]

A few thousand turned up - depending on which news report that ranged from a thousand thru to ten thousand (I think between the VIC/NSW ones combination that got that figure).

Got hold of a few players for autographs which was good - though some disappeared so quickly there was no chance in hell of capturing them.

When I spoke to NOG I said to him how does it feel being an Ablett with one of them and he's like well one of my uncles has a premiership medal

At one point I didn't think I'd get my pen back from Magic - he walked 300 metres with it and the beer bottle in the others.

Great day - shall order the dvd and premiers shirt from the Swans Shop this week.

[The Undertaker]

I attended,

It was great.

It was huge happy feeling at the ground this arvo and rightly so!lol.Good crowd and great to see the players and Roosy with the Trophy!

Ryan O'Keefe never got anywhere near the autograph line. He could barely walk and probably decided not to challenge himself with holding a pen.
