Sorry, usually cold cans available from under the stand. If Belconnen Footy Club run the bar it is usually VB only but given it is a grand final we might be able to expect them to splash out a little. Maybe some cask white wine and some exotic beers like Tooheys Dry or Carlton Cold.

Ahah - everyone said we'd win by 17. They just had the wrong game.

Here's to making it a double!!!

Got there late (15 min mark qtr 2) and did not stay for the medals. Malceski broke it open with 2 goals in the first 5 mins of qtr 4. First after 4 bounces running through the middle, second was a great snap. Probaby enough to give him BOG though Schaubs was t'riffic.

Vogels hurt his hip, was on he bench when we goit there and staryed there. J McV has what looked a lot like a broken leg. Malceski finishe don the bench with a thigh/hamstring? problem.

Was a bruising encounter, a very good match, and a well earned victory to the boys.

Schauble is probably the front runner then, if Vogels , McVeigh and Malceski are injured

He looked fine after the game.

Was also a deserving Alex Jesaulenko medalist.

Umpiring was of a 'reserve' quality, if you think that the AFL is over the top with being pinged for holding the ball, you'd be amazed by this lot.

If anyone wants some (digital) photos for a review I can email some through. PM me.

Got some good shots of the whole team with the trophy.

One down, one to go!

Heath James and Powell also came off injured, and Guy Campbell seemed to have something wrong with his sternum at one stage.
Malceski though was awesome, a quick rub of some "special" cream on to his groin area seemed to do the trick, and was highly entertaining for me.
He broke through from half back at one stage to go all the way and score a super goal, total legend

Malceski = next swans legend...you heard it here first!

Happens a bit, sadly.

Did you notice who put in on his chest from 40m away with a bullet like pass to set him on his way?

How did the rookies go? Think any of them are a chance to be promoted come seasons end?

Looks like Grundy booked himself a spot on the Senior List.

Here are the reports from the Canberra Times and sydneyswans.com.au with news on the injuries.

Interesting to note that Malceski is the reserves captain.
