Norm - Mitchell
First goal - Hill (either)
Highlight - Buddy announces he's off to the Giants on the dais.
In a side note, Freo have apparently opted to wear their white jumper. Stupid, they actually had the option and purple doesn't clash!

From what I understand they refused to wear the purple jumper with the white shorts which they apparently had to wear. Surely the AFL could have let them wear purple shorts. Could not get two more opposite colour schemes than the Hawks and Dockers..

First Goal - Ballantyne
Highlight - Ballantyne
With all the Ballantyne references I thought of Uncle Doug on World Of Sport. But where is the Patra orange juice and the Trusty dog food?

Ellen-Keating medal for spud who has a good game: Clarke
First goal: Walters
Highlight: both sets of supporters complaining about the umpiring of Nicholls

First goal: Ballantine
Highlight: half time brawl. There’s always a brawl.
please be a massive brawl.

saturday at lunch with Mrs ivan before going to the game a tipped a score line of 77 - 63 to hawthorn, pitty i didn't post it here.
Winner: Hawks
Margin - 52 points
Normie - Birchall
First Goal - Gunston
Highlight - Mitchell uncharacteristically smacking Crowley in the mouth
I'm pretty sure Mitchell's "uncharacteristically" been reported in 2 or 3 finals. Got weeks after the 08 grannie, he just went in elbows first, to outright snipe a few Cats. Getting a bit Judd like.
Winner: Dawks
Margin: 15 points
Norm Smith: Hodge
First Goal: Roughead
Memorable Highlight: streaker
I forgot about this. I got the winner and margin spot on, didn't get the NS right though.
I got winner and first goal.
Gunston was paying 9/1, so put a wuss bet on ($10) and won.
