27th September 05 AFL Grand Final 2005

This weekend I watched my first AFL (Australian Football League) game which was the Final.  Instead of having a league they have a ladder with the two teams playing in a final game for the Championship.

I watched it at an AFL party , where a friend from work had hired out the Melbourne Soccer Club and put on a big screen and food to watch the match.  Prior to the game , being a soccer club and AFL final day what else to play before the game but Gaelic Football.

I enjoyed the game and was only a few points off guessing the correct margin which I was very impressed with as I was an AFL virgin.  Sydney Swans won it after 72 years so it was overdue. This weekend I have a charity ball at the Melborne Aquarium so that should be fun.



  1. RED AND WHITE!!! UGH

  2. i agree, everyone was supporting Sydney as they used to be a Melbourne Team but I kept saying , as they wore red I just could not support them so I went with Perth who nearly snatched it at the end.

  3. Good For you!!
