I'd give it a go if you didn't get fined $8,000 or whatever ridiculous amount it is these days for going on the field That call in particular still grates me - especially as plenty of fairypuppies fans swear black and blue that there was nothing wrong with what happened. Maybe under the 'AFL umpiring rules - GF 2016 edition', but certainly not under the interpretation in place for the rest of the season.
"You get the feeling that like Monty Python's Black Knight, the Swans would regard amputation as merely a flesh wound."
And of course, there was Hannebery being taken with a slide in the final quarter. Something the Bulldog player* may not have attempted, if they were being pinged for sliding earlier in the game.
* Not sure who it was, since I've tried to watch the replay, but I've never got past the third quarter.

Is going down the race classed as the field?

Special set of rules prevailed on GF day. Sliding into the legs and injured a player was 100% Ok on GF day. Also noticed that the AFL covered up the drug culture on the west coast eagle during 2005/2006 seasons. Yes the only side capable of giving the Swans a run for their money in those years was West coast and drug rules were completely ignored. Coincidence ? Maybe not if past experiences are anything to go by. As I said, they will do everything to stop Swans from winning the cup.
The Dogs won the flag from 7th last year. They should do it more easily this year from top four. It is up to the Swans and Giants to find the way to prevent it.
The Dogs had 12 players who averaged 7.5 or more contested possessions.
I thought the Swans owned this stat, but they only had 6.
It's the Dogs flag to lose.
Ha! As he clings tightly to the cup.
"We will put our hand up and say a couple of balls were thrown in the Grand Final that should have been paid as throws," Beveridge told Fox Sports on Wednesday.
