What a great day of football for both AFL and NRL codes. The Swans snatched a sensationally close AFL grand final win and Wests Tigers beat the St George Dragons to advance to the NRL grand final.
What really made it a great day to be in front of a TV screen (or actually at the games, for those lucky few who were able to get tickets and/or travel to the game) was the sheer intensity of both matches. The final quarter of the AFL grand final was particularly nail biting, but led to a well deserved victory for the Swans in the end. Good stuff. Now, bring on the summer of cricket!
