While we are at it Allen - When are we going to have an AFL medal for Fairest and Best rather than a VFL medal?

I don't disagree, but I can't see it happening in my time, it's like the Aussie Rules GF comes home to it's 'State of Origin', with the now established concession of having Prelim/ Semi/ Qual/ Elim home Finals for the Top 8...

Well it's about to start... and after such a entertaining Finals Series, along with our AFL Tipsters being so evenly split on a GF Winner, let me say, (with a wink and a nudge,) to those who feel it's too VIC-centric, today's AFL 2024 GRAND FINAL VICTORS will either be South Melbourne, (a.k.a., Sydney Swans,) or Fitzroy (a.k.a., Brisbane Lions,) i.e., two former, none-too-successful VICTORIAN Teams relocated interstate to build the code outside of Melbourne...

Clearly, the Sydney Swans only took to the MCG today so the Brisbane Lions could show how good they were...!!! CONGRATULATIONS TO THE BRISBANE LIONS... And here's your AFL ROUND #28 GRAND FINAL RESULTS BOARD... The AFL Round #01 Selection Board follows in 2025..! ............................. Paying homage to all of our successful Australian Olympians this year, I've stolen their Medals to create the rewards for our Top Tipsters... ............................................................... ...with the usual exception of the winner of our Wooden Spoon Award, of course, which for AFL Season 2024, goes to Mike 'Pony' Moore...!!! ............................................................ Finally, thanks to every one of you Tipsters for keeping me sane in what has been an exciting 2024 AFL Season, I hope you'll join me in 2025...!

Thank you... and thank you Fraddy, and thanks also for your participation...!!! ...................................... BTW, check out the 'merch', looks like a MAGA rally, I'm betting the NRL won't be able to match that at their Grand Final next week...!!! ...................................................................... ...and seriously, AFL has GOT to be more visually spectacular than Thugby League...! ...........................................................

For a Grand Final, that was certainly a flogging and a half............

Always thought that the competing Grand Final teams were the most closely matched but the score suggests one team was not there for the first half......
