Great game.
Malceski won best afield, kicking two sensational goals in the last to seal it with belconnen only 8 points down (he'd be a big chance for the gf id say)
ACTAFL going from strength to strength! :)

Were Belconnen a real chance if they had kicked straighter (they had more scoring shots)?

Seems that way, i only caught the second half though so not sure.
They were really coming when only 8 pts down early in the last but then Mal stepped up and sealed it !

Definate chance if they'd kicked some. And if that mark had been paid with 6 to go in the last quarter. Would have made it a goal the difference with all the run Belconnen's way.
Saying that though, Swans basically just did enough to win. Would have been nice if they'd shown at least a BIT of emotion after the win though.

Good crowd of 3,500 thats about 1,500 more than last year.
Great spectacle, hard and tough too. I can't believe Brock Weston wasn't payed the mark with 5or6 on the clock, that included with Illets sitter that he missed as well as 2 other misses, the maggies could have won in the last 5mins.
Good to see Wagga win the U18's and Ainslie win the 2nds. Great to have 6 different clubs represented on GF day.
