Only being 11 years old at the time in 2007 I didn't watch heaps of games (it probably wasn't until 2009/2010 until I started watching full games), all I cared about was that Geelong won and that David Wojcinski played well!
But either way Dad was committed to getting tickets for the 2 of us to the Grand Final as soon as we won the Prelim. We were very lucky (or unlucky depending on how you look at it haha) that we had family friends who were Port Adelaide members and had 2 tickets at the very top of the MCG with lots of other Port supporters, and those family friends couldn't make the game so offered us their tickets.
To be honest I can't remember a whole lot of the game live (have obviously watched it plenty of times since) being 11 + sitting so high up and trying to see which players were which, just as long as Wojcinski was doing well I actually remember he didn't start well at all giving away at least 2 free kicks in the first few minutes which included a free kick to Warren Tredrea about 10m out from their goal.
We'd brought a whole block of chocolate to the game which I didn't realise how fast I was going through it and I'd ate the whole thing by 3QT.
The Port supporters around us were funny, apparently it was the umpires fault they were losing by 100 f***ing points lol
An absolute domination. Final siren went and just singing "We are Geelong, the Greatest Team of All" over and over!
P.S - While lots of Cats supporters would've been sick after all the alcohol they drunk, I woke up around 1am to be sick after all the chocolate I had
