It might not be our game day but it is the Grand Final for season 2017
I'm hoping for a tight, competitive, close and exciting game and would like to see the Tigers get over the line.
In an interesting article on abc.net.au today it says
"Adelaide, Richmond to make AFL grand final history, with no players having previous experience.
For 118 years of VFL/AFL football there has been a constant thread linking each grand final to the year before.
That thread will be broken tomorrow, with not a single player of the 44 who take the field for the Crows and Tigers having played in a grand final previously.
The only other time that has happened was in the first-ever VFL grand final of 1898, where by definition no-one had previous experience.
The key here is the fact Adelaide is playing in its first grand final in 19 years, while Richmond last made the big game in 1982."
Good luck to both teams
Go Tigers!
