home goodbye I see our land abounds in all Beauty rich and in his and and of s and [Music] a mighty Roar goes around the scg as we prepare for this qualifying final the Giants Taking on the mining Premier the Sydney Swans Jason duni this is what finals footy is about two big teams going out at first SP in the preand it is it's exciting times you've already picked up one conspiracy theory when we're watching The Anthem the players link arms they put arms around each other's shoulder but Steven Canelo didn't put his left arm around the shoulder of Toby green he kept it down by his side so we keep an eye on his shoulder he's just protecting and I think he'll be okay they're not taking big risks in a game like this but these are two of the best teams in the comp and they're going to go at it and a home prelim on the line it's a massive opportunity for these two sides you can see the finals history have spoken about it although Sydney's had the advantage this year Giants have a good record of the scg and they' played a couple of Bel to say we got no idea what is going to happen what I think we do now is this will be the best game of the weekend this will be the close one two teams Playing for Keeps can't wait this will be physical the gloves come off when these two play they'll be spoted early they'll come off the line they'll be looking to make contact body on body this will be the elevated ferocity of the finals uh first finals week I should say I'm looking forward to seeing the Midfield go head tohe is it going to be B Briggs or Brody Grundy who sets their team on the path accuracy in front of goal here as well teams have put themselves under pressure by not taking the opportunities when they present they can be so hard to come by this is going to be a beauty and you want to take those opportunities early put scoreboard pressure on the opposition okay thanks Toby green has won the toss and game on Joey and two of the best captains in the league as well they do it differently Mills will probably play behind the ball he's that c the calm influence it'll steady the ship where Toby we know he got that that match winning ability the fire in the eye where if they needs something that he can always step up and and he'll he'll lead the ship down in that forward line but I'm also looking forward to Tom Green I think he you know he's an important player mentioned the clearance and contest game he's built he's built the finals Tom Green and I think that you know he's he's confident in his own ability he's had a trivic season he didn't make the all Australian score but he's a player that I think will have a big influence in this game spoke about that confidence in himself aspiring to be the best player in the competition you love hearing that from one of your stars and he'll drag some of his teammates along with him look at those rankings this guy is just a ball magnet he's a beast around the ball and he brings others into it and it's started already Canelo doesn't want to know about he's looking out that shoulder sah yeah Tommy patley knows he gone straight for him kingy Brent Daniel someone we haven't touched on and we need to because he is a star of this Giants lineup yeah he is there stars everywhere let's be honest they want to play at speed the Giants when they get the ball and get going they want to make this spot for this is going to be on today J this is great what we wanted to see T green his muscle around let's go spot fires breaking out already and the first BS hasn't even happened yet Ramy goes to Toby green this is huge a qualifying final Sydney and the gws fs they don't like each other and they both want that home freeling final the two big boys Grundy and Briggs neither got clean possession Briggs did well he scrambles the first kick forward the lizard Blakey involved toy an a one to H he ran through Isaac coming charging out at Haywood picked it up got it back to Warner some great jants pressure early Jones's kick hacked forward melin read it really well and then took on the tackle to Daniels who might be a bit sore post that tackle held up R bottom Let It Go a long time and has been rewarded a game tackle from the Giants and the Young Gun Captain's got it Jordan strike to Whitfield you can see Whitfield trying to get round the back there Jordan not giving him an inch short to himberg Isaac coming C and hamstring issues right throughout the year but back into this big final he taking some time there's a lot of defensive num back for Sydney Mills is going to launch that at they probably could have taken the mark But the early final was pressure Toby involved wrapped up it's interesting to see that very firstent of bouns R and BRS both just standing next to each other trying to wrestle come here Toby great fast attack on the footy as it always is but they're going to wrestle each other all day long Kier Briggs and broy Grandy they're going to both try and use their strength in those contest I don't know if there's going to be much jumping from either of them all the play in the opening minute in the gws half of the ground can they manufacture something from this stoppage gruny work to the front back towards the boundary line with a conservative tap green to Whitfield but no space to work in James Jordan has the job alongside him as predicted gentlemen and his numbers against Loy Whitfield in recent times been outstanding they have rampy pass the job on Toby green so they do it again Briggs gets to the front tries to lay it down Heeney had it stripped Grundy tried to flip it here's Heeney again Haywood look to slap it on giant set up behind the football Buckley Kelly Iden opens up the forward 50 Here Comes got a n from mcart andai pays the mark good early win for Tom mccarton in one onone swans are away through mules beautiful pass to Luke Parker who takes it cleanly sideways one to CH Warner setting this up trying to orchestrate a switch that could end up in Nick Blake's hands but Giants have defended it really well so instead they looking for a Marti mdal his hand The rollsroyce Flicks it back to Parker robot him in a little bit of a onew and then Parker to the goal Square big Collision himberg colliding he was SW score Logan McDonald SL to get up but be okay good contest there by Haywood on Sam Taylor got that ball to ground gave them a chance to have a shot at goal Windfield pops the kick to Kahan then leak up he receives it back punches the hand B to coming step between a couple or try to bottom and that's the beauty of BR bottom Jason he's a two-way midfielder he does all of the hard work great tackle drives it inside 50 McDonald the target plenty of support for himberg and they work it to the line it's a great point you make for CH because we red about hey Gordon Warner they can do what they do because of robot and the work that he does running both ways and J Jordan as [Applause] well Rian Briggs at the other end of the ground can Sydney manufacture something here shallo throw in neither R got anywhere near it green popped a hand ball Cunningham got across slapped it to Lloyd nowhere for Blakey to go so he feeds it on Parker they keep it moving Iden came over the top himberg wins it feeds it to Jones Iden good hands green and out they go Canelo hits up Hogan that's the Giants that is 101 Giants footy there does Jesse wind up for 55 he does he gives it a ride and kicks the opening goal of the qualifying [Applause] final Jesse Hogan first man to win a rising star and a Coleman Middle kicks the opener this afternoon with a long range bomb this is Giants footy from congestion look at those sharp hands just bang bang bang out to a runner and Jesse Hogan the forward craft there Richard brilliant he started out wide and led back in into the corridor and that that's why he's kicked 60 go 16 from the corridor he doesn't lead wide he positioned himself in the right place went back into the corridor see there he's kicked his 70th goal for the year but just his third from outside 50 Jesse Hogan you mentioned Rich he gets a lot of goals his positioning is perfect us nightmare to play on Jesse Hogan perfect start for the col medal Winer his opportunity the Qui patley he's been out for five weeks top of the square awkward one for the giant defense but they are so capable Connor ID tble though busted back open by the swans they trap it inside 50 Parker trying to sweep it back to robottom but Tom Green in the way awk could bounce for Cadman Toby picked up though by Lloyd jams it back inside 50 going away on the Giants do their precious good the Giants nine tackles already in this game rggs defensive rock me too it's a two on two on the wing Cadman tried to work Malak number it he got a fist on it sweeping onto it was Ward here they go with a run up the middle again Perryman to Whitfield he's run down from behind they get the turnover chance for the swans through Jordan kick gets over the back of the contest armadi versus Iden armadi will get their first Iden will working to the line just a ground level you can see you just got a split s a second to make a decision with the ball in hand those ones that can just take a leg extra moment and just execute Under Pressure it's going to be so important that was good by Cunningham wasn't it B just that chase down of Whitfield cuz as you said you've only got a second but it looked like Whitfield was out but Cunningham shut him down James Jordan will be very thankful for that one swans get a look at an inside 50 on the back of it Perman was well tackled Kelly's kick who's under some pressure Toby McMullen tried a little sneaky hand ball asking the question right angle out of bounds thank you bro K frenetic start to this final as you'd expect moment now just to reset for both teams watching here gruning Briggs to Men Mountain Head to Head Isaac H over the top couldn't get it out just watching Harry Cunningham work Brent Daniels over at this stoppage Brent Daniels trying to get up around he's got the roll on him Briggs tried to get the arms fre but hey finds the football nice step FL it the first time coming got in the second B is right you do not have any time to get rid of the footy at the moment that's just that next level of finals lingy yeah it's fantastic pink toor's half forward storming out with Blakey now they can Counterattack up the middle both teams prepar to be aggressive Grundy Blakey has some options Floren the run from Jordan open goal goes for it bounces it just misses I think it might have CIT the post it has and great that's the swans so they were able to intercept it half back and get it straight back through the corridor Le for Jordan to score on Midfield be enormous yeah that was almost identical to a highlight we showed in the pregame of Jordan getting off withfield when you make that right decision you can kick goals on your opponent Jack Buckley's got some space takes a bounce Glides down the wing through the hands of Toby Rab's got that match up Farms a hand B back to melin and this R showing some good composure to Logan McDonald James Jordan just always looking Corridor that's always the first look for Sydney Premiership player of the Melbourne football club cruited to the swan performed his role brilliantly eyed and happy to concede about his throwing Jud Bolton as we head boundary side any Breeze to either end no not a lot of ground level it was a bit swirly in the pregame it seems to died down a bit Jason team so aggressive up the middle aren't they just prepared to pull the trigger and hit the corridor here's patley from 48 floats it towards the pocket Parker will have a couple to beat good coverage shimberg Third Man across yeah they haven't had a one-on-one opportunity in that four line yet there's always Third Man in support in that Giants back 50 happily a couple early touches he's involved GW in the first few minutes and since then the swans have controlled the territory and gruny lock up again Road bottom against Green it's taken by Tom Green punes a kick out wide Canelo the Target off his fingers [Applause] out not a spare seat here at the scg for this brilliant for football this part of the world home PR final for the winner brings one that down Cal Ward play play on the 15 legend of the Giants footy Club Parker inside 50 the swans have been hammering some opportunities in the last few minutes Haywood couldn't trap it Loy Ash's handle goes back taken away though by Parker Lloyd top of the square Oly Flor launched at it ground he one he his pickup was Elite but fell into some pressure McMullen back there well tackled by a couple of swans well a high one can hear what the swans fans think about it but Toby McMullen in his first final showed some good composure yeah put his head over the foot he Isaac Heeney did the same thing too a few seconds earlier body lined the ball F contest oh what a grab from Hogan that is a genuine pack mark from 3 deep yeah led the competition in the hman away for contested marks and that's why unbelievable grab huge work great Hogan touched off the boot Tom Green was clean coming scrubs the kick awkward one for the Sydney defense getting there first was Keith might work for they can pop the hand ball Daniels has got a couple of options and he hits Toby [Applause] green so Daniels who received the ball after the Jesse Hogan KN so Hogan kicks it across to him he duffed the kick a little bit was actually touched but the moment he kicked it he was moving again and just was able to track the play end up in a really good spot to receive the hand ball and then he kicks it across to Toby green that's what they do really well kick and move straight away the Giants looking to link up again and they had the extra number they had the out number in their own for 50 then it's been good for two goals a game almost in a final 14 finals for 26 goals from 52 M pushes a Mills to Florence kick haah mlan on a searching lead in front of back to trying to massage their way through this zone of the Giants prepared to conceed some ground back to McCartney and just look at the Giants really now press up see if they can apply some more pressure and they force the kick long down the line the direction of McLean fisted away from mle but he's drawn a free kick play getting involved play playing in front gets the free kick come back around story in his own right overlooked in the 2017 and 2018 drafts have to go to South Australia to pursue his career and his c a really important piece of the puzzle for the swans too strong Bley didn't complete the mark though Florence kick was SM rochs back to Tom Green here's Toby rampy closes him down Le's a good tackle trapped him with a footy that is going to be a match up to sa rampy and T green so the Giants defense holding up eight inside 50s for Sydney they've only taken one Mark forward of Center the Sydney Swans Daniels worked hard forced golden to the line and that's where one of those tools you spoke about pre-match Amar McLean or Logan McDonald they're going to have to be a threat up the ground hit the logos the oldfashioned hit the logos and take some grabs just to pull one of those giants Defenders out of that formation ke and mle taking their turn in the Rock both at the same idea Daniels tackled by Cunningham green they look to force it forward Cunningham green involved again Fashions a kick pitches inside 50 over Roberts's head melin stormed out to meet it Jones against melin melin flips it out Keith gets rid of mle Daniels green towards the pocket Cadman got to the front on rampy another throw in she these contest that one all day Tom Green does he hunt the Ling six ground ball gets already seen in finals ground ball gets they are King if you can clean that area up Daniels with a right foot banana top of the square and mcal in the Box suat to defend it perfectly than guys thanks Jessie Roberts restart to Mills kick over the top to LY he's got a run up mcer ignores him goes a little deeper good option McDonald that run of mcer though it drew Buckley away from McDonald great run from mcer and now gets the benefit richo from 52 M kick not quite so good as the Run Taylor cuts it off kah hands hand ball showed it to Warner Ash got a hand in it was important mcer met him solidly Warner taken the ground Whitfield Taylor P had to wait popped a handall here goes the speed St Jones will want to light it up kick towards Hogan missed the Target and rampy can clear for Sydney the target he likes on the wing great contest and courage from C Ward their names and words that are synonymous C Ward's been doing that his whole career and that is a good contested Mark Toby McMullen plays on immediately short one to Finn Callahan and a couple of the Young Guns get involved oh Jee he's got a good leg he's probably got the distance hasn't he he's having a little bit of a look but now he's going to settle I think he likes his chances pick three in the 2021 draft in Kahan game number 49 for the Giants supremely talented young man sides just to set the kick up looking for Toby Jesse Hogan put the ball Jesse's got the first two goals of the game or has he I believe it's a tat behind we please make sure it was tou after it was kicked score review umpire's call is a touch behind please confirmed it was touched C review [Applause] onway been touched twice double banger must have been off the [Applause] bo I don't think it is think you're right complete looking this angle there's a gap between the ball and the players at all times decision on scoreboard the Colman Medal winner kicks off the final with the first two goals Jessy Hogan that is a great sign that first angle was an optical illusion goes to show you need a multiple angles I mean if that if you judged it off that first angle you would have sworn it was touching absolutely well done that's why we got the ark just check the kick at the last second then kelleran and just some Sydney Defenders almost standing around just assuming he was going to have a shot they were slow to react and Jesse Hogan the quickest great awareness great start by the common mdist they look a lot more dangerous in their for 50 the Giants at the moment 98 inside 50s to Sydney but the Giants were the only two goals Warner tries to explode off the back of the contest and ping will have none of it in fact he wins the football towards half forward and Callahan being a stand all that Matt Roberts can handle right now again he'll signal to have a shot but for a guy who's kick two six for the season that would be uh some sort of kick well we saw what he just did with one so surely the swans Defenders are going to expect it again might trick them and go for it as a wind up this time from the edge of the square he does big difference in the game is just how dangerous the giant are forward of Center they've taken six marks forward of Center a couple inside 50 down the other end the swans have had opportunities the same amount of inside 50s but to be honest haven't looked like marking it hesitation here for the lizard Nick blanky couple of casual bounces drives it down the wing clean and his name written on it robot in front and center Warner got through a tackle as he s and does but then ran into top he's been enormous early Josh Kelly on the nonpreferred dangerous spot Jesse Hogan out the back what on melin good pressure MCM Advantage Advantage has been paid D the kick found Lloyd at half back outside five bite off one through the corridor Haywood ran into the and it wasn't ideal at all and now they're under enormous pressure on the back of it the swans held up at half for for the giant SP pre bounce about the swans being sluggish starters TR by 13 points here just under seven to play in the opening turn Roberts Briggs lovely flick Kelly Whitfield was touched off his boot so Cunningham will have to continue manages to shake Jones and then hits the kick to Lloyd at ground level you can really see the Giants chain out by hand the really slick hands at the moment they've been able to break through and get some better looks going forward DW Bolton boundary side one kick down the line himberg bounce over the back almost kept alive Drew from an inside forward 50 perspective for Sydney what's not working yeah times have been forced up the ground they haven't had a lot to kick to at times but it's just been the pressure at the at the cold F the Giants have brought that heat early in this final so much of that is starting with Tom Green he's getting that chain of hand balls going so I reckon John Longmire and his coaching staff have got a decision to make about what they do with Jordan if they stick with Whitfield or perhaps look at stopping it at the source and shutting down Tom Green's influence cuz at the moment he's pretty dominant around the stoppages it's so hard to stop though he's so big and strong Tom Green at 11 disposals already Tom Green most On The Ground by some margin swamp's desperate to find a way to score here they've held up locky Ash thank you this way I'm going this way guys here is Tom greenan ceks bra tracking it again disposal number 12 got it back to coming Keith launched at it did well with f to Daniels this is where they get rolling they're incredibly hard to stop but they turned it over nice here Roberts thr an open goal Square drives it long and [Applause] misses eight contested possessions for Tom Green I don't know what the record is in the game but he's on target I would suggest and they're plus 11 at the moment gws wiing it on the inside then getting it to the outside by hand Iden you you take back to [Applause] himberg to the wing with a pitch in front of ke who tries to turn McCart around and does can now go deep inside 50 Hogan gets to the front strong hands melin got too worried about Hogan then when that ball was in the air melin was in front he should have just played the ball on its merits but because this guy's the common medalist in an all St and he got too worried about where Hogan was and that allowed Hogan to slip into the front and when he gets in front as said before he's leading in tested Mark Player in the competition accuracy there 7125 for the year never kick three against the swans steps around that one's going to drop short that'll frustrate Adam Kingsley swans get an uncontested Mark in their defensive goal Square it's Callum [Applause] Mills mes that to M and they had mlan at the back the hand was a little bit pedestrian in the end for Cunningham and now Warner who try and bust through a Kelly tackle melin followed up nicely kick to the one-on-one Taylor and mle so hard to play against Taylor Marty got rid of Buckley getting back Perman and Marty trying to keep it alive he got a fresh air swing and it went through for another swans behind like the signal okay move out she got one kick for Chad Warner and one kick for Errol Gordon G averaging 27 a game this season PR game get his record incredible against twws can't get into the game yet Grundy belts it back in the maconi direction committing the body was Haywood tidy pick up Perryman down the line for mcmull now he's got coming searching to half forward Green in the middle of that pack great job from Keith to just split the pack the process gives away the free kick he skitt all those swans Defenders and they were out kick against Loy Keef Mills back to the wing Grundy gathers just inside the line final 3 and A2 minutes of the opening turn swarms never held goalless in an opening quarter against gws but 3 minutes to rectify that Amari provided the option barckley at the back Kahan has been busy in this opening turn another searching kick to half forward mccarten versus Hogan Hogan forced a contest Cadman there Roberts is surrounded needs to clear the Zone can't ping now to Hogan pops it inside multiple options green so strong through the body straightens up and misses she big is getting more numbers to the contest at the moment he was a massive outnumber at half for there wasn't it rich clean it up and then he called J the strength through the hips of green to Shake The Tackle we're all going for our pens to just put that one in the book he doesn't miss those like the sw's slightly rattled at the moment Warner this is what we've seen so much of takes it bounce backs himself in but Rand free kick will work Haywood to he go square is open tried to step Whitfield Whitfield did well Florida patley kept his feet in his bured his way back in patley but the Giants defense are so hard to get through bounces out Rob bottom bending it can he kick that first oh they needed that and Rob bottom delivered [Applause] it that was huge you can't underill how important that is a steadying go to James Ro bom means a lot Richard and the Toby Miss down the other end Toby never misses those running in he didn't have any pressure on from 20 missed and Ro bottom kicks a huge goal so that is a a big big turnaround on the scoreboard there it wasn't pretty by the swans but they just kept surging It Forward numbers at the contest we just spoke about the fact that Giants were getting great numbers at the contest repeat effort repeat effort coming back to the ball and then in the work rate and class of robot to finish with a goal that's how they've got to get themselves rolling they're getting smacked in contested possessions at the moment the swans that could be the lift they needed Darcy Jones about to come off after that contact with Hayden McAn he took his helmet straight off he's just clutching at his chest or ribs at this point and also looking at leis mikin well who was also off for the swans he had that heavy contact where Callum Mills received the free kick finals can change in moments we had two Toby at one end James R Bott him at the other and suddenly it's a goal the difference holding twws receive the free kick as Jones receives assessment petley an interest in his services for 2025 and why not worked hard to get himself on the NL list Dary Jones speaks with the medicos Callahan really busy at touch him Kelly Whitfield big pack of players robot him drag to ground affected the kick there's petley taken High what's behind me what's behind me he started at the gws Academy when he was 13 years of age made his NE too at 16 as a young Prodigy push and shove continues but then was undrafted had to go through the vfl rich Stripes yeah great story look they're just smashing them at ground ball situation in the contested they're out hunting the cidney swans at the moment stay here got to turn that around at quarter time she needs to kick his first goal in the final pushes it these are Big misses they're dominating a lot of areas should be further in front quick kick in finds Lloyd 45 seconds in counting this on will be acutely aware of the time and they bold enough to see if they can score a late one themselves am Marty for hard Haywood tracking the boundary line happy to con a boundary throwing that's it does he still getting some assessment there just around after that hit heyden M just a little cheapy one just right in the stern thank you bols just a seven-point margin in favor of the Giants it feels like that could be significantly worse the swans haven't let the scoreboard get out of hand rope on and the tackling specialist perps it up on the wing ready it time for either side if they can get a clean takeaway Briggs tried to get it to Green golden touched off his boot just his third touch Amari came through to try and impact the contest Rob bottom versus green Rob bottom somehow came up with it still time for Sydney cunning hand golden squeezes a kick pitches inside 50 Buckley working towards the line stood up well Ash ran it out of bounds what he was doing professional other don't even see the on the wrong side of it my apologies there's Darcy Jones so final 3 [Music] seconds Grundy Bri's battle already been an engaging one gws have controlled the inside in this opening turn holding Sydney papley kick free kick to papley on quarter time he will be 60 there's no time to no no no no no stand up Isaac ISAC there's no time there's no time to wa this has returned it to and play sets up and hits the barrel oh and we're on and we are on here we go the battle of the bridge September style and patley and Toby at the bottom of that no surprise this was always going to happen odds on green off some steam after a tense opening turn and the two main agitators in the midst of it Tom patley and Toby [Music] green it's gws at quarter time and a packed scg the Giants 2517 C [Music] 141 all right quarter time and as the players getting into a little bit of a scuffle have a bit of AR Bary push and shove you know that's just one of the things that happened uh there we go end of the first quarter it's the Giants they've come out full of run in this game 2517 leading the Sydney Swans 410 this is exactly what the Giants need to do folks this is what the Giants need to do they need to get on the front foot they need to have plenty of run and put uh and leave Sydney chasing in the wind but that being said nice fight to Finish the first quarter certainly was Addy G I tell you what peple and Toby green could be on a little bit more as the game continues let's see seven points to margin near a quarter time Giants would be happy but probably not with their uh errors in their scoring I tell you what this is a team Sydney Swans you don't want to miss your shots against them it'll come back to bite you in the butt uh and we might see that later all being said I think Sydney although they've only got one goal four I think they'll be very happy where they sit right at this moment only seven points behind the Giants think Sydney were good the Giants definitely came out running and brought it to Sydney straight off the bat let's just have a quick look where are we at the player stats for the match let me load this back up and load it back up what's going on my gosh folks there we go Tom Green gws Giants leading the way on 12 six and six and a good quarter Josh Kelly up there with nine top two for the Giants the best for the swans robottom and Lloyd both with eight Isaac heny need a big game from him of course all the stars from Sydney need a big game they just need to hang in there at the moment while gws Giants have their bit of momentum cuz I'm sure the momentum during the course of this game it will shift will chop and change uh to either side will have their run it's just who can score better uh who can score more accurate you know being said neither side has scored reasonably accurate at the moment Isa just the seven Touches at the moment Loy F Whitfield just a six there also for the Giants so both teams will be happy keeping those players quiet Luke Parker with six three kicks three hand balls so far Chad Warner there's one of the guns there for Sydney Swans very very quiet hardly saw him at all he what uh Sydney need him firing if they want to have any chance at this game five disposals that's it three kicks two hand balls one Mark Jesse Hogan opening goal scorer of the game there for the Giants five uh five disposals four kicks for a couple goals there we go Nick Blakey the lizard he's had five disposals let's keep going down Errol gon quiet again four Brody Grandy with four I tell you what you'd expect some of these players to have a few more but that's okay maybe they're doing the tag and roll on each other keeping them nice and quiet all right that are your leading disposal gets for the opening quarter here let's just quickly check the goals and then we head back down to the ground Jesse Hogan only two goal scorers here Jesse Hogan the only goal scorer for the Giants with two and James row bottom I'll give you a quick glance at the team team stats we go it's the Giants by 20 disposals inside 50 16 to the swans and 13 to the Giants free kicks 7 to six the stoppages there we go hit outs uh Sydney by two clearances it's the Giants by four Senate clearances 312 the Giants all right folks let's get back to the commentators and they will take us into the second quarter three goals you mentioned Toby green missed two including one sitter ping misses a sitter they should have more reward on the score they've set a platform but they've got to continue look at this this the pressure we're talking bang up under the rib cage there on Blake he fors a cough up hand ball Parker thinks he's got time but he has not against the Giants and then it's back into the mix and this is what the Giants do really well slick hands bang bang bang inside to out and now this is their game they got forward half that's on fire at the moment they're putting the jong's back six in all sorts of turmoil Hogan Jo got some Vision to show at halftime has been exceptional but right now they are just too tough for the Sydney Swans and their pressure is enormous Adam Kings be wrapped with that first quarter but if you're John Longmire maybe you say right they've thrown everything add us and we are only seven points down but also defensively the Giants have been terrific and taking away Sydney's uncontested marks their ability to come back through the corridor that's allowing the Jones to win the ball back at half back and then try and slingshot again and challenge the Sydney defense king of your boy the kid with the lid Dary Jones is back out there which is good news yeah get back out there Dar he can't be down off the ground for a hit like that 209 pressure rating I'll go through the records in a moment but I reckon that's a greatest quarter of pressure we've had for some time that's a ridiculous number for the Giants a deep breath there for the skiper Toby green he needs to keep his call and make sure he leads this side with some conviction they lead it by seven points what have the Sydney Swans gotten reply let's have a look on Fox Foie perfect bounce to start this second quarter this is Ping roboton dumped him to the tackle but it's the Giants who go inside 50 again Toby Jones is back out and looks fine great news for GW charg to Big M and it's a high F kick against m [Applause] Isaac ISAC Chad come out he Mak that see free kick there D I don't think it was there it was a good strong Tackle by malakin the Umpire inside 50 side on didn't P it it was from outside the area where it was paid youngest player out there in this final to MCM big moment for him he STS at home and kicks the first of the second quarter handled that moment nicely Toby McMullen Pi 34 in the 2022 draft he's a great athlete second fastest in his draft combine over 20 M and top 10 for agility in the running vertical lead he's fitted in nicely into this team it's a good athletic profile isn't it yes look that they're just getting to the ball first at ground level so when you do that you do get threee kicks this way guys let's have another look at it here was that initial maybe yeah that swinging arm initial contact that the Umpire that was front on there did see that you've seen them not pay technically yeah you could say it was there giants by 13 points early going second term of the qualifying final Rundy and Briggs Parker off the ground punched Away by Perryman first to arrive was coming who tried to flip it to Perryman and out it goes RWS plus 15 for contested possession an area that I'm sure the swans will be looking to lift in the second turnberg just dropping off Luke Parker as the fair here RS try to get to it again can't do so Heeney Perryman immediate tackle from papley the record for contested possession in the game was Ben cumington 32 he had in 2018 32 in a game well Tom GRE had seven he's got a bit bit of work to do next best was liba he had 28 so he's on if he keeps up his current rate he might catch Li but G Ben Hunnington that's an incredible 32 in a game Kings are looking frustrated side lead by 13 points Isaac Heeney with an opportunity to pump the swans back inside 50 his eight touch Lloyds had eight and Ro bottoms had eight well greens had 12 for gws nine to Kelly and sideways to Harry Cunningham who's paying a lot of close attention to Brent Daniels now just unloads the long bomb can they get a contested Mark hard to do that on Sam Taylor ha with came flying through missed the footy High free kick paty's draw one here the mark stand there welcome back Tom [Applause] patley stand there up and down such an xed type player he doesn't take any time at all and patley goes bang and kicks a ripper that's why they love him Tom patley and he wants to get in the face of the opposition look at him he's giving it to everyone the pat five weeks out and there's a little spot fir around the you got topy what about the flex after the stap as d c he didn't take a lot of time but he knew straight off the boot but that's his bread and butter and didn't he love it got every muscle in the upper body there flexing and he's searching he's searching for someone who wants to come for me who wants to talk to me who wants to receive a bit of Li I'm up for anyone two of the great agitators Tom patley and Toby green at either end to light the fuse on this one marching back to seven points brings the tap to open space heene got there first swooping in was coming taken down by gon legally four touches so far for Errol Kelly's been prominent as is this man Callahan from 52 to a two on two just hanging in the air was melin didn't complete the grab had Blakey Under Pressure Cunningham versus Hogan it spills to w [Applause] and the veteran makes no mistake margin back to 13 Cunningham wanted a free kick there we'll have another look at it yeah they were expecting it to be paid they almost stopped because they just assumed that it was going to be paid melin with the drop Mark he'd be dirty on that one and then great pressure by the Giants this is the one with Cunningham he just expected a free kick to be paid it wasn't and Kell ward in game number 314 Slots of beauty but just the pressure there making Blakey just flick away a dangerous hand to Nowhere at the top of the goal Square that's what pressure brings B Ward what a career Captain the Giants for 157 games still firing in this final all Qui one from Mills Jones put some good pressure sliding in gunde luckily in front takes a nice intercept Mark here is the Giants veteran high five first giant at 250 games he's embraced the wing roll so well has was a inside mid for so long that Wing roll perfectly just a sheer size of Briggs down there almost impossible to get her out neither team's being up Intercept in this game it's being at least being neutralized and got to ground we've only seen three interet marks in the game so far quite three finals prior to this one this afternoon 01 his return in finals and that has been a bit of a challenge to Kieran Griggs that's a shank that one two goals 12 for the Year big Kieran 921 for his career so not the strong suit Ry goes long there is BRS competing and that is definitely his strong suit isn't it Jay the competing Jesse Hogan's just in the race for a little bit we just keep an eye on that thanks that BS Ken Briggs has had that saw shoulder for the last half of the Season he just keeps competing alive he's giving away free kick here I thoughty pushes it off quickly sw's going to get the ball in motion Lloyd's kick got on Buckley the closing speed of B Buckley there was outstanding just got in front of Hayden McLean out in front of the lead came through the Sydney Academy fell out of love with the game to Jack Buckley that been played 74 games for North Melbourne got the top up for gws and into the program gold stripped of it Ash Green just kicks it to a dangerous spot in the middle of the ground big ball to be W rampy versus Jones well on rampy great SM green off the boot of Roberts and then Warner takes Toby green hard hand ball sold Kelly into trouble green gets it back now to Briggs he'll spread it wide and find Ward overlap run from Kelly's going to be fronted here by robottom put some good pressure on made Darcy Jones work hard back to Kelly partially smothered kick went through the hand of Toby green Errol G just his fifth touch for the game I'd love to get more out of Errol still pinballing around the Giants forward line it's been called play on and it's ping who's taken that responsibility for Golden D he doing a great job on him we highlighted in the pre-match how big Errol Gordon has been against the Giants in the last three occasions great roll for pman he started that roll superbly Warner with a B kick straight through the corridor and himberg takes the mark on mcone on on had the short wide options dead goes long Toby out the back locking key boot to ball manufactured the goal Roy Keith brilliant what a great role player Loy Keith has become for the Giants it's his 10th season of gws spent four at the magp prior to that and that it's a big moment he's taken it to Perfection it was a great contest in the mark contest I think it was Toby GRE who just launched himself at it forc the ball over the back and nice little opportunist goal for the big man here we go guys let's go just said there hasn't been a lot of intercept marking there was a contested intercept mark from himberg got it into a dangerous position you get a good contest from tby and Loy Keith out the back the big man 200 CM that's a good finish he was happy with that getting out to a dangerous Little League now the Giants first goal of the year for Keefe gives them a 19point lead Callahan to Ward and gws are rolling right now Ash goes cruising past Rob bottom it's the left foot pass it's good come back M controlling the football at the moment this isio there's the contested Mark numbers WS controlling the skies Canelo to a big pack almost Blakey danger Cadman McMullen Florent tried the socker spills to Perryman he gets a shot misses left and the swans right now on the back foot just getting great contest forward again getting getting it to ground in their 450 everything's hard work for the swamps from back here NS searching for a Target placed it in front of Lloyd it was a l kick in the end under some real pressure the swans are feeling it at the moment the swans Defenders have got to be getting exhausted six inside 50s to the Giants only one for the swans so it's just leing there it's going to be again they just can't generate any run they're having to go down the line reeks did well sideways now to Iden Conor Iden finds Josh Kelly dispos with number 15 stand having the game on their terms at the moment gws back to Perman sticks it out wide tailor brilliant hands another Mark forward at center for the giant that's 19 for them and Sydney they can't get anything going forward of Center they've only taken five marks forward of Center none inside their 450 just be how to work their way through this defense with ease at the moment is coming the next Link in the chain short one's on to Ash and spawn defense have been caught out and now they're just becoming a bit reactive a little bit of exhaustion's kicking in and they're standing around guarding grass a bit so the Giants are just picking their way through some forwards have got to start winning some contest take some pressure off the backs 100th AFL game for luy ash hasn't kicked a goal this year gets close to the man on the mark gives it a good ride oh Kei taking the Mark just inside the line has he just wait just wait what' you see just wait what' you see you okay okay look [Applause] look you happy with the B have to control you on your one Mark's been paid after all of that discussion with the boundary umpire clear Mark no argument there it's only if it was the juggle at the last bit but if he's had control of before that last juggle yep I'm with you rich Rocky K's looking for his second goal he's just drifted that across the face out to a 21-point lead they are on the ropes at the moment Sy 16 marks to two in this second turn make it three maybe now the swan straight up the middle War's got a open forward 50 he goes from 80 M out bounces it it will sit up and Taylor will be first back onto it goes long for territory Florent coming knocks it on this might work for Daniels robottom coming the other way play on the [Applause] coure there Daniel he's got straight up look at this T here [Applause] hey that's right great play by both the players outstanding footing that's finals isn't it contest by Daniels robot him coming the other way take a backward step either for the free kick for to the shoulder in the Rut contest of Whitfield here's the difference in the game at the moment gws able to hit up targets and therefore control Tempo swans haven't been able to take a mark Perryman inside 50 PWS freaking for a block it'll go to Aaron Cadman M can could see that Tom mccarten potentially was going to take an uncontested Mark Jesse Hogan for once there lost the booty Blakey sorry yeah Blakey yeah he didn't yeah looked at the man that's there it's the CU the umpire's look for isn't it to step back off the line and not looking at the ball first final for the 20-year-old been a good finisher this year 30 out Slaughter okay 27 points the margin this is becoming something frustration for Nick Blakey gws have kicked four goals to one in this second term and their seven-point quarter time lead is now 27 littley let's have another look here you can see Blakey there he takes his eyes off the footy that's the queue as lingy pointed out that the umpires look for him can't really complain it's all around the contest getting hammered and when Sydney do get the ball they cannot maintain possession at all they've only taken three marks this quarter so that means they're under siege every time they get it halfway mark of this second ter next goal feels vital all of a sudden got to get Errol Gordon into the contest charging after it Tom Green brilliant well on MC and now mik Donal B he mcer next kick the V one brilliant pick up Will Haywood bending it open gold Square will Haywood they needed that and they got it classy finish to will Hayward right against the flow play he wants to go on with with Conor idon Touch of Brilliance some good contest to possession wins there couple of big contest couple of big wins Heeney Haywood great pick up and finish see they needed that can that ignite them [Music] well rich just highlighted the contested possession numbers this is what they needed to do strong in their contest couple of hand balls not a perfect kick but has that pick up from Haywood brilliant take brilliant snap might be the spark the swans need to get something rolling before half time and then it's back on again classy finish from will Haywood gws had had eight of the first 10 inside 50s until that moment this quarter Heeney now tries to take it away from Green Green finds it smothered off his boot by robot him so he Sockers off the deck golden flips it back in the Robert's Direction Callahan puts the body pressure on and wins the one-on-one Daniel slaps it on Roberts going the wrong way uses Ry green tries to work him to the line and rampy floats a kick back to the wing papley waited to see if it got over the top it didn't ID and did well green got the hands free now to Ward Ward towards the pocket in from the side will come green he'll stay down it'll get to the back mccarten looks to clear Buckley will arrive did just enough to get it to the deck McLean a massive ground ball McDonald had to be quick hoist and high himberg underneath it he'll put them back in how Fierce this contest at the moment Isaac coming some space to Canelo stand these contests up on the wing the Giants have been able to dominate and just send it back in repeat entries time time again next bolts back to Isaac Cy and Loy Woodfield who's one of the hardest runners in the game he just powers and powers to get into positions like this been reasonably well held throughout this game again this will be his eighth disposal coming up we know how good a kick of the foot he is though he's not Beyond him from here be a tough one little Australian this year was little Australian back in 2018 top of the Square kick scor's Defenders get back and take care of it Thea Arin sit at 22 eight to play in the first half and the ball on the hands of Jake Lloyd now Blakey can they generate some sort of launch off half back Rich they haven't been able to get that flow yet no they haven't been able to maintain possession couple of Marks here now the kick is good for Grundy so they've worked at a half back it's the next one though it's of Center where they haven't been able to chain up Giants get in a defensive position so he cuts inside on the 45 to Golden again arrol forced to hold it up you can see the numbers for gws blocking all the holes so gold no option goes to Lloyd now they'll create an overlap well Grundy went back the other way he actually had McDonald on the wing and they might switch to The Far Side patient from Sydney they still Shifting the Giants around a bit can something up rampy to Cunningham to mccarten and again the defensive wall just builds in front of them they desperate for that Corridor they keep wanting it but the Giants are setting up so well in there they hem them into that pocket again this is Lloyd one mistake away from a turnover and a potential shot at goal for gws so they're living on the edge Lloyd now forced a kick to a contest Taylor got rid of Grundy Ash ground level against robottom and at least the swans get it to the wing but wasn't it hard work yeah three quars of their possessions this quarter behind Center so as we just said they just can't chain it up for of Center the Giants defense all over the ground doing a great job some heated discussion going on in the swans coaches box Dean Cox John mm he's trying to work out how to get this game back why they want it here's Tom mccarten pull the trigger to lay as Warner kept it in just millim in it and the swans have got to keep testing it though keep looking for what they want through the middle of the ground all it takes is one or two Giants players to get a little tired and not concentrate something can open up one down the line Parker sets himself brilliant contested Mark not paid wow he had 99% of it that doesn't count and Jesse Hogan the vice like honors the lead of Cadman under some serious pressure free kick going away the Giants the arm came around he HED here the free kick happen back here the Umpire was right there as soon as that goes around you're in stri stand there please she was good body use by cadin though wasn't it to keep that front position that now Hur that's a par grab that's a Mark isn't it got a fair bit of it you're right lingy he knew that he' taken the space a little bit early so he just held his ground had he held his space and Drew that free kick the number one pick from the 2022 draft beautiful looking set shot Aaron cman big time goal he's got his [Applause] second just a little look at the sublime Talent of the number one pick there cabman as Le said used his body beautifully L and the Finish was equally as good yeah just fought for it fought for that position knew exactly where the ball was going to drop and on an experienced Defender that's good play for a young player only in his 34th game well he's starting to emerge Cadman the second half of this year seeing plenty of glimpses of the future with him he's taking his chances tonight got a cool head used his body well there Hogan involved again the last four minutes of play really summing up the challenge for Sydney they can't get it into their front half of the ground and if they cough it up up gws can make them pay papley Warner squeezes a kick through to Heeney some of their big Mercurial names looking to get involved Heeney takes some territory drives at low and flat inside 50 well red Buckley some of their other Runners have got to get into this game though Florence only had the six touches mckin er's had the two Mills has only had the five some of their better ball users better Runners creators through the middle it can't just be left to Heeney Warner and Gordon because couple of those players have been pretty well held at the moment here's CET again with good strong hands will go to a one-on-one at 50 rampy work to the front it'll spill over the back for green waits for the bounce doesn't get it support arrives lovely pick up Heeney in one motion finds Cunningham he's trying to lift he's trying to get his team back into it Appley has pushed all the way down deep into defense I've seen this so often where it just isn't movement that is appealing patley looking around well eventually one of your forwards has got to take a mark down the line that's what they're searching for there mcer involved James Jord joh have been so strong around these contests be thrown Up's coaching staff there Adam Kingsley we pretty happy the way this game's unfolding Perryman High one inside 50 and now they get an inter set Mark to Mills can they launch something on the back of it syney short to warnery on in the middle yep great kick great kick and that might open things up now he can turn and go his got Heeney short hits that option Iden did well got it to ground Heeney versus Iden Iden kept his feet slaps it into space Buckley taken down by McDonald play on the call papley retreats to Golden stay an outnumber in there Ford 50 he can't go quickly here Gordon Giants have got good representation back touch for Errol golden high and long towards the pocket can McLean get on the end of it Well Done Taylor just as he was about to snatch it Sam belted it away it's just over 3 minutes to play in the first qualifying final the first half gws by 28 points still no marks in Ford 50 not one for the swans how good is this Johns defense been can they find a way to go here Heeney couldn't be in better hands launches a flying shot the clean pretty well to keep it alive sh Taylor almost impossible to play he does not lose one on on four Touches for mle four for McDonald one for Marti so just three a nine touches rather between the three key forwards it's been hard work with the ball movement obviously haven't been able to get it in there quick Rich Show and just give them one-on ones no you can't always get quick ball mov [Applause] Biden Jones popped a hand ball Kelly Toby green thought about the give to Hogan so insteading it back to Buckley kick with smell it off his boots and now McDonald to Lloyd happily The Hitter 75 from goal he's got Heeney inside 50 heads in that direction one-onone One hander a beauty [Applause] brought on pacley and supreme from Heeney pacley identified it quickly he knew Heeney was one out and protected the spikes well but how did he held on to that what a mark in front of a massive stand full of swans fans it is almost all cing at that end of the ground this to provide the spark with 2 minutes to play in the first half he steps around brilliant [Applause] maybe that's the spark they need well he's the one he's the man linging trying to lift this team that's inspirational it's only 21 points and they're the highest scoring team in the cop so they can get going that was very important they just crossed over P pushed up a little bit I think he identified the fact that Perryman Heeney matchup was advantage to the swans got it to Advantage side but still that takes incredible class strength everything for heene to mark that and then nailed it much to the joy of the Sydney Swans fans he's the one who's trying to get his team up and moving get that Spirit back of idual Brilliance from the Superstar Isaac Heeney Mills they'll pay the Mark here M launched at it McDonald H up Haney inside 50 now perhaps in the second half he goes forward a little bit more Brick's clean possession har kick forward by Kelly Ry cleared a pass for Roberts impressive young player Whitfield and Mone from kick Sydney okay outside go luy Marty should be doing a lot of work here to try and free Haney on the lead this space y front of [Applause] he justtin MC kick down the line they emerg from everywhere the Giants Defenders Jack Buckley brilliant waited so long M he he ended up kicking it where he should have gone five or 6 seconds earlier than that Iden to Perryman Swan's trying to Rally late in the turn can gws land a gut punch Jones Callahan Ash danger this is Ward 70 from goal still 45 seconds the run from behind Callahan some space for Kei will it sit for him McDonald will get there first Kei puts the tackle on forc it to kick out on the full gws can set up here for one last shot Buckley wastes no time green at the front Daniels tried to get it to Green Ro bottom Jones sweating on [Applause] him 15 seconds and the swans need to be [Applause] tidy almost every player on the field is around this ball up there 15 seconds keep your eye on Toby he'll be charging through oh rampy hacked it out of midair McDonald held up and they will hold on here Sydney free [Applause] kick Lo here see plenty of this in the first half not the time to give away a late free kick stand now you're City Swan 15 M out from your own goal line as the half timee siren sounds welcome to halim on Fox Woody brought to you by matronics a super impressive opening half by the gws Giants they have been so tough and playing hard finals football Jason dunsel David King and Jo monana a lot of questions for the swans to answer we know they can kick goals in burst they're going to need to do that in the second half if they're going to book this home prelim final dominant first half from the Giants they've ticked every box but that late gold de heene just keeps Sydney in touch and you just get the feeling if they can tweak a couple of things get a couple of players to get their hands on the ball a little bit more in the second half the swans can still get back into this just admire how tough the Giants have been they've been brutal at the contest it's their trademark it's what they fall back on it's what they rely on pressure and contest they've been awesome today awesome and they've made the Sydney Swans Midfield who are all all Australian who we've talked about for 20 of the 25 weeks this season look second rate the Sydney Swans they're like a boxer up against the ropes they've just got their gloves up and they are just coping a flurry of punches the question is now whether they can start swinging and get themselves off the ropes and get back in the contest because the way this game is being played at the moment is all on the Giants terms and it looks for me and probably off the back of that Heeney goal it might take individual brilliant again from Sydney to bail them out which we saw earlier in the year it might take some something special from Heeney or Warner or Gordon to get them back in this contest is that an advantage for the Giants that their home and away style of football is a final start it's that high pressure high intensity football so when they get here that's their natural game well that's right they' they've practiced this they've played this way all year this was what the city swans are doing they dropped away the back end of the year and it just feels like they haven't quite found the Mojo that they had at the start of the season and they're just hanging on but we know how good aside they are we've seen them for a lot of the year fight their way back in second halfes so they have done it before no doubt internally they'll have a lot of belief but they got some soul searching cuz they need to find their best footy let's have a look at some halftime highlights with thanks to pepsy tastes better with pepsy Jay how are you seeing the match up between mcarton and Jesse Hogan Jesse kick the opening two goals of the game has taken some really nice graphs yeah it's been fascinating saw mccarten win that first contest but after that it's been all Jesse Hogan that he's been getting on the end of it again they've been able to dictate things a little bit um between melin and mccarten they haven't always been hard matchups and mccartan's handed over a couple times I don't get that if I'm John Longmire I'm telling mcart you stick wherever Hogan goes you go because he's too dangerous a player to let him have a little bit of space and he's moved in beautifully kicked a couple of goals and looked really dangerous he certainly has and then you've had Keith dropping up there for a couple of goals which I don't think anyone was really expecting let's go and see what Derma Britton is making of this game from ground level how are you seeing the forward line of the Giants Well the basic stat that's sticking out to me is marks inside forward 57 to the Giants one to the Sydney Swans which was Isaac Heeney late in that second quarter they need to find somebody up forward who can mark it whereas the Giants have got Cadman he's doing pretty well he's clunking a few Jesse's been very good and big ke is playing his role as well Jason was right it's a battle of wills for Kei and his opponent trying to get Jesse Hogan over onto melikan but it doesn't matter if Jesse goes oneon-one with any of these swans Defenders he's tending to win the argument cman leans his player up there again in melin and gets the full reward for it big kick as well under pressure so I mean those key forwards that's a great Mark by Cadman as well those key forwards a kick four of their goals now that's a pretty good return against a really solid defense but like the Sydney SW swans good stuff thank you very much to Derma bre and uh KY you've stepped inside the zero lab to have a look at the swans defense they have been under enormous pressure yeah and they haven't handled it today it's been quite disappointing what they've done I think John lar would be disappointed with the application to task I mean they're rolling off really aggressively and leaving a giant out the back more often than not and when it works it works big and it looks terrific Blakey takes the right option on this occasion and they get through and they get a high quality shot goal but for the most part of the the first half they've come off at the wrong time they they've over supported the high ball coming in and it's exposed them out the back we saw Keith get boots a ball in the goal square and kick a goal it's look made them look rattled I haven't seen Blakey play a game like this for a long long time they're confused on who's actually got Toby green look at this he's rolling up really aggressive he's out the back and gone and what it does do it allows green to take some really dangerous face he's not going to roll back to where the numbers are he's going to go to he going to for rampy the track all the way back and when you can't get there you bleed this is as bad as I've seen Sydney behind the ball but they pick them apart same thing again here look at this they get a free kick they're lucky to get a free kick here against Toby green but this has happened for the whole first half Jason I don't understand it now it's been an interesting tactical battle I really like what the Giants are doing but the problem Sydney have got two is in their forward line they getting nothing out of Logan McDonald and and Joel Marti so if they can't get them to actually take a mark they're going to have to rest strcture things in the forward 50 Joey we'd expect Sydney to change lanes to move it around out of defense they're not doing that they haven't been able to now I the Giants application to try and close that Gap and defend them one-on-one and not allow Sydney's uncontested ball has been significant when they can change lanes come back through the corridor find the uncontested market Adam Kingsley told us then get that overlap run they are hard to stop you can see there they've been forced to kick long down the line twice as much as they usually do that's not how they want to play they don't have the tools that can take contested marks they want uncontested footy and spread the field but the Giants team team defense has been working exceptionally well they've been under siege down there well they've had 17 defensive half turnovers was the third most in a half of football for the swans for the year at that time they've been comical errors haven't they characteristic they forced them I mean because of all the pressure up the field from and the Sydney Midfield is not really getting it done in this second quarter particular just the swans were F you spoke about it K they were dropping marks coughing up hand balls they're feeling the pressure as well so the Midfield have got to start just to get B in the four half but take a bit of pressure off this defense that are under the seege you can see Sydney feeling a little bit hard done by with a couple of decisions that have cost goals and the crowd's been feeling it as well that's not the reason they're getting out work they're getting out bustled by the cross town Rivals and they've got to fix things in the second half a massive second half coming up here from the scg it is huge day of footy on Fox because after this we are heading to the gab for the Dual die clash between Patrick ks's blues and the Brisbane lines Gary line in the team to lead our Fox footy coverage you're watching finals Foy on Fox brought to you by mat Tronics it's a place for the coaches are coming off all right all right all right all right well the commentators are just off there we'll just have a little bit of a look at the player stats that is for sure tell you what the Giants are doing it well they've got all the run in this game Sydney Swans they're struggling to stop it but they are controlling the margin to 21 points which isn't a big margin at all and of course isak kicking that legate goal for the swans that might just be the spark they wanted uh there's a lot of Sydney Swans Stars down in their game tell you what the Giants need to keep their foot on the pedal need to keep playing their brand a footy CU if they take the foot off the gas at all they'll let Sydney open the door and play their game of course we all know Sydney can come home with a big thunderous rush and this game is not over folks not over 7850 the Giants 45 29 Sydney Swans uh the Giants have looked better all the way around Jake Lloyd for the swans top of the table 17 disposals with Josh Kelly and Tom Green all three plays with 17 Isaac Keeny with 15 lifted the bit in that second quarter Jake Buckley with 13 Chad Warner up to 10 he's to lift as well Callum Wards having a good game there for the Giants 10 disposals five kicks he's kicked a goal lucky Whitfield still only on nine Gooden on nine both quiet games BR Grundy not doing a great deal out there today just a nine disposals five kicks four hand balls he's taking a couple of marks uh needs to lift a little bit Tom peple flexing his muscles after he kicked that goal eight disposals eight kicks well still need a little bit more from him Toby green same need a bit more from him eight disposals two behinds needs to be a little bit more accurate who else we got there Nick Blakey the lizard eight touches swans need him run through the back give them good drive give them good drive up to their half forward Toby McMillan just with a seven himberg with seven Jesse Hogan still just a six kicks uh six disposals five kicks he still kicked two goals there lucky Keith with five James Jordan just a four touches and army needs to get into the game there for the swans just the one touch one kick so there's plenty of improvement to come there for the swanes don't be worried too much about that if you're a swan supporter but kyly thinks gws is going to win if they keep going like this then the Giants should get the job done but you know they just can't they just can't rest they can't rest they can't take the foot off the accelerator um yeah the swans they're just too dangerous they're too dangerous if they get uh get a Sniff and get that game going Jesse h Aaron cadar the only two multiple goal scorers on the ground so far with two both for the Giants Kum Ward tobby McMillan Lan Keith are the other single goal scorers there for the Giants and of course all singles to Sydney James Road bottom Tom patley Isaac Heeney will Haywood they are your single goal scorers there all right we're not too far away only 9 minutes out for the bounce of the bo of the third quarter get this second half underway is it going to play out the same and the Giants going to have all the Run tell what the one good thing for the Sydney people they haven't had much of a chance haven't had much of a run they haven't had the momentum 21 points down it's not a big margin let's head back to the commentators and they give us some more of their thoughts before the bounce of the ball oh no they're going over to the breaking news so we'll just hang around a little bit let's just have a quick glance at some teams stats and while we wait there for a couple of minutes did you see the fight the Toby green caused yeah between him and papley yeah they they're two uh they're two uh yeah they're two bulls that like to go at it and cause a little bit uh you know and good good spectacle good spectacle there we go the swans 33 disposals in front or I should say the Giants 33 disposals in front just the five kicks but uh the hand balls are up and of course little bit happening there at that quarter time as you were talking about that little uh yeah a little bit of a push and shove papley getting well in amongst it but you know no fists were really flying just a lot of pushing and shoving could be a couple of fins that's about all coming out of that inside 50s 23 to the swans for their nine scoring shots 29 inside 50s for 15 scoring shots for the Giants of the Giants are doing a little bit better free kicks 13 to 12 one extra to Sydney of course efficiency inside 50 39 58% Giants doing it well their disposal efficiency actually not too bad for both teams there the stoppages all pretty even there 15 to 14 one to the swans Giants by three in the clearance Department one in the sener clearance and two in the stoppage clearance their possessions contested so the Giants a little bit harder at the ball 73 to 55 uncontested controlled the ball a little bit more around the grounds 11 18 to 928 in front there the turnovers pretty much similar 3334 of course the Giants been in possession of the ball bit more in this match 46% to the swans 35 johs getting their marks also the marks inside 5050 wasn't until very late when Isaac Heeney took that Mark did the Sydney Swans actually have a mark inside 50 uh which just shows the great defense of the Giants there 7 to1 inside 50 marks going towards the Giants and of course contested marks 9-2 Giants doing it well as I said the Giants have been pretty well on top throughout this game throughout this match they got this game on their terms they're playing it their style of footy their brand the way they want they're linking up well uh and everything is going to plan for the Giants at this present time so one thing Sydney need to do just Rectify that stop the run of the Giants get a little momentum back for themselves put on probably a couple early goals in this quarter and then we got game on again as I said 21 points folks it's not much in this day and age 21 points can be rectified within 5 minutes of football t tackles both tackling reasonable as you'd expect in a qualifying final the pressure is on 2829 tackles inside 50 Giants doing it well eight Sydney five so both doing well there the 1centers both doing the 1 percenters and of course the interchange uh made both 36 interchanges made out of 75 for the game so they got plenty in hand 39 interchanges left each for the second half let me just roll this back up we're only about four minutes out from the bounce of the ball and of course we'll take you back down there who will lose a player next week I don't I don't think any uh I actually didn't hear what they were talking about if they were talking about but I'm not sure I didn't see anything too uh uh to underwar in all that type of uh Malay small type of Mall there so I wouldn't I wouldn't think anything could be too much happening we might hear it when the commentators come back on if you're saying that uh you think someone might get rubbed out for something caused in that uh in that incident but from what I saw uh nothing and I I've had the uh I've had the sound on mute while I've been talking to you good folks in the chat and at there own the live world out there but uh yeah hopefully the commentators will be back in a moment and they will take us into the third quarter which is coming up in just over 3 minutes time but thanks don't forget uh don't forget put your vote in we got 26 votes in who's going to win this game so far 26 votes and of course 54% say Sydney Swans 46% saying the Giants gws Giants will win this match so don't forget make sure you put your vote in there we'll see at the end of the game very interesting so yeah welcome in uh to Brett Jane G Carie Hannah welcome in stay hunky good to see everybody in there and of course Ryan all right we're not too far away we're not too far away all right folks here just a moment we'll be back down to the commentators for super we all know there's only one symbol to look for so with thanks to Industry super fund team what are we wanting from the Sydney Swans to get them back into this contest well it's not working anywhere I mean it starts at the cold face they've got to win some ball middle of the ground the Giants are a poor stoage SE and they're winning clearances that says something to start with and then they've got to find some connection going forward kingy cuz it's not working there no I think it's time to roll the dice move Isaac H into the for line the TOs haven't worked deari hasn't touched the ball he's posing no threat McQueen the same and McDonald's got a couple of kicks up the ground but nothing meaningful in the fourth half this is what they need they need someone to light it up they need a constant and everpresent Target who knows the game their Superstars have done it all year they might have to do it again I want to see some run from halfback they need to almost generate a for to Sydney Swans so I would be surprised if they play that extra Defender again to start this quarter play a bit more of an uncontested game and Floren and Blakey and Lloyd and these guys to try and run and carry see if they can generate some offense KY you're loving the game of ping yeah he's done the job on Errol Gorden kept him quiet he spent a bit of time on on war a little bit of time on Heeney but it's just it's just diligent to task cuz no Fan Fair there's no flare about his game he's just a lovely magnet for the coach to go and do this job for me and I guess that spread through the team J I mean they've all played with that sort of Mana today plus 16 contested possessions their best half for the season yeah I mean Ping's led the way as you say he's got better as The Season's gone on as have a number of the Giants but they're coming good at the right time there is just a there's a dedication to be aggressive at the ball and at the man with the ball and if they can do it for another half they'll win this game of footy but easier said than done KY you said before the game that the swans have got bro Grundy for September at the moment Briggs and he's got the bang up shoulders he's giving them first use of the football in the middle yeah and he just playing the big man role and bro's a different sort of Ruckman that understand what he is and what he isn't but in this half they need him to be a contested possession winner they need him to get them going out of the middle because as Joy said it's been calamitous down back with their bu useless swans and now they're having to give up probably an extra man in terms of having a plus one down there because they can't get it done in the middle step up big man so they've already started Errol G at half forward so they're trying to break that tag a little bit he might come up the an extra around the footy see if they can open up the Ford line get some extra numbers they're going to have to try something here Sydney Giants had this game on their turns but we have seen Sydney do it before they can't kick goals in a hurry they might have to win this turn they certainly can let's see if the Sydney Swan Superstars can lift in this second half a home prelim is on the line let's return to the middle at the scg and half gws leaded by 21 points ping couldn't control it Warner CAU and then ping controlled him yeah come down ran Brees continue their battle Kelly been outstanding 18th touch for him now leads the game Mills fashion to kick back towards the win for what a [Applause] hanger wow what a St got the ultimate right doing everything to lift his team inside 50 Lloyd Golden and we just wanted it to go out of bounds so we can see the replay Richard absolutely this is an absolute oldfashioned hanger look at that he can do everything this guy what a hang from Isaac Heeney incredible elevation and hang of the right word he just hung up there defi gravity what a grab and now he's looking to put the team on his own back happily was he taken High by Ian say up what a brilliant Mark Buckley actually did quite well with him and just grabbed his hand and almost stopped him from falling directly on his head incredible Mark so this is why you got to have Mark and goal of the year that stretches through the finals couldn't agree more Richard just nonsense The Season's not over till Grand final day Jeremy Cameron the other night for that goal and now that exactly Isaac trying to put his team on his back extraordinary bit of athleticism we just saw here he is again worked off it by Kelly then he got a little smother on the hand ball robot Tak it off it free kick [Applause] Sydney such a vital part of this Midfield setup Rob bonam he allows his teammates to play at the level they do so often it's just been their challenge getting marks forward Grundy he had a reasonable claim on that Mark again they just can't quite complete them gon taken High winning some Cru free kicks early here we know how good to kick Gordon his inside forward 50 touch high it was for Haywood spills to Floren back to hawood Toby green great tackle pressure and now Canelo tracking it going to GRE Mills coming the other way rampy outside 50 D rampy [Applause] brilliant huge moment game 249 it's his 21st final today and that is his first goal in an AFL final could not have come in a bit of time from Dane Ramy soah HEI the man just before halftime with the one-hander and that there as good as it gets he's trying to lift his team three contested possessions this quarter ISAC Heeney already and then rampy the other veteran with a goal from outside 50 Ling he was racing up from doing the interview with Adam Kings that's the first time you've seen the Heeney Mark what do you thought some sort of grab isn't it last time I saw him do something like that he was doing the jumps into the dam back in Newcastle when he was a kid so the swans now rallying gws have got some important minutes here Warner comes away out of the middle a couple of bounces punches the hand B to WS Road bottom goes back and has to find it Ash collapses on here some good signs though Warner running and bouncing we haven't seen that meet his game that's what he does so well ready at the first three inside 50s of the term Sydney hi Sydney and not get another opportunity here Sydney mention the crowd it feels like it's heavily skewed towards the swans Grundy inside 50 gets home he again bleeding from the nose will the Umpire there to take his K he [Applause] short well we've we've seen it up here only a few weeks ago what this guy can do he can turn a game in an instant in a quarter he did it against Collingwood he's trying to do it again here blood knows might be from altitude sickness 35 [Applause] out ninepoint game [Music] what a challenge now for gws as this scg starts to [Applause] rock well he's trying to do it for his team Isaac Haney you can't let him drift inside 50 Grundy gets in it was a bit of a m kick but it gets to him he can't win the brown low he can't win mark of the year can still win a Premiership though what a star Giants had a game high 28o lead that has been reduced back to nine you can see the message from the swans bench get Isaac back out there ASAP it's Tom Green off the side of the boot shney suddenly feel like they got numbers around the contest more than the Giants do Florence kicked down the line Mone can't complete the mark bir gry starting to have a bit of impact around stoppages as well getting his hands on the ball but also the crowd's being injected into this game it's amazing what happens when you start winning the contested fo0 was dominant for the Giants in the first half plus six early in this third quarter swans getting their hands on the ball the game is Flowing for them on the back of it he's BR gruning again he gets better as the game gets longer he's a real Workhorse important opportunity here for Hayward picked it up cleanly centering kick he wants Lloyd and gets him that's superb what a [Applause] kick brilliant skill kept his feet in the initial marking contest his opponent himberg went to ground he had the little look even before he picked it up that is superb play couldn't execute that any better Brewing huge moment you feel here now for Jake Lloyd a two time best and fairest winner more often you're going to get goals out of D rampy and Jake Lloyd in succession can he finish it for Sydney it's got the bend on it hits the [Applause] post for the first time this afternoon the Giants under enormous pressure F the hands of footy Jay complete reversal isn't it lingy of what we saw in the first half they need some marks now they get one buck we'll just get it and go they'll attack that kick not great into the crowd well it gives at least it gives him a little bit of repeat for a few seconds the backline not for long the SWS want to keep it moving they want speed on the ball now Blakey off half back they couldn't find this run in the first half Cunningham back to Blakey now to rampy suddenly space opening up for Cy that just wasn't there starting to control possession as well maybe low and flat to half forward Haywood there spoiled towards the line so ly right now the script is flipped what a gws need to do in the next three or four minutes well it simply comes back to the contest it's what they were good at so Tom Green in the middle there Callahan Josh Kelly Kell Ward I know he's playing the Winger role but when the ground balls are there you got to clean them up get a bit of foodie back into your team's hands move towards the line Ash Lloyd laser tackle Kelly Tom Green Ash Whitfield Tom Green again can they get through they can Ward petl over that run aggressive hand ball Canelo that was brilliant Ward to Tom Green two on one for Sydney and mccarton Stands Tall that's a good intercept Mark he was having to sit under it a little bit Giants had a bit of surge momentum going there yeah good was that chain there yeah from the Giants and it came from a couple of little ground ball winds off half back and then they get things going but the swans can get an intercept Mark they can go back flying the other way a bit of corridor opportunity to the city swans which they weren't able to in the first half came off the bench back superb timing Lloyd inside forward 501 to Mar lucky ke play on you good Clean Hands shares it with Iden and they're going to rebuild here from the backline through him it's a bit of a slingshot game here at the moment Cadman he's got the speed St ahead of him Jones holds it up makes Roberts commit now to Jones kick needs to be good it is to Hogan we didn't see a lot of intercept marking in the first half show cuz it wasn't the free flowing movement now we're going to need it yeah but it went back and forward a couple of times and eventually there's going to be a forward out and it's Hogan Tim he sleep perfectly great delivery from Jones Jesse Hogan who started the game with a couple of goals in the opening ter this for a steady up for gws after the swans have rallied late in the second hit the ground running in the third Hogan for number three 40 out low and [Applause] straight three goals to Jesse Hogan the man for the moment just to steady things down for the Giants arching back out to 14 points early going third ter it's been an action-packed first 10 [Applause] minutes bit of up and back foot but the Giants make most so look at Toby green just working hard to get inside forward 50 just pulling Kellum Mills out enough that Mills can't cover that Corridor kick and as you've highlighted so many times Rich Jesse Hogan's leading Pat is up the corridor as often as it can be he's just in constant movement if you watch if you ever go to a game just keep your eyes on Hogan he's never standing still first time he's kick three goals against the Sydney Swans Jesse hog and he's been edged underneath that one at the back d backto back goals they've got [Applause] it brilliant reply from the Giants and they go after Kellen Mills the swans Captain there's some history there richo absolutely there is it's all a bit of by play but it goes back a few games no doubt about that and they've responded and that young man involved [Applause] twice GS from Center B you got oneon-one for to the footy just get it in there you know you're going to get a contest and Mills if you're going to come across like that you've got to have impact and he didn't and Jones stayed down and n it coming off at ACL last year his second season so effectively he's first in AFL ranks 13 games 12 goals now for the impressive youngster Darcy Jones and what a response it's been from gws now green inside 50 off Hogan can he gather on the deck tries to brush the McAn tackle flips the hand ball Cummings dragged down off his kick High one spoiled clear mcer needs to try and Bre three he does the big stiff arm on PING was brilliant kick from FL good as well now it's holds up a little he's got Jordan it's and a half forward instead he'll spread it and they'll build it a little slower through Lloyd interesting decision to hold it from hwood had options Jordan was on for a while Lloyd goes towards AAR struggling to get into the game Joel Marti just the one touch so far four for McLean so they big name forwards or their big forwards haven't been able to get into it as Pat C watches on they're going to have to though Jason I mean you've got five goals out of Hogan and Cadman you need one of your TOS here to at least hit the scoreboard he declares his Allegiance Pat cins and the gws fans don't like it Australian Captain with a big smile on his face as Loy Whitfield hammers it out of Defense aw one for Roberts Blakey cut back in B canelia well slightly hold him up got the IPL coming up pack Comon he just break a record there the signing was him on the Superstar World sport that Cummings is some tension around the scg a home prelim final for the winner delicately poised 20o margin kick going the way of BR [Applause] Rundy it's rolling as a big extra midfielder he can have an enormous impact br gry pushing forward on Ward dumps the kick long can they get a mark from their forwards the swans touch play on you heard the call Sam Taylor Just brilliant got it out to Ash under some pressure Darcy Jones the leg speed on display did well toi and rampy the Fist from Dane rampy good enough to find the Bounty line jasi Jones's leg speeds having an impact in these last few minutes when it was all Sydney to start his third quarter he's been the one lightning quick number one all time at the Combine for the Agility Test Darcy Jones well he just cleared defense there great play Kelly who's been outstanding he runs away from Parker has two bounces runs to 60 squares it up Cunningham kept his feet as McMullen went to ground hing's done a very good job on Brent Daniels so far Daniels has had the odd moment or two hasn't had as big an impact as he's had in the second half of this season like a very different game in the second half as it was in the first it's starting to open up both teams getting some end to- end ball movement who does that favor ah I feel like the Giants with their the way they play the game if it gets into a real slingshot sort of game the made here two goals a piece in this third ter it was 21 points the margin at the half or 20 now Midway through the quarter Rundy in front on the hit out down Josh Kelly lost his footing but support from Finn Kahan back to Ward Amari The Tackle was effective but the Umpire said play on the call out to Kelly again great second effort Jesse Hogan taken off the foot little fumble from Roberts in comes Toby under some serious heat gets rampy over the boundary line I think the call was no tackled by the [Applause] Umpire that was a fantastic effort as well from armari that's he's going to get himself into this game yeah terrific two efforts there from [Applause] madii BR Grundy slaps it down he wants the boundary lay line now that coming and he has been called for deliberate much to the joy of the swans fans switch that's zini takes a breath great kick opens up the corridor to mcer it was Bal he hit it perfectly now golden his 11th Touch starting to get a little more involved as the game starts to open up a touch Warner now Mills the go forward is the hand ball over the top to Roberts finding some space here here's Hy again who's pushed up to the wing outside five Roberts once again as the swans look to shift this gws defensive Zone around now rampy but they look a lot more in control with ball in hand than they did in the first half that hung a long time well done coming now he forces a contest against Roberts socket towards the line Isaac gets their first need some support that kick not sure if it was intended for Jones but it found him Iden Floren uses Heeney Swan should get out of this Grundy Jordan's kick is high and wide towards the wing one-on-one contest and in the end both teams can catch their breath well there's a patch of players out there who need that Chas because they are exhausted it has been flying up and back in this third quarter and few Skiller is starting to build so it means players back effort effort effort starting to get the fatigue kicked in Ken Briggs his time with the strength on Grundy ramp's fist taken by Jones the agility and the skill Dary Jones wow he's electrifying you can't lay a finger on him little side step there he's having a great quarter and for all their work it's the same margin as half time still exactly Richard Dary Jones in his first f just his 13th game of AFL football what a future he has as we mentioned coming off an ACL last year so first year playing at the highest level Cunningham's kick Jones lurking but not even he can get to that one mccarton has it and cheet S are just defending the ground really well here they don't mind if Sydney just crabbed back and forth sideways boundary side there's Taylor setting up didn't complete the grab coming had some important touches Taylor now to tr tries to slap It Forward green the fin Mills takes him down up by set too high so it's been really good effort from gws to stabilize things after the swans flew out of the gates in this third ter and green will go back and catch his [Applause] breath standing the chest umire said tackle from Mills went High Kell Mills stands at 52 [Applause] Toby green would need to get all of [Applause] this no one's leading up through here from 53 M it's low and flat almost the journey McMullen swallowed up in a tackle by [Applause] Cunningham thank you Jes come in here hidden lucky here we go snu down by Lucky Keith through the legs of Tom [Applause] Green don't mind this at all the Giants repeat okayden thees inside their forward 50 and force the swans to defend for their life here D green came flashing through but it was Grundy want it down kicks in the Amari and sply Direction bouncers over both of their heads finding it hard again Mar even though he had those couple of tackle efforts he hasn't touched the footy this quarter neither's papley neither's Logan McDonald so there three forwards just cannot get the hands on the foot he cannot win contest forward of Center again even with that good catch to start this quarter it's Bren Campbell the sub yet to be activated davier aeran hin for the Giants as well there's Jordan and Whitfield strong tackle good job up got around the throat they waste no time Callahan Cuts pass Lloyd here's the dangerous Jones again can Roberts caral him he's got some time Bal on Roberts Jones shimmy onto his right boot goes towards Hogan almost it spills at the deck important from melin needed to be clean and then the great exit kick finds Haywood outside a couple of times tonight Lewis melin's cleaned up a ground level that's a really important one there from him big PR getting the job done at ground level Heywood goes to McLean and Amari himberg and Taylor have had their measure Whitfield gang tackled himberg at the back handall was ferocious for Callahan Amari takes him down Swan's looking to pounce on the spillage but Taylor's there chips the kick down the line Ward sets himself it's wide Sydney [Applause] ball feel maybe to dial that Riser tied up a little bit here I think they're going to have to they the Giants are defending the corridor so well though it's just going to be have to be at the right time D calculated risk over the head of amarti there able to get Mark down the line they want Parker came charging out trying to apply some pressure Idan Skies it Blake's going to launch I think what you just said there Dar they're not getting the marks down the line and you're probably not going to when you're going down the line to Taylor and Buckley they're they're smothering and Iden so the risk does have to be dialed up just over 5 minutes to play in the third ter margin sits at 21 as it was at the half swans jumped out with the first couple of goals of the quarter and gws responded with two of their own keth wins it on the deck and the Hand ball from ping goes out the players who've got the ability to dial that risk up though with their boys aren't getting their hands on the footy so golden still only at 11 touches again it's a time for Campbell yeah well he's a superb kick of the footy isn't he he could slice it up a little bit that maybe just holding him back a touch worried about an injury in this third turn but could be time to go green was stripped of it P kick here is Buckley creative expansive hand ball opens it up for Kelly a two on two melin in best position they get in each other's way mccarten can't hang on danger cman got [Applause] it disaster for the Sydney defense Aaron Cadman pounces he kicks his third and the margins back to 2 seven oh it's just one of those moments Sydney Defenders Tom mccarton and leis mikin just not the awareness understanding mccarton thinking he's doing the right thing coming across and helping but just not seeing that his teammate had it covered ball used through the middle by the Giants the long kick but they had it covered malin's ball and Tom mccarten just without the awareness well melin was looking over his shoulder at the ball so it's his ball yeah mcarton just had to realize it's cost them dearly both their instincts is Mark the footy do the right thing both committed yeah yeah just not the awareness to realiz your teammate had it wonderful response this from the Giants the last three goals of the game roon got it from Warner back to Cunningham helicopter kick down the line intelligent Fist from M but they're all golden 11 disposals War 13 there all Australian Jets just not able to break free here's Warner back to mcer McMullen confronted him M Blake he did well to get it back to Heeney nicely taken by McLean here is arrol spinning around but under pressure coughed it up they fight hard James Jordan to get it back an forward a gang tackle again from the Giants and you think of the last three times these teams play just been he doesn't have to be successful with the amount of footy that he's won he's goal kicking he score assists so to hold him in check is huge 3229 and 41 the last three for Errol versus gws is Kelly again another important touch C Waring up on the sideline here boundary potentially be injected into the shortly for Sydney he's got some zip and Elite kicking skills on that left foot wonder if it'll be for one of the TOs go a little smaller throw a different look at those giants Defenders Lakey the head up keep looking for heene who kept his feet incredible balance handle back to mcad now inside 50 mle again with a couple to beat in the Air Jordan will wrap it up have only taken three marks inside 52 of goose to heene and one for Jake Lloyd when he drifted down the fat side BRS the tap papley bouncing off players trying to get free McLean wrapped up by himberg Perryman couldn't muscle his way through it's flipped out Whitfield tall picked off a fumble from Heeney steps through the first runs into the second and gone good play from locky Whitfield on the three minutes remaining in this third turn yes Harryman has turned it over ler McDonald Glides to 50 can he send it back over perryman's head for a goal massive timely effort from Logan McDonald some skill involved in that at full pace and they just hang in there the swans back to 21 points we've spoken a lot about him Marty mle and about that man Logan McDonald is Jack Buckley comes off so some more drama so the slip here from Buckley you could just see him slip there as he tried to change directions that bought McDonald into it and that is a massive finish from a big man his height at full speed big big goal as Jack Buckley comes off the blood R and the sub's been made for Sydney Bren Campbell comes into the contest he's on the wing on Finn canhan and mcone has been subbed out after six disposals arching back to 21 [Applause] points Rundy decisive tap for Golden to run onto ping by his side Ricochet off Jordan Ro bottom gets the inside 50 McLean tries to work Taylor underneath it bumps him to ground slapped away Iden quick hands Ward kimelberg dribbles the kick and green happy to take it to the line gws number one in the competition Rich for denying goals once the opposition gets it inside 50 they've done it so well today here just outstanding they are in D50 led by Sam Taylor barley right for the last quarter such an important piece isn't he for their entire balance inside 2 and 1/2 minutes Grundy another tap Swan starting to look dangerous around the stoppage but Jordan can't rle free of Canelo you mentioned at the start of the quarter maybe a mistake to bring monei back after 6 weeks oh it just looked a bit underdone perhaps it was just another game in a vfl just to get him going but yeah missed six weeks of football so just looked a little bit flat footed [Applause] really important couple of minutes coming up Swan's desperate for another goal Kell Ward hands it back to locky Woodfield Mark should be taken by Blakey he backs his leg speed in and loves to get running he's going to pull the kick late looking for Heeney it's going to Ricochet back to Isaac went to the voice of patley Loy Ash charged at him and a fair tackle good t had to stay as you're allowed to do it's fine to brace yourself Ash had to stay low and they manufactur one here the syney swan's been superb to pokes a kick back to Roberts got to get a contested Mark McLean Taylor off his chest and out of bounds Buckley still off getting attention from the doctors and trainers at the moment just under a minute and a half to play there is Jack Buckley they're trying to get him back as soon as possible changes the defensive balance down back for gws without him Sydney manufacture something late and win the [Applause] quarter Grundy getting his hands on some Taps but well done green clears The Zone Blakey looks around does he go he doesn't really and Hogan a critical exit Mark gee that's huge he's done that so much this year when a mark down the line's been needed he's taken a contested Mark a lot this season Jesse Hogan that is big it relieves all the pressure now they can Tempo this to 3/4 time mfield to Callahan you're right Richard they can explore here if they can slowly make their way down the ground and get themselves a shot at go great but also quite happy to probably get to 3/4 time without any score how handle a contest Blake he sets himself couldn't quite bring it down front center from Tom Green dangerous kick inside 50 Toby green versus rampy Daniels almost on his bike couldn't take it cleanly and steady turns tackler on Lloyd and we have 30 seconds to play look at that for a number 23 and zip under Adam Kingsley when they're in front at three quarter time here it is here it is just firing some final instructions before three of time Adam Kingsley L Parker tumbles it out of there good hands from Jordan maybe a l go opportunity here for Sydney gets it out in the Haywood Direction great courage Ash came the other way this is the activated sub Camp well that'll work to mle he know there's not much time the SW stands urg him to go he's got 10 seconds pulls the trigger they haven't got marks inside 50 all afternoon nearly Logan McDonald patley snaps and can't get it through three quarter time siren sounds it was 21 at half time it's 21 points in favor of the Giants at 3/4 time unbelievable final unfolding here at the scg final break it's the swans and the Giants the Giants by 21 points at 3/4 time 3/4 time MB epic how you going thank you first time watching listening to football good stuff hope you're enjoying the game it's fantastic game to uh to watch it's uh it's a fast-paced game boys just keep running it's a hard game but yeah it's exciting it's a great game AFL football here fantastic probably going to win a decent amount let's hope you uh let's hope you get up for the Giants with your bet of course we've got another person in here he's on a multi bet he wants the Giants to get up as well tell you what though just what we said at half time the swans have got to come out and kick the first couple of goals to make this game on of course they did that but then the Giants had none of that and they just went bang bang bang did the Giants they got the next three and of course the swans got one back the Swans in that quarter kicking two goals one of course the giants three goals one so the Giants winning that quarter 21 points oh actually is pretty much the same isn't it oh no three goals sorry three goals w three goals one three goals W each in that uh third term we go both did well but the swans did look dangerous when they got on on the move a little bit early in that third quarter as I said didn't last too long the Giants reestablished their dominance and of course under this coach of the Giants when the Giants have been leading uh the last 23 times they've gone on to win the last 23 times the Giants have led in going into the last quarter they have won so that will give you a little bit of confidence there MB the the Giants can win of course 21 points as I said it's not a big margin it can be uh it can be wiped away reasonably quick but the what the form that the Giants are in they do not look like they're stopping they still look like they're full of running and of course the swans giving it there all just a quick look at the player stats just in case you want to have a look and see who there Isaac Heeney actually had not a bad quarter took an absolute screamer plenty of Hang Time on that Mark he's up to 27 he had a big third term there isak heene needs the rest of his players to come in like Chad Warner par they need to get into the game and Brody Grundy they need a few marks inside 50 and a few shots I pushed for third quarter money line not bad but I have money on jins to win the final good stuff good luck with that good luck with that I tell you what you know what it could be it just Could Be gws Giants Hawthorn Grand Final it wouldn't uh surprise me at all if it if it could pan out like that I haven't I haven't looked at the crossover yet but uh it'll be interesting anyway these are your player stats as I said Grundy was 16 uh coming with 15 there Chad Warner only 14 he's really got a lift he hasn't done a great deal in this game 14 touches nine kicks five hand balls in his re lifts just you know just like some of the others Errol golden only with the 12 Harry H himberg not too bad there just with the 12 for the Giants danan rampe uh kicked a nice goal there 11 touches he's kicked that one goal Jesse Hogan three goals not too bad for the key forward up there I'll be hoping he can do another goal or two down there and that might just close the game out for the Giants but can the Giants last that's going to be the question we got around about 30 minutes to go and we will find out who's going to win this game today is going to be a crack don't forget folks coming up after this game coming up after this game at about 7:15 Melbourne time so about an hour and 45 minutes somewhere there we'll be going to the next game which is the Brisbane Lions Carlton elimination final up there at the gabber it's going to be a fantastic one the way all these uh first Finals have been going so far with the cats Hawks winning Giants maybe I tell you what it wouldn't surprise me to see Carlton get up and win against the Brisbane lines up there anyway that's enough for me let's get back to the commentators and they will take us into the final quarter whereas the Giants by 21 points six because they've made horrendous mistakes today it's been a Calamity down back I haven't seen them as disorganized as this as aggressive in terms of releasing early and they just made dumb it's uh it's been it's been a show uh to put it nicely Joey I clean that up a fraction but this here just overc committing leading players out the back and ke he just he just couldn't believe it here I am all alone same thing again here Mills goes leaves it ground level there's his Man snaps a goal top of the goal Square easy give up goals and this I mean this is just she pressure this is the best one yeah this the best one this is the Hall of Fame one this one you just can't you just can't believe it like John might be thinking what's going on what's happened to these guys down back today but the pressure of the game the pressure of the occasion and you have to give credit to gws they pulled them the path down back they're still doing the Hogan Shuffle it's still happening down there and and they just look lost the Giants pressure has been manic can they do it for one more quarter they need to sustain it the swans will come and that's what Kingsley is saying to his troops at 3/4 time half an hour of pressure half an hour pressure will see us inle preliminary final do not slacken off the effort and next the two Jones they've got to get something out of their two superstars he has been unbelievable he can't do it all he's got 27 and two Gorden and Warner have to show up in this fourth quarter if they had to cause an upset and find a way to win this game and come from behind the Giants have not lost when they've LED at 3/4 time under Adam Kingsley in the last two years now's not the time they cough one up kingy and they haven't lost in a final against the Sydney Swans they have a remarkable record against a cross town rival we have one quarter left to play in this qualifying final it's been hot it's been spicy let's head back out to the middle Bon Center clearance coming up Tom Green had a huge final oh over the head of the defender Ms opens the corridor here for Jones and the Beautiful pass oh brilliant spoiling effort Blakey was outstanding it looked like a certain Mark coming out and now Braden Campbell's got it gets on to his left foot steers the kick to he huge couple of moments takes on Conor Iden kick was affected by a bit of pressure patley can he manufacture something there's camp Works super hard to get back down there and I've got to look at one inside their forward 50 here Sydney what a spoil bang total commitment from Blakey well to knock away the free kick as well RS to Green but his hand ball straight to Warner Chad from 45 can he bend it back not quite had too much time there Chad Warner he's been under pressure all night on his 15th disposal actually had a little bit more time there to actually maybe straighten his body towards goal but that pressure he's been under all night was in his head Midfield pierces the pass to Finn kellahan coming up for disposal number 21 [Applause] Young Gun from the Giants sends it in the Hogan Direction Jesse such a great link P forward just relieves the pressure again for his defense he's got that good balance hasn't he Rich knows when to work up for that one other times just happy to stay really deep it's like this game management he knows when and when not here's a chance Gordon kept his feet Whitfield had it interrupted chance for the swans patley runs to 50 looks for hywood IR was all over the spoil swamp's

his second goal back to 14 points swans fans get out of their chair well that is just what the game needed just some terrific terrific efforts there to turn that ball over in their for half gave them the opportunity back inside 50 they had to work hard for it but that gives him a chance just great hunting after the ground balls so important inside your forward 50 finals time get after it and things can up beautiful little pick up there from Oly Floren strong enough to keep anding Tommy Batley with a bit of Showtime well Haywood with 40 goals for the season he's kicked eight of those in his three games against gws he is a tough matchup margin back to 14 points well done green again been absolutely brilliant Blake he couldn't control it little give was great from ping to go inside 50

clumsy here please and we saw ping miss one directly in front the first quarter he gets a chance at Redemption less pressure in your mind here though going around the corner than a 20 M drop punt straight in front performed a huge roll and Errol Gordon James ping the snap brilliant the reply just for the Giant [Applause] wanted James pitl originally overlooked in a couple of drafts he's been the starting sub seven times this year he has stepped up in this final perform superly yeah he's played a great role on Errol G you're right about that but he wins the 42 it's not just about shutting it down works really hard around the contest great reward there with that goal was slipping High there Callum Mills and they've just got the answers every time Sydney threatens and gets back to a reachable margin they seem to be able to answer straight away as they did at the start of the third jaas and you read that psychology of James ping like a man who's been there and done that Richard correct Jason 20 points the margin once again gry the tap Rob bottom looks to run onto it ping tries to affect the tackle now it's Buckley versus McDonald McDonald goes to ground Buckley happy to get

flight the fingertip are not Qui Mar was actually free and loose there forward of the football no Giants Defender had picked him up but the just kick couldn't get it to him great call BS it was a miscommunication by the Giants they hadn't seen the fact that the swans had two players deep there there was a chance Gordon J Warner was on his own at that stoppage light looking for a goal this quarter has just snuck it in for a behind there's a lot of hands out questioning each other at the moment from the Giants I Reon theyve just lost control of a little bit of their setup and their instruction to each other what B was just talking about forward to the footy and then Rich mentioned Warner completely free at the stoppage just need to compose their decision making now the Giants settle it a little bit P to Ash and they look to do just that ly now the short back to that was a little a short one but Whitfield got on the end of it might feel like a house brick right now with this amount of pressure on no such thing as an easy kick right now can Hogan mark it down the line here he comes great fist mccarten to a dangerous spot Campbell want to wheel onto it hand ball over the top Parker looks around to see what's there and Buckley bustles him out well Warner's come alive in this last quarter four clearances for the day all in the last quarter so you've got to man him

come to life they found a way to pull a rabbit out of the Hat I thought it was a brilliant effort by the SWS in that fourth quarter in particular Chad War's last quarter enormous players like Lloyd and gon had big fourth quarters but for me it was the individual efforts there were three or four occasions in the last quarter where the swans were outnumbered out positioned and they found a way not to have the contest but to actually win it and that set up the win unbelievable there's not a kid in the land doesn't want to be Isaac an right now what he was able to do to put himself in a position to win the game for them time and time again and we're going to show some some vision of what this guy does that separates him from the pack and it's not how he kicks the ball or how he marks it's his work rate and he's want to influence a game of football unbelievable finish now the will a win and the star power in that fourth quarter stood out but a special mention of Bren Campbell the sub I thought he had that's exactly what you want from a sub in a final to have a massive impact he did that and I mean their desire and their want to to win that game was off the jarts and full credit to the Giants they were enormous they just look like they were out of legs in that last bit it's always that nervy margin where you're trying to just hold onto the lead and conserve it they weren't able to hit the scoreboard but this Sydney team what can you say it was one for the ages Campbell's fresh legs were telling us the Giants were slowing they weren't able to get to the contest as much it was that injection that Sydney were able to run them off their feet yeah they were yeah they just had to run and kingy touch on it some of them had the fresh lead but some of it was just will and desire you know they all would have been heavy legged the game was played at a frenetic speed but they just found a way and full credit for the hor and they turned their clearances around that last quarter you touched on Warner Jason he had seven clearances alone in the fourth term and they controlled at 1911 I mean they've been hammered in their all day and gws that were really disappointed because they they left a lot of goals on the table early and they left the door a jar for this one they had a lot of things go their way the Giants and they didn't get it done so they at least put themselves in a position to win just weren't able to close it so some positives to take away from it but they'll be heartbroken after that so Sydney are now in the box seat to secure a grand final bir because they've got a home preliminary Final in a game where it's come down to a one goal margin the path is more difficult for the Giants they've got the second chance but for Sydney it just opens up now yeah it does they're going to be back here I mean this crowd was phenomenal that it's as loud as I've heard at a game of football it's sold out and they love playing here did he smile was that a smile KY that's a smile that's as good as you get look at that saw six teeth then that's enough what about the against two the papley one set up the Heeney goal that was an extraordinary win by papley he was out of position he had a taller block coming over the top he he was unbeli ID missed the mark he handed over the back to to Haywood who snapped the goal he did as well it was Unreal wasn't it he did two or three Jason and in the end they're star Factor players of the difference aren't they I mean they're all straying for a reason you pay them the way you do to win your games like this and Jo's right what was the crowd worth at the end you're re but were they worth two to three goals in the last the crowd extraord unbelievable I mean Erol Gordon as well 11 disposals five score involvements he'd been well held he just came to life we spoken about Warner he influenced probably all the superstars and Amari who hadn't really touched it all day he stayed involved he wasn't subed down and he just got his moment there at the end to kick the match winner love the way Jake Lloyd started to push up the ground take risks went forward kicked the goal nearly kicked two goals but he was a large reason why they were able to start picking apart the Giants defensive structure blood sweating tears Warner with blood all over his face at the moment he probably needs to go and get cleaned up but that was a bruising encounter they will love the week off because the Giants threw everything at them and they had to match it yeah now they get to freshen up again and you saw the freshen up of Isaac he you mention it during the call with me you said hey that's why you rest your superstar in round 24 so that he could have the influence that he did tonight yeah forget the brown low there's there's only one thing on their mind and that guy leads the way I I just can't wait to show this Vision it's it's all inspiring stuff that just just carries this Midfield group with the class of Warner and Heeney at the top of the tree unbelievable what difference does patley make this team Jason he's worth well he's he he's an igniter for them isn't he he makes things happen it's the energy that he brings when he does something his celebrations just go berserk a couple of times that he was running around he didn't know who he was bumping into he was yelling at people but it's infectious he lifts all those players around and he makes Incredible things happen brilliant scenes on the ground now Jubilation from the swans and as you said guys it was the stars but it was seizing the moment someone like Amari who was unsighted for most of the game when the moment was there he did what he had to do a lot of the one that moments there was a there was a 50/50 ball in the middle that hay would won that he took clean there was the contest there was Nick Blakey spoiled in the first 20 seconds of that fourth quarter when Brent Daniels would have had a shot for goal there was there were moments everywhere they don't want to go inside they loing this and no one's moved crowd are loving it they're soaking it up why wouldn't you that that is one of the most amazing quarters of farest football that I've ever seen yeah it'll go down in history as one of the great finals we talk about them for years those finals that have you on the edge of your seat and 21 points is a big margin to overcome yeah and really the way the game was played they they didn't really have a right to be even that close the Giants had controlled it I mean Fair Credit we spoke about he he couldn't have done much more in those first three quarters to give them a chance he he carried them and then they all jumped on board in that fourth ter to get the win and they are as pued as I've seen any team and brightly so they get two weeks off look at Nick Lakey he's relieved as well he knows he probably hasn't had his best game there's a few of them Tom mccarten the backline probably breathing his time for Lea but now they get the butter up and they're in a golden position to get through to another grand final thought Ramy did a great job on Toby green he had no impact on the game whatsoever very disciplined didn't allow the giant Skipper to try and uh ignite his team in that last quarter either Cunningham no one talks about him his role on Brent Daniels was Sensational for the third time this year he qued Brent Daniel's influence [Applause] [Applause] [Applause] a sensational win by the Sydney Swans the books their ticket to the preliminary final which will be here at the scg in two weeks time a week's rest to recover from that bruising encounter but the road to glory becomes a little clearer and a little simpler to the Sydney s and all right folks that's it that's the end of this game what a cracking game I tell you what the Sydney Swans had no right to get up and win that one I don't know how uh yeah that was just incredible 20 odd points down in that final quarter and they got up to win holy moly there we go commiserations to the Giants Well Done to the Sydney Swans good stuff we'll see the Sydney Swans have a rest next week and then I think the Giants
