It’s time for footy finals fever

AFL 2018 Second Preliminary Final - West Coast v Melbourne

As the AFL reels from shocking allegations over the treatment of First Nations players at Hawthorn, it’s the grand final that’s in focus today and tomorrow. The Sydney Swans have jetted into Melbourne for the showdown with the Geelong Cats after navigating a chaotic Sydney airport… Geelong (which have won their last 15 games on the trot…) start as favourites, but few are writing off the plucky Swans. What is certain is that entertainers Robbie Williams and Delta Goodrem (who’s not bad with the boot/pink heels…) will rock the MCG tomorrow arvo – with or without Kylie Minogue. And for NRL fans, the North Queensland Cowboys take on the Parramatta Eels tonight, and tomorrow it’s the South Sydney Rabbitohs v Penrith Panthers in the prelim finals. The NRLW is also at the pointy end with the Roosters, Knights, Dragons and Eels playing off. Whatever happens, may the party pies be hot and plentiful…
