Tues, Sept 30 '03 "What a shocker! The AFL 2003 GRAND FINAL: BRISBANE Lions Defeated COLLINGWOOD Magpies" Batmans

How about this, the same two teams playing off for the flag two years in a row! Last time the result was only 9 points, and it was a close tough game, which was hailed as the best Grand Final in the last few years, this time ........the Awesome Lions ate the Magpies alive!!!!!

Without their gun player, Anthony Rocca it was tough, and In my opinion coach Mick Malthouse got 'outcoached' by "Lethal" Leigh Mathews, The Magpies were missing 1 player from there normal line up, and the line up that beat the lions 3 weeks ago, but Mick moved  a key defender to the forward line, which threw the balance of the defence out, and that player had no effect in the forward line, I think that this was a telling move in the whole confidence of the backline, who were under pressure all day, from a rampant Lions midfield which completely outclassed the Magpies midfield, while the Lions players went on the hunt, the Magpies were not to be seen or felt in anyway shape or form, they were "missing in action" 

The only Magpies that could hold their heads up would be Josh Fraser, Simon Prestigiacomo & Alan Didak, and only Jonathan Brown was really beaten on the day in the Lions line up, the rest were very very strong! The Lions had a few suspect injuries to a couple of their stars, but as I said in my preview, real stars perform in the most adverse conditions even when there is a cloud over their fitness. Brisbane was the reigning 2 time champion, and now is the 3 time champion, the last time a team won 3 in a row was 1955,56,57 by Melbourne, and the time before that was Collingwood with 4 in a row in 1927,28,29, & 1930, this shows how hard a feat this is, and this Brisbane team should be labelled as one of the greatest teams in the history of our fantastic game. 

I am a hardened Collingwood supporter, with many years of pain from losing grand finals (Collingwood have only won 1 of their last 12 attempts, have played in 40 Grand Finals, more than a 1/3 of the total, with only 14 wins) it doesn't get any easier, is was unbelievable how a team could play it's worst game in 2 years in the most important game, pressure is a factor, and clearly Brisbane can handle the fire!, Collingwood must reassess themselves if they are to recover from this!!!!! Brisbane is setting the standard and Collingwood are miles behind.

All the best for the Cricket season, Come on Aussie's, and the European Soccer season, Go Barcelona, Man Utd , & Juventus!!! Signing off for the AFL season of 2003" Batmans, Melbourne

The AFL Grand Final scores were the Brisbane Lions 20.14 (134) defeated the CollieWobble Magpies 12.12 (84) in a game that a fellow Calgary Kangaroos player described to me as "Myk Aussie the Magpies were soft. Many times they appeared to be not going 100%" 

A great effort by the Lions as this was their 3rd Premiership in a row. Make sure to check out my AFL Grand Final Special as I am in Lionland in Melbourne.

Calgary Kangaroos defeat the Irish Gaelic guys 108 to 42! By: Moose Salzer

Yesterday, Sunday, September 28th the Calgary Kangeroo's faced the Calgary Irish in an Aussie Rules Footy game at the Calgary Irish Rugby grounds by the Calgary Airport. I filmed most of the match for MYKwebTV. Myk Aussie played in Defence for most of the game with an occasional run on the ball.

The match started at 2:30 p.m. and lasted until 4:30 p.m. The game was played in four 15 minute quarters. At the half the score was 78-30 in favor of the Roos. The Irish were at a bit of a disadvantage since they were more used to Gaelic rules however they handled the Aussie Footy better than expected as Gaelic footy is played with a round soccer type ball. Both teams played hard and fair.

Some of the stars of the game for the Irish were numbers 23, 12 and 10. Both teams pushed the ball up the field hard and the Irish scored more one point goals. The Kangaroos scored more six and three point goals and won the game 108-42. Myk Aussie made several nice plays and 'Roos Rosey" one of the stars of the Phoenix tournament set up several of his teammates for goals. Numbers 10, 16, 18 & 24 played especially good for the 'Roos. 

There was a decent crowd there of people watching yesterday as well. Afterwards the guys went into the Irish pub there at the park and had a few coldies while watching the Raiders come from behind win over San Diego in the NFL, as the CFL game was not on TV. A great day, a great hard fought game & again many friends were made" Moose

Batman's AFL GRAND FINAL 2003 Preview Myk Aussie the weekend turned in the results that brought the two best teams in the competition back together for the greatest game, the AFL GRAND FINAL 2003

As per my predictions last week this is what went down!

AFL PRELIMINARY FINAL ONE: Collingwood v Port Adelaide ( At MCG in Melbourne)

As was the case for both games this week it was a knock out game, loose and it is off for the end of season, team trip. Win, and you have a crack at winning the game that all teams are vying for "the AFL Grand Final"  Port started the game with 2 quick goals and looked ominous, but the Magpies settled, and by the 1st break they were comfortably 3 goals clear, Port never really got anywhere near the Magpies after that, and really the last couple of minutes of that 1st qtr showed how poor the Port was going to be. With just a few minutes to go in the 1st qtr, Port were three goals behind and instead of trying to get a goal or two before the end of the qtr to be in the hunt, they started wasting time in their own backline....that showed how weak of mind and gutless they had become under the pressure cooker atmosphere of finals footy. From here on in the Magpies ground them into the MCG dirt and shattered their confidence so much that they even missed easy opportunities to get near in the second term. Collingwood now go into their second consecutive Grand Final, they are strong and confident, but the only sour point for them is that their speared and strongman Anthony Rocca will surely miss the Grand Final because of a waywood elbow that collected Ports Laid, and got him reported. He will miss two weeks!!

AFL PRELIMINARY FINAL TWO: Sydney v Brisbane (in Sydney)

As I said last week, Sydney destroyed Port Adelaide in their encounter two weeks ago, and received a well needed two week rest for this game against Brisbane, but in the end it wasn't enough to get them over the line against the rampaging Lions, the Lions got away from Sydney in the second term, but the Swans fought back to be only 3 points down at the final break, and looked stronger than the Lions, however, that was not the case, the Lions big guns came out blazing in the final term and blew Sydney away with 3 early goals which broke the back of the spirited Swans. It just shows how strong the Lions are and even with their backs against the wall they can not be underestimated, as they have shown more than once in this finals campaign. Sydney bruised and battered leave the finals as overachievers and will not be overlooked so much next year, a great result for a team that, by all the expert opinions, was supposed to finish last!!

Here we go ...here we go...here we go!!!!!!

The AFL 2003 GRAND FINAL:  COLLINGWOOD (Magpies) V BRISBANE (Lions)

How about this, the same two teams playing off for the flag two years in a row! You would have trouble writing the script for these two teams to get where they are after half the season was gone, but the second half of the season has seen a lot of success for both teams, as has the finals series. Tomorrow they go at each other again, however there seems to be a big difference from last time, at this time last year Brisbane were hailed as unbeatable, and Collingwood had no chance, in the end the Lions did get up and win their second flag in as many years, but they got a scare as the Magpies nearly pinched it in a 9 point game, which was hailed as the best Grand Final in the last few years.

This year however sees the Magpies a year wiser, stronger, and you would think more determined, to achieve their goal of taking the flag back to their mecca...Victoria Park. Without their gun player, Anthony Rocca it will be tough, but there seems to be an undercurrent of belief in the team at the moment that this is their time, and who would begrudge them! no real football fan would, that is for sure! (maybe the Carlton fan, but they are not real footy fans!).
The lions have a few suspect injuries to a couple of their stars, but inevitably real stars perform in the most adverse conditions even when there is a cloud over their fitness. Brisbane is the reigning 2 time champion, and should not be underestimated in any way shape or form, they are a dangerous side in every way, and given a sniff they will eat you alive!!! The Pies will have to go hard and just not give them an inch of free space and they will have a chance. For my part I have to go for my HOT MAGPIES to take their 15th flag.

GO PIES!!!!!" Batman's in Melbourne

Seems like they are getting ready for a big AFL Grand Final Booze up! 
Hundreds of VB stubbies stolen September 24, 2003 SOMEONE in NSW is in for a hell of a barbecue after 700 cartons of beer were stolen from a warehouse near Canberra overnight. The grog, worth more than $20,000 was stolen by clearly sober, well-organised thieves who had planned the raid down to the last detail, police said. Two company forklifts at the Carlton United Breweries warehouse in Queanbeyan were used to lift 10 pallets of beer onto what must have been a large truck. 

They have now asked barbecue planners, beachgoers, picnic-makers, business owners and the general public to be on the lookout for offers of cheap booze over the coming weeks. The haul includes 420 cartons of Melbourne and Victoria Bitter stubbies and 160 cartons of long-necks worth nearly $21,000. The alarm was only activated when the thieves opened a roller-door to remove the stock, leaving them just a limited amount of time to escape. However, when security officers arrived on scene there was no sign of the robbers, Acting Sergeant Rod Parker said. 

An unknown number of thieves forced their way into an office at the Kendall Avenue premises and grabbed keys to the warehouse, the officer said. "The theft appears to have been well-planned and well executed," he added. "They've had fair knowledge of the workings of the premises." "I would appeal for anyone offered cheap beer, including hotel or bottle shop employees to contact us immediately," Sgt Parker said." Myk Aussie

Star Collingwood onballer Nathan, Adelaide Crows tough man onballer Mark Ricciuto and Sydney Swans Adam Goodes tied for the most prestigious Award in Australian sport, The Best & Fairest Player in the AFL The Brownlow Medal. That is a great result as Buckley and Ruccioto have been stars for many years. 

Lions to 3 beat & win the AFL Grand Final! We will be watching it here in Western Canada late on Friday night." Myk Aussie
 
Fri, Sept 19, 03 "Brownlow Medal leak according to Dessy "Mr Intl Football"! Colliewobble Magpies to defeat the PAP Smears! Brisbane Lions to defeat Tammy & Charlene’s Sydney Swan’s! I join me new Calgary Kangaroo mates last night and watch the Lions defeat me Adelaide Crows on Fox SportsWorld! Also highlights of the PAP’s too good for the Bombers on a rainy day in me home city of Adelaide! ” Myk Aussie

From Dessy Mr Intl Football " Hey Myk Aussie How is the website going? You seem to have some pretty cool stuff on sale, I am keen for a jacket so will invest once work picks up. Waiting for the big game..Just 2 hours away. Port v Pies. Should be a cracker game. Apparently there was a leek with the Brownlow, came from the same source as the last 2 years did. And it was correct with Akermanis and Black. So get your money on Robert Harvey if this source is correct again! I think Waganeen has a huge chance. Ruciutto is amongst it also. When do you think you will be back this way?" Dessy

Thanks Dessy you star Aussie Rules Football "traveling man" Dessy has played everywhere, Toronto, San Fran, Gawler, Mt Gambier, Cairns, Evanston Green. Mr Intl Football I call him.

Half way around the world and I felt right at home last night as I joined my new team the Calgary Kangaroo’s at the Flying Emu in downtown Calgary. The big screen provided great viewing as Alistar Lynch was the main difference between the Lions and the Crows. The strongly built full forward was brilliant for the Lions while Brett Burton for the Crows was our best. After listening to Big Stewy abuse nearly every player that wasn’t a former Bomber we then saw 10 minutes of highlights from the Port Adelaide Power who are in my home city commonly known as the “PAP Smears” defeat Stewy’s favorite team the Essendon Bombers. Stewy was a star ruckman for the Canadian Kangaroos during the recent USAFL/CDN Aussie rules Footy Carnival in Phoenix ’s.

During the evening Chris one of our star Calgary Kangaroo’s players and current coach provided me with his favorites for this Monday nights Brownlow Medal, the Best and Fairest Player in the AFL.

Chris has gone for Gavin Wanganeen and Michael Voss to win with Nathan Buckley a real chance. Both Gavin and Michael are past winners and proven vote getters with the men in white or yellow I now see while it would be good to see Nathan Buckley a absolute superstar for the Colliwobbles finally win the biggest individual award in Australian sport. Stewy says Gavin has had a better year in the back pocket for the PAPs than the year he won the Brownlow for the Essendon Bombers. Michael Voss has again been sensational on the ball for the reigning premiers the Brisbane Lions.

Chris’s other Brownlow Medal tips include,

West Coast Eagles: Ben Cousins, Michael Pavlich, Peter Bell Sydney Swans: Adam Goodes, Paul Williams the former Magpie Hawthorn: Shane Crawford Crows: Brett Burton.

This weeks tips I’m going for the Colliewooble Magpies over the PAP’s and the Brisbane Lions to defeat the Sydney Swans while Chris has gone for his beloved Swans. I’m sure my MYKwebTV Cwoc stars Ms Winterpeg Tammy and Regina Cwoc Charlene will be both hoping the Swans win. Tammy can be seen helping me with the AFL tips in “CFL Grey Cup MYKwebTV” while the beautiful Charlene the winner of the best barmaid in Canada gladly changed in my car into her Red & White Sydney Swans bikini for me during a recent MYKwebTV filming day. Wow!

Next weekend will be big as we watch the AFL Grand Final here in Canada and then us Calgary Kangaroos take on the Irish guys in the 2^nd Gaelic Football game. We will be keen to win “their game” this weekend after narrowly loosing 3 weeks ago to the Irish boys. If our star skipper Troy Rose plays we will be a big chance. Let’s hope its not snowing next Sunday for the big clash" Myk Aussie

Mon, Sept 15, 03 "Oh no the Crows done! Batman's AFL Finals report!" Myk Aussie

From Batmans in Melbourne, Myk Aussie here we are again after another great weekend of AFL finals footy,

As I said last week the following games were on

AFL SEMI FINAL ONE: Port Adelaide vs Essendon (in Adelaide)

I went for Essendon in this one as they were in fine form, Their captain James Hird is was on fire, and Port were in all sorts of trouble with their inability to perform in finals! However, I was proven wrong, just when you give someone a good wrap, they inevitably let you down, and that is what Essendon did, Port came out with plenty of brimstone and fire in the opening flurry, the Bombers tried to combat this with their own style of tough footy, but for a change, and as per last years exact game, Port stood tall and in the end went on to record a sound victory over a team that will have to go back to the drawing board, as their coach Kevin Sheedy has done many times in his 18 years as their mentor. 

Port did what Fremantle didn't, they held Essendon's champion captain, James Hird, to just seven possessions, and none were telling, Port stopped the heart, and the Essendon body couldn't go on. Port now have a chance to get through to the Grand Final, but they will have to get passed the Collingwood magpies, Port Coach Mark Williams, and ex magpies captain will know too well that this will be an even tougher game that the Essendon battle, but will feel much better with a win under his teams belt, the mental battle begins today to get his team up for next Saturday.

AFL SEMI FINAL TWO: Brisbane vs Adelaide (in Brisbane)

This was a very tough one to pick, there were two very experienced teams, Brisbane had home ground advantage, but injury worries, Adelaide were in good form, but have to go to the Lions den, I believed It was The Crows best chance, but my better judgment said to pick Brisbane in a very tough encounter. I was on the ball with this one, some of the Lions may have been injured, but a few pain killer injections before the game, they came out and slowly mauled The Crows. 

The Crows were always playing catch up and the third qtr, (the premiership qtr) was a beauty, the lead changed 5 times before The Lions stamped their roar on the game, they were certainly the "kings of their jungle" in this encounter, The Crows will fly home with their wings clipped and their ego's brought back to earth, they are in a bit of trouble with an aging side of ex champions to work with and will have to look seriously at who stays and who goes next year.... that includes the coach! Brisbane on the other hand must now firm up as the best pick for the flag, they showed that they should not be underestimated, and as the winner of the last two premierships, they became stronger as the night wore on, Sydney must again be on the back foot for this upcoming encounter with the roaring Lions!

This coming weeks games are

AFL PRELIMINARY FINAL ONE: Collingwood v Port Adelaide ( At MCG in Melbourne)

As is the case for both games this week it will once again it will be a knock out game, loose and it is off for the end of season team trip. Win, and you have a crack at winning the game that all teams are vying for "the AFL Grand Final" Currently with home ground advantage you would have to go for the magpies over Port, but in finals footy it all rarely matters, as it boils down to what happens on the day, it is not the best of three or five etc, etc. Collingwood have had the weeks rest after their great win against Brisbane two weeks ago and they are fine tuning their strong team oriented approach to this game, Port will have to play at their best, physically and mentally to beat the pies, and after a great win over Essendon they would be confident, however I will have to be totally biased and pick the mighty Collingwood magpies for this one, they are quietly going about their business to secure a second crack at the Grand final after loosing to Brisbane in last years 9 pt thriller. I think they have proven that they were the 2nd best team last year, and this year they will want to prove that they are no.1

AFL PRELIMINARY FINAL TWO: Sydney v Brisbane (in Sydney)

Well Sydney absolutely destroyed Port Adelaide in their encounter two weeks ago, and received a well needed two week rest for this game against Brisbane, but in achieving that win they still have major injury worries with 5 of their best still in doubt for this week, and as we all know, this team has performed well beyond even the most ardent fans expectations, this week will be no exception, they have beaten the reigning champion 'Brisbane', twice this year in the home and away games. However, as I said earlier, this is finals footy, and currently there is no one better at it than Brisbane, who, as I described above are now back into firm contention for their 3rd consecutive Grand Final, and not many would dispute it. Sydney would have to put in a superhuman effort to beat the lions, and in my position I can't see that happening so I will pick the Brisbane Lions to have the Swans for din dins!

Once again what a great weekend of footy, and the way it has shaped up, this week it is looking like a repeat of last years Grand Final, but,...a big but, this is not a given! and the games will have supporters on the edge of their seats, and at the end it will be down to 2! BRING IT ON!!!!!" Batmans

"Thanks Batman's another great AFL Footy Finals report" Myk Aussie

Mon, Sept 8, 03 "Crows hammer the Eagles! Pap's loose to the Swans! Lions defeat the Magpies! Bombers defeat the Dockers! Well well well! It's AFL finals footy again here in Oz! For the 1st time in the history of AFL/VFL, all the non Victorian teams are in the finals!" Myk Aussie

An excellent report on the 1st week of the finals from Batmans in Melboure 

Victoria being the origin of the AFL as the VFL, and being the premier football state in the country for a 100years. Being a Victorian I may not necessarily like it, but, it is good for football an a national level, so I say to one and all......................

Bring it on!

The teams finished in the following order!

Current Standings

So the way it works is the bottom 4 play off in the first week and the losers exit, the top 4 play off and the losers play the winners of the bottom 4 and the winners get a weeks rest!

Essendon v Fremantle

Game 1:   Fremantle in the finals for the first time had home ground advantage to host Essendon, one of the premier Victorian teams, Unfortunately for Fremantle, finals experience overcame them and Essendon were brutal in their demolition of the inexperienced dockers! Playing hard tough footy the Bombers rolled the dockers by 50+ points. The Bombers are flying high, and with their captain, James Hird in sublime form, the other teams should not underestimate them.

Adelaide v West Coast

Game 2:   Adelaide, two time champions in the last 10 years, had the opportunity to host a young and talented West coast team who have performed beyond expectation this year. Both teams came into the finals in less than perfect form, but when the finals start it is a whole new 'ball game' As in the 1st game, experience showed through and The Crows easily accounted for The Eagles, and literally clawed them into making poor choices with their disposals enabling The Crows to rebound and capitalize with goals. The end result was a 56 pt win to The Crows! ....Watch out for this team, they are experts at finals footy and on their day are formidable.

Collingwood v Brisbane

Game 3:   Brisbane have won the Flag for the past two years, and are arguably the toughest team in the competition, These two teams played off in the grand final last year with The Lions rolling The Magpies by 9 pts. The Lions have one 8 of the last 9 encounters, but the young Magpies were pumped after a great win over The Bombers in the last home and away game before the finals. This time The Magpies held on all game in a thriller, that wasn't won until the last 5 mins when young Didak broke Brisbane's back with two quick goals with less than 5 mins to go. The Magpies get a weeks rest, which would have been vital for Brisbane, who have several injury worries. But do not dismiss The Lions as they are the reigning champions, and even when injured they can come out and maul any opposition.

 Port Adelaide v Sydney

Game 4:   Port Adelaide have finished on top of the ladder for the second year in a row, last year they went straight out of the finals with two poor losses, and are now the team with the most pressure on them as they have only won 1 finals match in seven appearances. Sydney were predicted to finish in the bottom half of the ladder at the beginning of the year with a young team and a 1st year coach, they have blown all away and are a genuine contender. Well sadly for Port Power they were true to form and a magnificent Sydney blew them away in the 1st half to be ahead by 40 points, the second half was a tough struggle with Port fighting back and Sydney loosing players to injury, however Sydney manages to hold on in a courageous effort by 12 points. Sydney have now proved themselves and all the other teams best beware! Port are once again in all sorts of trouble as their mental strength is more questionable than ever and other teams will have no mercy!

There you have it two games true to form and experience and two upsets, with Port losing it has thrown the whole playoffs into an unexpected draw, and this coming week we will have two teams with a rest, Collingwood, and Sydney, Sydney will especially need the rest to get several of their injured list back on the park.

The games to be played are:

AFL SEMI FINAL ONE: Port Adelaide vs Essendon (in Adelaide)

I will have to go for Essendon in this one as they are in fine form, Their captain James Hird is on fire, and Port are in all sorts of trouble with their inability to perform in finals!

AFL SEMI FINAL TWO: Brisbane vs Adelaide (in Brisbane)

This is a very tough one to pick, two very experienced teams, Brisbane will have home ground advantage, but injury worries, Adelaide are in good form, but have to go to the Lions den, It is The Crows best chance, but against better judgment I will pick Brisbane in a very tough encounter, where there will be some blood spilled!!!!

What a great weekend of footy, and the way it has shaped up, the next two weeks will have supporters on the edge of their seats, and also have them talking about the many permutations of who will play who!

GO PIES!!!!!!" Batmans in Melbourne
