Lions Lost (boohoo)
Well I am sad to say that they couldn't do it.
Port Adelaide 17. 11. (113) def. Brisbane Lions 10. 13. (73)
The Power overcame us.
It didnt help that the umpires made some rather inconsistent free kick calls. One of which cost Brisbane 2 goals by giving away a certain goal to Jason Akermanis and allowing POower to score instead.
However to be fair I don't think that the umpires poor decisons would have made any difference in the end as the Power were comfortable 7 goal winners.
Congratulations to the Port Power. This is their first national Grand Final win ever.
Well done Brisbane for being the (almost) greatest team in history. Just being in 4 consecutive Grand Finals is enough to show what an amazing team you are, and how well coached by Lethal Leigh you are.
Now the footy is over for a few months it is time to concentrate on the motor racing. The first ever Formula 1 race in China is on tomorrow.
Kimi Raiikkonen can not now win the championship, and in fact neither can Jensen Button who is in 3rd. But Rubens Barrichello (another Ferrari driver) can, and he's not given up yet. In fact he's been quoted as saying he will not give up until its a mathematical certainty that he cannot beat Michael Schumacher. He also qualifed on pole for the race in China.
Go Rubens!
