Yeh I add 83/84/90 to that as well I suppose what I felt on Saturday was like an uprising from a sleeping giant amidst this AFL centric world

Dead right mate all of those GF's were fantastic and the vibe after the game on Saturday was spine tingling as you well know but 82 has stuck with me forever maybe because it was my first winning GF experience and our first since 63 plus the WAFL was the king of the town back then but it was HUGE.
Special mention must be made to the Prelim & GF in 2010 which were also amazing scenes & the 08 Prelim Final at Joondy when we came back from 8 goals down at one point and the chaos with the 2 sirens meant we got to celebrate twice!

Haha yeh mate I remember sprinting onto the ground twice like a 10 yr old after 08 Prelim

don't worry mate, EF got well grounded the following week, when they got a GF white wash ......that 82,83 & 84 side had it all from memory, definitely would of been exciting times down at Basso in those days, that is for sure.....

It would seem there are a few jealous opposition supporters out there of the passion displayed currently by Swans & WP fans ..it must be hard for some to face the facts their own mob are completely irrelevant in their own particular community!
