Wonderful footy game. a game i thought we should have one though i imagine the old east supporters would vehemently disagree. why is it that my clearest memory of the match is sellsy miss. i sure don't blame him for the loss. as the highlights show warren dean miss an easier shot earlier in the game.

any way c'est la vie. we got them next year.

the mighty (diehard) maroons forever

I thought Phil Scott missed one in the dying stages as well MM...ah well...not to worry..as you say we well and truly got them in 86 and that flea David Bushell got cleaned up by Keeney early in the first to make it even sweeter.

The 5pt margin flattered Subi as EF had it wrapped up well b4 that and only got the margin to 5 pts after Scott goaled on the final siren

Swandog you of all people should know the game ain't over till the final siren (remember when you snached it fron the Tiggers)
The game got out to about a 4 goal lead from memory and Subi were down by 3 goals at the start of time on but were all over East like a rash from that point on. I don't think that they got it past half forward during time on and Subi could have won but didn't. Now who deserved to win is up to individuals but to say they were flattered by the scoreline is just bulldust. It was a great grand final one of the best I would imagine and the number of scoring shots was identical.

Teams have won many games coming from behind - East stopped and Subi nearly snached it - Do you think in the last few minutes the East players still thought this is a easy win, we were 3 goals up 6 minutes ago - Me thinks not.
East deserved the win because they finished with a higher score than Subi - That's as simple as the game is especially in a Grand Final.

Before a Grand Final if both teams are asked what do you want to win by ?
I'm sure the response would be the same - I don't care I just want to win.

I think you are way off the mark with your response.
