It's funny watching this. Always brings me back. Growing up with mates who barracked for Essendon and watching them celebrate grand finals. All those years of barracking for a team around the bottom of the ladder and the gut wrench of the team moving to Sydney. Then the sheer fear that was this game. Scared of losing but afraid of the unknown if we won. By the time Leo Barry became a star, i could no longer watch it but was listening to the radio playing in another room. Afterwards went to the lake oval, sat down with my back pressed against the old stand and cried. My father died a few weeks after. Glad he got to see us win one.
Yeah it was a great contest, that's nice that your father got to watch the premiership. Go the bloods!
LEO BARRY YOU STAR ⭐️

@@Oweladon funny because I don’t actually support both teams
@@Oweladon imagine having an among us pic 🥱
Nick Davis you star
Still gives me chills
Such a good game
Judd that season was the best season I have ever seen from a player ever! He was unstoppable!
Edit: that was the 2006 season my bad, I forget the 2005 final was the exact same teams
Cousins might of gave him some
SlinKid dusty 2017?
As a Swans Fan from the United States, this was A Marvelous Game of footy and a fantastic game to end the 72 Year Premiership Drought. Hopefully, in a few years, Sydney will once again be a Premiership side with their young talent in Papley, Heeney, Heyward, McCartin, Mills, McInerney, Blakey, and Numerous Others. Anyways, Carn the Swans 🦢 🦢❤️🤍❤️🤍
Good on you mate! Cheers from Oz. Go Swans!
do you go for Swans because the only city from Australia Americans know is Sydney
@@footynerd358 No, I knew all of the Major cities in Australia including Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Canberra, Gold Coast and Adelaide. I chose the Swans because of their young talent and their recent success over the past 25 Years. Also, I have watched clips of The Chaser’s War on Everything and boy are the scenes when random American citizens who are clueless about Australia and the world in general being interviewed are pretty funny.
@@Flamingbro69 well good on ya mate its nice to see people from America enjoying our beloved sport hope you keep up with the AFL mate because this sport is probs the best sport in the world i go for adelaide but im proud you watch the AFL
Can’t say this was “as good as the sequel”. That’s only to make the other team feel better. This was once in a lifetime. One in a million. There has been none like it. And there’ll never be one like it. A diamond in the rough. One of the greatest AFL grand final wins of all time. And they’re my team. THE BLOODS!
Absolutely the greatest grand final of all time! THIS IS FOR THE BLOODS!! That call of “LEO BARRY YOU STAR!” Gives me goose bumps no matter how many times I watch it, I was 19 years old watching that game and the tension was insane and when Leo flew through the pack to take that mark I leapt up off the couch screaming it was so amazing ❤ you’re right there will never be another game like it
Wonderful grand final
Very fantastic to see this again
This is what footy should be, the ability to push your opponent and contest for a mark, or a ground ball
Greatest Grand Final of the modern era. Go Swannies!
@Soussy 🤡
@Soussy Cheers, mate. Don't stop the grind, 🤡.
I Love AFL
When the commentator said 72 years it just shocks me ahahah
Watched live from the Walkabout Pub in London around 6am, their time.
Well it wasn't 6am our time.
@@truefunksoul8638 Thank-you Captain Obvious.
@@paulie2476 I'm pretty sure you already walked away with the Captain Obvious Award by stating "in London around 6am, their time". Thanks for clearing that up.

Still hurts but its history
LRT is one of the most underrated players to have ever played
Hell yeah!
C’mon...Where’s the 2006 Grand Final? Am I right?
Imagine if they got a mark and kicked it after the siren

If you go for swans you know the Liam Barry you star

hey AFL
Lmao
@@lucasfrangiosa9882 hey frangi
Nice
All because of Nick Davis...
AFL is awesome nice
Damn 72 years
Losing kerr was the momentum Sydney needed
Go Swans!!
Y’all forget 06?
More west coast eagles videos to come this week (trigger warning for the pies fans)
2010 grand final surely
How the replay was so boring
Neutron Naar not the replay the draw!
Ok the draw was amazing 😉
2000s not 10s.
@@toby772 they can have an exception
I see this grand final as a worser 2006, the low scoring doesn't really matter I watched both of the games and like both of them the same
Go Tigers
This as one of the best finals? Bit of a stretch considering that neither team scored more than 60 points and the Leo Barry mark was its only highlight. Plus the fact that most of the game was boring Paul Roos footy
Great matches don't have to be high scoring shoot-outs. This was a classic, as was the rematch in 2006, and both qualifying finals between the teams, and the home & away match in 2006, and the grand final replay in 2007 round 1.
@@truefunksoul8638 1994 State of Origin is the only game that's both good and low scoring. Just beautiful end-to-end footy with a very high skill level on display. One of the all-time great matches. However, the 2005 Grand Final is the complete opposite of all those things that I listed before. If the '05 Grand Final didn't have the Leo Barry mark at the end, nobody would've remembered this abomination of a football game. Also, the 2006 Grand Final and that 2007 Round 1 game were both very average footy games that happened to finish with a 1 point margin. Eagles vs Swans is easily the most overrated rivalry in VFL/AFL history
@Soussy the entertainment value of a game doesn't revolve around what the scores look like. The football that was on display in the 06 GF and the 07 Round 1 game wasn't really anything special. The only thing any of those Eagles/Swans games from the mid 2000s have going for them is the close finish
@@mabiorcholappreciationpage so what do you think of 09 then? One of the ugliest matches in the history of the AFL but yet is one of the greatest matches of all time, pretty low scoring, where does that put it in your eyes?
First

Such a boring grand final, both these teams were playing garbage footy. If you think that this was better than 2017 and 2019, you have severe brain damage.
Sarcasm? Both those grand finals are extremely forgettable, at least this one was close. 2019 will surely go down as one of the worst deciders because it was such a non-contest.
Disney channel, honestly mate. Just because Richmond win doesn’t mean it’s the best
Are you serious? They were great grand finals because Richmond showed up and played entertaining footy that was hard for the defence to counter. It made everyone excited. But for this grand final, it was just slow, scrappy, low scoring, and both teams were playing terribly.
@@disneychannelartichoke1830 bro a 89 point win sucks a under a kick win is great but t might’ve been good for moron Richmond supporters like yourself but this was a great grand final now imma report you for being a moron
I get where your coming from, but as a neutral supporter I’d rather watch a close game than a smashing. For the supporters of the team. Your team showing up and smashing is a great thing but for neutral supporters is boring. Just my opinion though.
