A week ago, it was a fantastic finish to the 2010 Australian Football League season with St Kilda making a fantastic rally from 24 down to pull level with regular season champion Collingwood in the AFL Grand Final. Except… it was not over. By the rules of the league, a draw in the Grand Final results in a replay of the championship game, something that has only occurred twice previously with the last time 33 years ago in 1977.
The replay likely may be the last by the way the talk had been last week following the final horn as it was a surreal scene with exhausted and bewildered looks upon the players’ faces on the ground.
