    I have never, ever in my life (60 years) heard of an Aussie Rules ball referred to as a "Prune" maybe I'm just out of touch but that's a new one for me.

    3:13 not quite. Brisbane had a team, the Brisbane Bears. Fitzroy and The Brisbane Bears merged to become the brisbane lions, or as it says on the back of the jerseys "BBFFC" Brisbane Bears Fitzroy Football Club.

    Doesn’t really surprise that your mate dislikes us (the Lions) because we’re a rival of the pies and I guarantee her friend lets that be known at least 3 times a week.
    But we’re premiers now and we dethroned Collingwood in the process so I think that’s all that really matters you know that Brisbane Lions are the reigning premiers and not Collingwood.

    Prune? . . . . Prune? . . . . I played over 400 games of football and I have never, ever heard a ball called a "prune". A "pill" is an old slang term for any sort of ball (as was a "nut") 50+ years ago. A worm burner also used to be called a daisy cutter, but that was 40-50 years ago as well. Tasmania will have a team in 2028. There are 10 (yes, 10!) Australian territories and none have an AFL team. "Maggots" hasn't been used to describe umpires since they started wearing coloured uniforms in 2013 (they used to be "white maggots").

    This has got to be one of the worst GF ever. It wasn't even remotely close. It was so bad people that went to the stadium should have been given a refund. I suport the Swans , or maybe I shouldn't anymore. I can handle a team having a bad year but the Swans had a great year and then this happened. This is a wooden spoon performance. I'd almost say they threw the game they were so bad.
