1. Un-frickin'-believable....a DRAW...

On to next week and I suppose ESPN will carry that, also.

What an amazing game,

2. The Australian Rules "Footy" Grand Final rematch will be Oct. 1/2..

same ESPN times and channels as the last Fri/Sat game.
*(see OP for ESPN times).

In this sport a DRAW (tie) must be completely replayed to determine a champion.

Last weeks DRAW was only the third tie in the 114 years of Australian Rules Grand Finals.
and, I believe it caught all concerned off-guard.

This Grand Final replay between Collingwood and St. Kilda should be just as exciting
as last weeks game. There will be a winner this time as extra minutes will be added in
the extremely slim chance regular time ends in a DRAW again.
