Say it isn't so

I awoke from my sleep, feeling a bit jetlagged and a bit congested. Good thing I took that Codral.

While I slept, the Saints played Collingwood in the 2006 Pre-Season NAB Cup. My kids promised to record this for me while I was away.

So, with anticipation, I flipped open my tablet and surfed over to the AFL site.

This is a snap shot of what I saw.

OMG!!

The Saints lost by one point.

In Extra Time.

And the score is the same as the 1966 grand final (74 to 73), except this time it's reversed and the Magpies won by 1 point.

Collingwood 2.8.8 (74) def. St Kilda 1.9.10 (73)
