03:24square players will set themselves goods fall there by Impy Molan tackle

04:27round ball opportunity here again a swarm of players around the footy

04:35there'll be a ball up he went three times three balls in dispute there so

04:43Impy and Van Meel to contest this ruck deal Impy won the tap Johnson Baker got

04:50it to Ward and gone

06:04so if the opportunity has gone for the Devils they'll be left lamenting that

06:08third fourth quarter when they are unable to close it out ball up it'll be

06:13Impy and Van Meel who spent high high minutes near all in the ruck he's been

06:19soldier-like but here pass fight out there by Bewley Cairns has been

06:23important in this final in this fifth term extra time Lahou Rae sends the ball
