00:00And it's not just fans heading to the stadium.
00:05The Premiership Cup has landed at the MCG after crisscrossing the nation.
00:10Our sport reporter Jess Stewart is handling it with care right now.
00:14Jess, the Swans will be hoping they're the ones hoisting that into the air tomorrow.
00:19How is the prize for silverware looking this evening?
00:22Well, Nicaria, I can tell you I've been very lucky to get my hands on this and I can tell
00:27you the silverware weighs about six kilograms.
00:30And while that might weigh a little bit for a few, it's not too heavy for no doubt for
00:36the coach, John Longmire and Dane Rampey, when they hopefully get the opportunity to
00:41lift this in front of their fans around 5.30 tomorrow afternoon.
00:46Now the Swans, it's been 12 years since they were Premiers, since they won one of these.
00:51And grand final heartbreak has been driving this side for the last couple of years.
00:562022, of course, was the last day they were here and they walked away heartbroken after
01:00that loss to the Geelong Cats.
01:02And that's what will be driving them in this grand final tomorrow.
01:06Of course, now the stage is set.
01:07Look how pristine the MCG is looking ahead of this game tomorrow.
01:13The weather will be even better than it was here today for the grand final parade.
01:17It will be even warmer.
01:18So all that's left now for John Longmire and his men is to go away tonight and have a great
01:23night's sleep.
01:24The Swans to pack the stands for this sellout grand final here at the MCG and this first
01:30ball to be bounced around 2.30 tomorrow afternoon.
