Two of the AFL’s biggest beasts, Lance ‘Buddy’ Franklin and Shane Mumford, met in a heavy collision in the match between the GWS Giants and the Sydney Swans on Sunday.
The collision summed up the tone of the match – fierce, hard, and more than anything, big!
The Giants eventually ran out the 42-point winners in what was also their 100th game in the AFL. The crowd drawn to Spotless Stadium was the largest ever seen at the venue.
But while we may all now begin bemoaning the inevitable GWS dynasty that appears to be before us, perhaps we should instead be counting our lucky stars that a collision of this magnitude did not somehow trigger the apocalypse.
