Next Saturday the Australian Football League (AFL) Grand Final will be played at the MCG (Melbourne Cricket Ground).
It seems strange to be playing the final of a football series at a cricket ground but it is the largest sports ground in Melbourne. The tussle will be fought between St Kilda (nickname The Saints, colours red, white and black) and Geelong (nickname The Cats, colours blue and white). The football season begins in February so by this time of year some of the players are becoming tired and the quality of play is not as good as when they are fresh.
