With a free swing at the top team in the comp, Giants went out there with nothing to lose. The winner would get automatic qualification for the Grand Final while the loser would live another day to play the winner of 3rd and 4th next week.
The lads gave it everything on field and hit the ground running holding the Demon's and staying with them in early exchanges. Half time was close with Demons just in front. The 3rd quarter saw the Demons kick away with a few cheap goals and went off thinking they'd breeze through the final quarter, Think again! Giants came out swinging and showed their true metal. The only thing that saved the Demons was the final siren, Giants kicking on and getting to within 9 to go down having played one of the most complete quarters of the year. Plenty of momentum to take in to the next round.
With the loss but having finished 2nd, next week Giants will play Emus (Wildcats) in the preliminary final for spot in the Grand Final and another shot at taking down the Demons and ruin their perfect season. Everything to play for, lets go Giants!
