The Sydney Swans secured a convincing 36-point victory over Port Adelaide in the AFL preliminary final, winning 14.11 (95) to 8.11 (59) and advancing to the grand final. Key players Isaac Heeney and Dane Rampe celebrated their milestone matches, with Heeney expressing his gratitude for the team's support and excitement for the upcoming challenge. Rampe, reflecting on his journey from being overlooked in the draft to achieving 250 games, shared his gratitude towards the club. The Swans' performance was highlighted by their dominance in the second quarter, although concerns arose with Logan McDonald suffering a foot injury. The Swans will face either Geelong or Brisbane in the grand final, with the team feeling more mature and prepared than in their previous finals appearance in 2022.
