The Eagles got their revenge on Sydney in the sequel to their 2005 classic and were somehow able to top the performance of the previous year. The Swans fought back from a 25-point half time deficit to cut it to under a goal for much of the final quarter as the two sides traded blows. In the end the siren sounded as the ball was thrown in right on the spot where Leo Barry took that famous mark and it was the Eagles to had their noses in front.
