Geelong capped a sensational season with comfortably the biggest win in AFL grand final history, a 24.19 (163) to 6.8 (44) thrashing of Port Adelaide at the MCG.
The 119-point win, in front of a crowd of 97,302, dwarfed Hawthorn's 96-point win over Melbourne in 1998 as the greatest margin in an AFL/VFL premiership decider.
It's ironic that port power only got 44 point as that is the amount of years it took geelong to win another Flag. The fans and player will party long and hard.

If you buy ACER I wish you luck
I had the same problems with ACER or more to the point Highpoint repair centre in sydney. I called them and emailed them and all i got was lip service. This was my first reply, it looked promising.
Thankyou for highlighting your concerns with Acer/Highpoint.
I am part of the Customer Service Team here at Highpoint and deal with such complaints.
If possible, could you please advise the serial number or reference number corresponding to your unit.
I will further assess the issue for you.
Thankyou for your time.
Best Regards
that was on Wednesday, August 08, 2007 11:15 AM .I got my lap top back on Wednesday 19th of september. Only to find the had not returned my power adaptor ,making the pc usless after an hour .I thought ok no problem call them and have it sent down. Sure enough the person on the phone said that is dreadful i will get onto it straight away and get back to you today'wednesday' silly me i believed him. Frday morning still nothing not even a call, so once again i'[m on the phone and get through to another person that asures me he will get action today.
Guess what ?
I have had with this service even the laptop they repaired come back covered in grime .All this from a company this size, it must be some kind of joke.
I WAS told by one of them they where in the middle of changes there , not our problem even if its true.
Buying ACER I have found is just the begining of you troubles if you want service, so before you decide try a google search or click a label below.The video is extreme but I have felt like doing this with my laptop.
http://www.avoidacer.com/ I am not doing this out of anger or spite,I am just frustrated by their lack of care and their treatment.

ABBOTSFORD, WISCONSIN - Two men who were driving the same pickup truck, have been caught drink driving in Wisconsin.
Police found that 43-year-old Harvey Miller, a double leg amputee, was steering the truck.
Officers say 55-year-old Edwin Marzinske was operating the accelerator and brake pedals.
The police report stated that Miller personally confessed he was too drunk to drive, but argued he wasn't actually driving the truck because he couldn't operate the accelerator or the brake. Officers disagreed and cited him for drink driving, third offence.
Marzinske was cited for his second drink driving offence.
Both men were also cited for operating a vehicle after revocation.

More is less
POOR DEMI
It's been a challenging few years, being the age I am. Almost to the point where I felt like, well, they don't know what to do with me. I am not 20. Not 30,” she revealed to Red magazine. “There aren't that many good roles for women over 40. A lot of them don't have much substance, other than being someone's mother or wife.”
Demi’s frustration with Hollywood’s attitudes toward “women of a certain age” was evident throughout her interview with the publication. “If we are told we are not valuable once we hit 30, it is a problem,” she said. “We all have more to give … We can't just wait for something to happen. We have to say, ‘I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take it any more.
OK Demi what about Meryl Streep,Helen Mirrin, Glen close Judy Dench Judy Davis....
maybe its not an age problem after all 'talent counts'
