In 2005, the Sydney Swans ended the longest premiership drought in VFL/AFL history and Leo Barry entered footy folklore.
Leo reveals he stills feels a "tingle up the spine" as he recalls his heroics and thinks he would have marked the ball "7 out of 10" times.
17 years later, the Swans are striving for their sixth flag and Barry even admits the man standing at full forward now, Lance Franklin, has exceeded the impact of the greatest goal kicker of all-time, Tony Lockett.
Join the 2005 premiership Swan and host Shane McInnes as they discuss Sydney's drought breaking premiership on Footy: Then and Now.

Jason Akermanis - Preliminary Final: The AFL's "inside job" on the Lions
Heading into the 2004 season, the Brisbane Lions were on a quest to become just the second club in VFL/AFL history to win four premierships in a row.
In this episode, Jason Akermanis shares his disappointment with the AFL, revealing he still believes the league didn't want the Lions to win four flags in a row, which is why they were made to play their "home" preliminary final against Geelong at the MCG.
While they ultimately got over the line against the Cats, the Lions ran out of steam the following week against Port Adelaide and lost the grand final.

Travis Cloke - Semi Final: The Draw
In 2007, for just the fifth time in VFL/AFL history, a final ended in a draw.
In this episode, Travis Cloke breaks down how the Pies knocked out the Eagles in straight sets.
The former Pie laughs at the poor goal kicking to start the game and how it complemented his career, how that inevitably led to his retirement and admits he believes he left "200 goals out there".
He jokingly blames a teammate for the 2011 grand final loss and explains why the AFL needs to change the rules of a draw in the home and away season.
Join the 2010 Collingwood premiership player and host Shane McInnes as they re-live this finals classic, on Footy: Then and Now.
