LIVE UPDATES: SFNL grand final day

SENIOR FOOTBALL

FULL TIME: It's over at City Oval. Irymple have defeated Imperials, 9.12 (66) to 8.11 (59).

THREE QUARTER TIME: It was more of an arm-wrestle in the third quarter, broken up by Irymple's Michael Dimasi and Imps' Mason Middleton each kicking their first.

The crucial goal came when Dowdy kicked his second, bringing the Swallows back within a kick.

With a quarter to play Imperials lead 7.7 (49) to 6.8 (44).

HALF TIME: In the second quarter, Irymple wasted no time getting things moving as Ben Duscher won the first clearance and sent it to the advantage of Dan Coghlan, who swung around to put his side in front.

James Flack calmly slotted a long-range set shot and Nick Pezzaniti snapped truly to continue their side's hot start.

The Swallows were generating the bulk of the quarter's inside 50s, but a well-timed kick from Imps' Jayden Fox set up a Jordan Bates goal against the run of play.

Sam Butterworth then landed a 50m shot soon after and a pair of late-term goals from Ryan Hards and Fox sent the Green and Whites into the main break with an eight-point advantage, 6.3 (39) to 4.7 (31).

QUARTER TIME: In the first quarter, Imperials drew first blood through an Alex Douglas goal, but Irymple soon responded with a Ryan Dowdy major.

In a low-scoring first term, a 50-metre penalty for infringing Jarrod McNally's protected area proved costly for the Swallows, allowing the big man an easy goal square set shot.

At the other end, the Swallows couldn't quite capitalise on chances to take the lead, trailing by three at the first change of ends, 2.1 (13) to 1.4 (10).
