It will be the biggest AFL game NSW has ever seen as the GIANTS face off against the Swans in a Qualifying Final at ANZ Stadium on Saturday, September 10.
As round 23 came to a close on Sunday evening, the GIANTS finished the 2016 season in fourth place on the AFL ladder with 16 wins for the year.
The GIANTS’ 37-point win over North Melbourne on Saturday night secured them a top four spot and a double chance in their inaugural finals series.
With the Swans finishing on top of the ladder in first place, the GIANTS will take on their cross-town rivals in a blockbuster Sydney Derby in Qualifying Final 1.
With a competition-wide bye next weekend, the Swans’ home game will be played at ANZ Stadium in Sydney Olympic Park on Saturday, September 10 at 3:20pm.
GIANTS members will have exclusive access to buy tickets before the general public. Member pre-sale for this game will open through Ticketek on Tuesday, August 30 at 10am and continue until 10am Wednesday.
Tickets will then be available to the general public from 12pm on Wednesday, August 31.
The winner of the Qualifying Final will earn a week off and host a Preliminary Final in week three of the finals series while the loser will host a knock-out Semi Final in week two of the finals series.
The Swans and GIANTS have clashed twice in the 2016 season with the Swans winning by 25 points at the SCG in round three while the GIANTS took the points at home in round 12 with a 42-point win.
