AFL Finals Week 3 AS IT HAPPENED: Why Swans aren't concerned about grand final hoodoo; Dane Rampe's flag dream in strife as MRO likely to cite Butters hit; Tom Papley goes after Willie Rioli

What a night for Swans fans.

They're into yet another grand final.

As for the Power, there will be serious questions around the future of coach Ken Hinkley.

On top of that, will veteran forward Charlie Dixon call it a day?

There's lots to unpack on both ends.

But for night, we bid you goodnight.

Thanks for following Wide World of Sports' LIVE coverage of the Swans preliminary final win over the Power!

We'll see you tomorrow night as the Cats host the Lions for that second elusive spot in the grand final.

Goodnight!

The Swans chair of Isaac Heeney and Dane Rampe and they're back in their rooms belting the song!

The fans, they love it too!

Errol Gulden had 27 touches, Heeney had 24 and Ollie Florent had 23.

Amartey kicked three and so did small forward Tom Papley.

Isaac Heeney, celebrating game 200 and Dane Rampe, with 250 games, are "lost for words" after this historic win!

"It's incredible, we've got a special team," Heeney said on 7.

"We'll be back in the ring, that's all we want to eb doing as a club," Rampe added.

And they could be meeting Geelong, who defeated them in the 2022 grand final, next week.

"We're pumped. We're a different team than 2022 (grand final loss to Geelong)," Heeney said.

Right now, Sydney has made the most grand finals since 2000 with seven to their name!

Geelong will host Brisbane at the MCG tomorrow afternoon, for that second grand final spot.

THAT IS ALL!

SYDNEY ARE INTO THE GRAND FINAL!

The Swans 14.11 95 defeat Port Adelaide 8.11 59.

It's a comfortable 36-point win and these Swannies are into the 2024 grand final!

Isaac Heeney was pumped on the bench and now, these boys get to celebrate!

Nick Blakey looking a bit ginger after being accidentally stepped on.

This game is well and truly over now.

Gulden has 27 touches and have gained 550 metres.

Insane.

This Swans side are heading to another grand final.

Two goals in a row for the Power! And it's the first time they've done that tonight.

You betcha!

First it was Boak, now it's skipper Connor Rozee!

The margin, now reduced to 34 points. Can the Power do this?

They need six goals in just under 10 minutes.

Ryan Burton took his eyes completely off the ball and knocks Heeney.

It's a free kick and Heeney kicks truly from 30 metres out, directly in front.

I think this is game, Swans fans.

Swans 14.8 92 lead port 6.11 47.

That's a 45-point lead in this final term.

Cats and Lions, beware, whoever meets these Swans in the big dance, they're getting better by the minute.

Logan McDonald is right off the ground and is officially done for the night!

He has signalled to the doctors that he isn't good. He hobbled off to the Swans bench, with what is an ankle complaint.

The ice bucket is out, the foot is in. The Swans will take him out of this game and take him out now.

Swans not risking anything here, considering their lead is still 40 points.

Are the Power done?

Sydney 13.7 85 lead Port 6.9 45.

It's a 40-point deficit the Power need to make up, meaning they need to basically kick their enture score from the last three quarters, in one.

Errol Gulden is just a superstar. He has 23 disposals.

Ollie Florent has 21 for the Swans, too.

This is quickly turning into a demolition job.

Fear Sydney, they're coming for a grand final spot.

OH WOW!

Sydney, this is just turning into a demolishing.

Travis Boak misses by foot, you just cannot do that around Chad Warner himself.

Warner is a freak, sdie stepping and dodging and kicking Sydney's 13th goal of the night!

The margin is now stretched out to a whopping 40 points.

Four goals this quarter from direct turnover for the Swans.
