THERE will be plenty of noise in homes and venues across the Southern Grampians Shire tomorrow as the Collingwood Magpies take on the Brisbane Lions in the AFL Grand Final at 2.30pm.

With a lot of recent history between the competing sides after the Lions knocked off the Pies in both the 2002 and 2003 deciders, the Pies will be out for revenge.
