Grand Final - Sunday 19 September 2004
Reserves Grand Final
Williamstown v Port Melbourne
Date: Sunday 19th September
Time: 11.00am
Venue: Optus Oval, Melways Ref: Map 29 G12
Admission Prices:
Adults: $20
Concession/Pensioners: $12

The reserves side have advanced to the 2004 VFL Grand Final following a hard fought victory over North Ballarat.
The reserves got the jump in the first quarter, kicking the first 4 goals of the match. They maintained an advantage at half time before North Ballarat fought back and drew level with the towners at three-quarter time. Williamstown continued to attack in the last quarter, skipping out to a 25 point lead, which was eventually whittled down to 10 points at the final siren.
The win takes the reserves into their fourth Grand Final in a row. Having won the Grand Final in 2002 and 2003, the players know what is required of them to win a third straight premiership.

GF preview - local paper.

Hat-trick on the line
Anthony Eames, the 1991 Liston Trophy winner, and his all conquering Williamstown reserves side are on the runway to win a hat-trick of VFL premierships.
The young Seagulls earned their stripes for a trip to Carlton's Optus Oval on Sunday with a 10-point win over North Ballarat in last Sunday's preliminary final at Port Melbourne.
They meet traditional rivals Port Melbourne in the curtain-raiser to the VFL senior grand final between the 'Borough and Sandringham.
Port Melbourne are coached by Williamstown football legends Saade Ghazi and Andrew Gibson.
The match, which starts at 11am, will also signal the retirement of Seagulls dual reserves premiership skipper Matthew Cape.
Williamstown administrator Brendan Curry said 25-year-old Cape would be turning his attention to Premier Cricket with Essendon this summer as a left arm bowler and batsman with a view to playing in the UK in the winter.
Williamstown's standouts last weekend were 22-year-old Adam Butler, an ex-Carlton top up player and Fremantle squad member, Collingwood rookie Zane Leonard, who battled a hamstring strain for most of the season, Kane McKenzie, Jeremy Dukes and Heath Lawry, who ploughed through sticky centre area and water-logged surrounds.
