Swans cling on in AFL finals cliffhanger

* Key moment: With 18 seconds left, Collingwood have yet another ball-up in their forward 50m. They scramble the ball forward, but the Swans managed to rush through a behind with only three seconds left.

* The stat: Sydney star Lance Franklin kicked two goals, taking him to equal-third in AFL finals with 74. 

* Injuries: Sydney key position player Sam Reid has an adductor injury, putting him in serious doubt for the grand final. Collingwood ruck-forward Mason Cox was also subbed off with a groin injury.

* What's next? Sydney play Geelong for the first time in a grand final next Saturday at the MCG. Collingwood are left heartbroken after going so close to the grand final after finishing second-bottom last season.
