The AFL wishes to advise it has invited the two former greats of the Sydney Swans and Hawthorn respectively, to be the presenter of the 2014 Toyota AFL Premiership Cup to the winning club.

Since 2004, the AFL has asked a former great of the winning team to be on hand to present the premiership cup, and is delighted that Michael O’Loughlin and Jason Dunstall have accepted the AFL’s offer for this week’s Grand Final.
