I think what occured is Demetriou thought he was ordering 120 kg of meatloaf (the dish) , the order got buggered up in the translation and he ended up with Meatloaf (the singer). Couldn't back out of the order and the rest is history.

Sadly, yes!

It would be inconceivable to have quality entertainment at the Granny after such an illustrious history of crap. And whilst digging up Franks lifeless corpse to raise the entertainment standard does sound appealing, i fear there are laws to prohibit such unsavoury activities. May I suggest we stick to the game plan and enshrine into the laws of the game that every Grand Final from here to eternity must include one or two of the following acts, Julie Anthony, The Seekers, Barry Crocker, Angry Anderson, Dennis Walter, Marina Prior and to keep the young ones happy that gorgeous poppet Nicki Webster ( not the penthouse pet variety ) and any of the still alive young talent team. With a lineup so devoid of artistic relevance or contemporary credibility we will ensure that the AFL remains at the forefront of 1970's culture.

Won't have Young Talent Time talent next year, the GF is on 7. They won't want to be promoting another network.

My biggest fear is they have the so-called 'stars' from Dancing With The Stars.....

Meat Loaf obviously has no artistic integrity, if he did he wouldn't allow for his songs to be butchered so badly... let alone do it himself.

Worst music entertainment for a sporting event I've ever seen, even worse than Ashlee Simpson at the Super Bowl.

I heard some of Meat Heads GF work on the Radio this morning. It was worse than a version of Khe sahn at a kareoke bar after the singer has killed 37 Beers!!

Clearly the Shoddiest effort by the AFL so far. Shame Demetrio/Anderson Shame

Just took my first full run through of this performance.

Disgraceful is underwhelming - He was clearly off his head on drugs.

Angry Anderson is finely Free of the title.

Jonothon Brown singing "Sweet Caroline" has got to be seriuosly looked at for the 2012 Grand Final.

Love the way Mr Loaf sent up Andrew Demetriou at the press conference. Forget grand final day that was entertainment enough for me.

I reckon we could get Kevin "Bloody" Wilson for a decent price

Has got some ripper songs and would probably write a new one just for the occasion

Todays Hun says he was paid $600 000.

We could get Frank for a lot less DC.

In fact you and I could split the $10 000 spotters fee

what do you think?

Be like taking candy from a baby old dee

Anyone could do a better job than MeatHead and MeatLoaf

Personally I don't see what a rock band (or similar) adds to the occasion. Would rather watch the TAC final as an entre and minimal "entertainment"

Now there is an idea!

A game before the main game, sounds a bit radical to me.

Probably need to be trialled as it has never been done before.

Perhaps in the pre season.

Hang on it was done for a 100 years i think.

PS I remember well getting to the ground and standing through under 19's, reserves before the main game.

Loved it

Just proves not all changes are for the better.

Now you are talking.....K.B.Wilson...A man with true Talent..Imagine a 100,000 people all singing along to "Sunday Morning Throwing Up" A golden momnt indeed...

I remember Frank "I remember you" Ifield too.

The Beatles and Dylan came along and he was instantly outdated.

How 'bout Burl Ives...? Couldn't be worse than Loaf,M.

Have to admit to having a soft spot for Burl ever since I first heard his version of the Dylan song "I'll be Your Baby Tonight". I know I've said I'd prefer contemporary Australian talent, but if I was to choose one act from any place and any era to play the opening song as a lead in to a GF, it would be Elvis Costello and the Attractions doing "Pump it Up".

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders. Windsor's run won't be lost playing off half back. In 19 games in 2024 he kicked 8 goals as a winger. I see him getting shots at g

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
