TISM for me.

They aren't going to get a guernsey for Eurovision sadly as the softc**k Aussie recording industry would like someone vanilla like Guy Sebastian.

There are plenty of AFL references in their music as well. They could even hire the man mentioned in the following song to play triangle on 'I rooted a girl who rooted a guy who rooted a girl who rooted a guy who rooted a girl who rooted Shane Crawford'.

Machine Gun Fellatio

Saw them live many moons ago. The support were a band from Adelaide called "Pornland", which was everything the name suggests.

My mate's and I have this discussion every year. Consensus usually is for an Aussie band, but it has to be someone who will get people a little excited and has a good stack of hits, not just the flavour of the week (remember the Temper Trap, bloke just stood there, had the whole runway and boringly didn't move).

My vote who ticks all the boxes is The Living End. Almost everyone knows them, they have lots of hits and they have energy and put on a show. Dunno how many other Aussie bands (apart from Acca Dacca) would tick all the boxes

I'm not sure the Living End have remained as popular as you would want now a fair way from their prime. But I think you're right in terms of the idea and also right on how difficult it is to find suitable entertainment for a widespread audience who have the capabilities to capture an entire stadium.

It was at night, but KISS put on a decent show if this youtube video is anything to go by

Bring back the hairy bastard on horseback who sang (and I use that term loosely) Waltzing Matilda at the 1988 GF. Worst half time entertainment ever. And yes, worse than you Angry Anderson

The public hanging of Damian Barrett would be the best half-time entertainment.

People would die in the crush to be the one wearing the black hood.

I think I have already two songs that they could include in their Grand Final set list.

"I might barrack for Port Power..."

But never for the Crows.

One live action reenactment of that film clip=ratings!

you gone off the wet t-shirt competition idea, da?

I thought it's a given that that would be part of their act.

I actually thought it was going to be a lot worse than what it actually turned out

Gene has lost a bit of his range but they can still do it

Unlike Meathead who had totally lost any idea at all!!

Fear not SWYL.

KISS may be old but they are entertainers and will rock the 'G' come GF day.

They seem loud enough screaming at me during breaks.

If they insist on having musical acts why not focus on contemporary Aussie bands - I'm not a fan of Jet but I much preferred them a couple of years back than any of these overseas pensioners they drag in.

So we wouldn't need to wait for the wardrobe malfunction?

I think Kolt looks like he’s im

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    MATCH SIM: Friday 7th February 2025

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
