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?

    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.

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
