No. Leave the game alone.

Every freaking year the norbits that run the show want to tweak it, and they always get it wrong. Always.

Leave it alone. It ain't broke, don't try and fix it.

Accountants... it’s the money men who tweak it. How do we squeeze every brass razoo out of everything we touch.

    It doesn’t work for the NRL, it won’t work for us. If we win a grand final, I’d be up all night partying. If it was on at night, I wouldn’t go to bed until late afternoon the next day.

    Love how after consulting fans, we get told due to their opinions the GF won’t change in 2017, then in 2018 without any consultation we get told fans opinions are changing.

     

    Nice on Dill.

    The year of the fan was last year, this year they don't give a stuff. I'm sure the price of pies and chips will return to normal as well :laugh:

    Why do you say that? I'm not a follower of the NRL, but I thought the NRL twilight GF was considered a success...and one of the prime arguments used by those proposing a twilight AFL GF.

    I find it somewhat ironic and also sad that the least popular timeslot for AFL throughout the year is being proposed for its most important game.

    They've agreed to it it will be announced just prior to round 1 or on the Friday following the Blues/Tigers so it will get lost in the news cycle

    Well, Dr Gonzo, you said this almost 12 months ago. Prescient.

    Like the idea of a late arvo kick off.  Im getting too old to start drinking at 11am.

    A  BBQ and crack the first can at 2pm works for me.  or if im out, the game finishes at 7pm so prefect for kicking on

    Im with you DUbDee. I am a traditionalist but that is the best reason I’ve heard so far to justify a twilight GF.

    This reminds me of a story some one told a few years back. The guy and a few of his mates were going to GF so they thought they would start the day, with a few beers before the they got to the match. The only problem was the cops nabbed them at the gate and they spent the whole GF in the M.C.G cells for the whole match, they let them out at the end of the match.

    New Zealand complains that it’s on too late. Also, it’s hard to let the kids stay up that late. They reverted back in 2008, but became night again for some reason in 2015.

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
