Lame as usual. Recycling acts that are well past their used by. Horrendous. 

Hey hey back up a bit, Jimmy is a national treasure. Ain't no second prize a certainty to feature. 

Black eyed peas though? Very lame. I didn't think they existed anymore.  

If they wanted a hip hop act, they have plenty of commercially viable Australian artists to choose from. 

The Sunnyboys are still touring, wish we could get a proper Aussie band like that :(

    I vote get rid of all this peripheral noise and so-called entertainment at all football matches. Quarter time and three quarter time should be an opportunity for the coaches to speak to the players. There’s so much noise from idiots I doubt they can hear. Half time entertainment is wasted on most fans who want to have a drink or speak with a mate or mates.

    Barnes is a stinker. Yell and has a voice that went out long ago. Bogan music.

    Bogan music? Lol sorry your highness 

    Who are the regular classical artists you normally listen to at a sensible volume in the Range Rover on your way to high tea?

    Must admit the whole idea of arena entertainment in a sporting context (as distinct from the arena being set up for the entertainment) seems to me to be a failure.

    Given that it's designed for television... why bother

    I think you just answered your own question there - TV ratings.

    What? You don’t want musical acts chosen by people that can barely run the sport they manage?

    I’m with ET. It’s embarrassing every year. In fact the only reason a take a quick glance at the entertainment is to see if they topped the last embarrassment.

    Having said that, I’d love to hear Fergie butcher our anthem.

    To be fair to the Black Eyed Peas, they just released some new music, so they are not completely irrelevant.

    Ed Sheeran was still the best get of all time by the AFL. His post show gig was really good.

    Jimmy Barnes is a great guy, who has cheated death more than once. But his voice has gone. Completely shot. 

    I cringe when i hear him “Belt out” a tune now  

    the 1977 Cold Chisel debut album is still one of my all time favourites

    But Barnes should now retire with grace

    Could still pay her $20 bucks if Robbo isn’t available.

    yeah ... I know that but it was on a hovercraft chasis so they could do simulated wheelies in the middle of the ground

    Thats a pretty bad line up.

    Big pass from me.

    Personally would prefer the AFL to be trend setters and let the game do the entertaining.

    Now there's a novel idea...

    Who thought that a washed up bogan who’s looking more and more like an old lesbian every time I see him, and some yank band that had a top 100 hit some time in the last century was a good idea? 

    I just checked and Les Savy Fav are free grand final weekend.

    Who gives a rats ring about the entertainment. The Wiggles could be screaming Sweet Child of Mine whilst nude and I wouldn't even give it a  glance. It's only about the footy.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.
