Agreed 100%. Even if not raining, the dewey nights are not conducive to a great spectacle.

Torrential rain last 30 minutes over the Gabba with more to come.

    Hope the lights fail 5 mins into the 1st quarter.  Can't get em back on. That would suit the season to a tee.

    We must fight to keep the Day Grand Final next year. This day has no atmosphere at all. No build up

    If it rains all day and night in Brisvegas the TV Ratings won’t stack up

     

    I’m not one for tradition for traditions sake but I think the gf should remain a daylight game. Every year I fire up the BBQ and have friends and family over to watch the game. With the public holiday added now its makes for a great family orientated weekend. I think a night time slot would change the whole dynamic for the worse.

    apparently if the lightning / lights going out forces the game to be called off in the first half then they'll have a replay; if it happens after half time the winner will be declared as whoever is in front

    I used to really enjoy Finals regardless of who was playing but my interest in this Grand Final is minimal. I'm more interested in the Rugby League Grand Final. Seriously never in my life would i have ever thought that.

    The Game will still rate in the afternoon

    This concerns me deeply.

    Will the Victorian turf cope with these sub tropical conditions?

    Will sheperds immaculately dyed hair run in the rain during half time entertainment.

    What will happen to Stockdales fro? Will he be able to play the guitar with his teef if his hair has fallen down.?

    I wish the Dees were playing and blowhard were the half time entertainment RIP Rollo.

    I may be jumping the gun, but why can’t we have pre game entertainment this good every year?

    Adelaide would have done a better job with the GF prematch.

    Spent most of my life in Brisbane and would have seen thousands of bands over 30 years or so.

    These artists aren't my cup of tea but they're hooking through them well and haven't at least put on a bunch of old hacks.

    Its alright I reckon.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
