Don't really care but I'm hoping Brisbane wins

[Singa 188]

Should be an option for nil all draw or COVID cancellation (kidding --- sort of). 

Pains me to say but I think the Cats will roll the Tigers. I can't pin my finger on it but the Tiges haven't shown the same hunger this year. Cats just keep keeping on. I'll turn the telly off at the siren as I refuse to watch Scott's smug face hold up the cup. 

First Goal? Mitch Duncan for some value for money at $34. 

Norm Smith? If the little Master even has a sniff of a decent game and the cats win he is a shoe in. Paying $21 too. Lock it in Eddie.

I was pinning all my hopes on them as they were the least offensive options of the Prelims.

You get the feeling the Cats have their name on it this year.  easily accounting for teams recently and in great form.

its one last push from the old brigade selwood, Hawk, Taylor, Danger etc.     hopefully they fall off a cliff sometime soon

couldn't give a rats though. at least its a night game so I'll be so drunk I either won't watch the game or won't remember it

Don't be surprised if a few cats suspended after the game- Selwood being one of them!

Hopefully the rain is insane and they lose the ball.

the sprint race might be the highlight of the day

as long as not won by cats or tigers

That being the case dc it suggests the rest of the day will be crap.

I usually look forward to the Grand Final but this year it is not there. I feel flat about it. The whole year has been a [censored] up.

Must say I'm quite hoping for lightning and the game is postponed.

Very 2020

Leigh Matthews (3AW, Chairperson), Lauren Arnell (ABC), Malcolm Blight (SEN SA), Damian Barrett (AFL.com.au) and Peter Ryan (The Age) will be the five people to decide the best player in the Toyota AFL Grand Final.

Why is this at night? Covid isnt around at 7.30?

I have a strong feeling this is the precursor for all gfs .

Goodbye old timeslot. Wait and see.

Night Gf more$$$$$

Tx Gil.

8 finals appearances and first GF for danger. Terrible record. 

Part of me wants the Cats to lose as if they win, it would vindicate all the glory hunters that have joined them over the years. When I say part of me, I mean 99.9%

[DubDee 20,751]

So it’s GF Day, guess I’m gonna crack my first can around 11am like usual. Then just 8 hours til the bounce. 

if someone could let me know who wins that would be great

Much more than a part, I would love nothing more than for them to lose by 100+ points and be utterly humiliated.

Richmond by 19 points 

Dylan grimes norm smith 

tom Hawkins first goal 

[Hogan2014 390]

Will be the start of my 6th decade of no flags & watching other supporters celebrate.. hve only experienced gf twice which ended poorly by 1/2 time.......

[dazzledavey36 48,865]

Been use to this for 20 years.

[buck_nekkid 5,496]

I really want to see both of these teams plummet to the depths for a decade or so.  Would have preferred a port/Bris GF rather than these two teams. Whatever happens, the outcome will be insufferable.

Just can't wait until it's over with.

Highlight of the footy calendar. 

No. It’s definitely not.  It’s another sad day and year that we count to say it’s 56 years since we won a flag. Now the longest drought of the AFL clubs.  We see others celebrate and this year, have two clubs with multiple recent premierships. It sucks !!!!! 

Surely the Demons (and Saints) supporters  deserve the chance to experience Premiership glory.  
 

One thing to always take from the grand final is the players that succeed in grand finals.  They are not soft, light footballers.  It’s the blokes who love the game. They lift.
 

There’s no rebuild garbage left.  It’s now. It’s 2021. It’s no excuses. It’s running through brick walls.  Bring 100% intensity or get out.
