Hope you've got some of that fancy Liqueur  on hand picket .

No doubt you'll be quaffing at a furious rate!

[Morgs_10 222]

Anyone know who the commentary team is?

The call makes such a huge difference to the broadcast, particularly on a year like this with so many committed members unable to attend the game

Hopefully in 20 years we'll still get goose bumps from our "Leo Barry, you star!" moment

Tell them you'll buy the red and blue ones off them at a discounted rate once they lose.

Oh or just shoot all the white ones.

I’m certain that Rob Sitch is a Demons supporter, but I’m sure I just saw him finish his American News segment on the ABC News channel, shouting “Go Dogs!!”… what’s with that??

Definitely a Melbourne supporter. Last saw him in the Qantas Lounge in 2018 post preliminary final in Perth.

He was also donned in his MFC scarf on Fox the other day with Mike Sheehan.

Dear AFL

Not a fan of a twilight/night grand final. Please just haver it oat the day. I don't care about the lights at night. 

I've got double nerves today because I will be watching the storm at 4 to hopefully see them get into another grand final. At least that will break up the arvo and waiting until 7:15. 

I just keep thinking how this is it and think can that really happen. We need to take our chance and we need to grab it because it may not come around again for awhile. I keep picturing Maxy holding up the cup my god if we win I think I will be in shock.

can you tell me more Wiz? 

I read that it’s been a last minute deal. Jump onto your AFL Live app and there is a new banner for the live stream. I’ve included a few screen shots below!

Hopefully this works for you!

The light show at the ground will be pretty special tonight at Optus as a new state of the art stadium. Agree in general though. 

As a WA footy fan I love getting to the pub for lunch on grand final for a 12.30 bounce.

Good luck to you shout your lungs out.

[Cassiew 1,878]

The fact that we haven’t seen each other for months, it’s been so emotional. As we hugged, we had tears in our eyes. I doubt it’ll be our last today

Special shout out to all people who couldn’t make it to their loved ones today

[At the break of Gawn 4,348]

Actually had a decent nights sleep, but I’m filled with anxiety and excitement now.

The more I think about it, the more I worry this is really a 50-50 game. I am desperate for us to avoid being the St.Kilda of 09/10.

However, after watching Adem Yze on Fox before it sounds like the boys are nice and relaxed. We’ve played this time slot before, we’ve played a prelim on this ground, we’ve had an extra weeks break.

I haven’t allowed myself to think about after the siren, all my thoughts are on the game and winning that, but geez, imagining Max holding that cup up is just so tantalising!

Today Uncle at a reasonable drinking time my quaffers of choice will be 

Tooheys extra dry long necks

Jack Daniels Whisky sours

Heartland 2014 Shiraz

The Footbolt 2013 McLaren Vale Shiraz and finally 

Disaronno Liquer

must have pre game nap

[leave it to deever 17,369]

You have to accept that the dogs finishing outside the top four......travelling to Tassie......then Brisbane and then Adelaide and winning is a pretty good effort. But having them then travel to Perth and winning number four would be highly unlikely. 

I don't think I could handle a close game. All purists of the game would argue of course that's the basis of a good gf to watch. Not for Mfc supporters. Maybe a close one in 2024.

[dees189227 11,934]

Also congratulations on Jack Viney playing his 150th game today. Lets hope it's a memorable one.

Thanks sue. But I don't trust that advice at all. Everything I've read is about the restrictions. Surely there would be other people in my boat without a TV and laptop alone, and they would cater some information in that direction? 

If you don't have a latop, you could use a browser on your phone with 7plus if desperate.  I see the AFL app has annoucned it is showing the GF. - presumabl they are making it free. and not just for subscribers.
