Why does it have to be a band? Why not that guy that used to have the talking Teddy bear on his lap on 'hey hey it's Saturday', man that bear was funny.

 

I reckon the AFL should have got Bob Dylan to do it. He refuses to play anything anyone wants to hear - so even his fans are unhappy.

If you’re going to disappoint people you may as well go all in - and disappoint everyone.

 

I've got an idea. Just play the game of football. Lionel Ritchie, Robbie Williams & Kiss were all fine, but I wouldn't have missed them one bit. I just want to watch the game that decides the premiers. Who cares a tinkers cuss if there is no vacuous, ponced-up pop sensation with limited talent but over hyped self exposure galumphing across a sporting arena? 


Maybe John Farnam will come out of retirement for the 17 th time.

I hope not.

It’s funny, over on Reddit AFL there’s been a minor movement over the past few years to get the Gizz to play a GF. Not that the AFL would ever tweak that they’re one of the biggest Australian bands currently touring the world, but they’ve said they’d never do it anyway. Nothing against the game (one of their first singles was called β€œFooty”) but they’re simply not interested in the trappings of mainstream recognition. Another wise move from them. 

"I'd never join a club that wanted me as a member" wise move 😜

Could be worse, we could have what the opening ceremony in Paris just dished up.

 

I'm 53 and I dig Katy Perry. You can get a good hour or so out of her best songs and they are all superb. Great for long drives. 

Interesting that the two mega acts for the Olympics opening ceremony were not French.

Lady Gaga and Celine Dion

That's what I call cringeworthy

  • REPORT: Essendon

    What were they thinking? I mean by β€œthey” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
