I am finding this granny to be one of the hardest to pick a winner.

Yep & for the first time in years I'm not bothered who wins.

But it's going to be close I hope. 

As I've stated before, whichever coach loses I'll feel for. For fagan to lose 2 in a row will be so shattering for him. 

 

How goods the weather though? 

And thank goodness we'll have a new premiership winner tomorrow so I know longer have to hear Collingwood are reigning premiers

Not surprised at this. I understand he lives in Byron Bay. Long commute to work

Wowsers. I’m currently in Kirra/Coolangatta and am amazed at the traffic and amount of time it takes to go from one end of the Gold Coast to the other, let alone from Byron to Brissie. Not sure of his family / partner situation but if you’re earning good coin and will do for only a few more years, suck it up and live closer by.

 

Want the Swannies to win, but am afraid the Lions will get up by a 4 goals-ish :-/


Happy grand final day!

Greatest day ever on the sporting calendar. 

Brisbane by 3 and Hugh McLugguge for the Normie.

Got in the queue at 6;40am,  Could have gotten here at 8:24 and got the seat next to me 😂

Grand final day just love it. Getting to the G it's my favourite day along with the boxing day test.

Weekend already off to a great start with the storm getting through to the NRL gf last night.

Hoping for a cracker of a game today

I always envy the supporters of the two grand final teams that get to experience the whole lot. As I get older the more I crave to experience this with my fellow demon family. Hopefully those who haven’t experienced any of it get to soon! I was only about 6 in 2000 so I don’t really remember too much(thank god)

 

Anyway, the weather is a beauty! Enjoy your day everyone!

Where is your seat (approx)? I was successful in the ballot, seat is Level 4 on the wing ... row W. There will be seats available to MCC restricted members. Update:  MCC FB page .... seats went onsale at 9.40 am!!

I think I'll stay in the bar (Percy Beames) while some singer is 'performing' (aka miming). FWIW there's a rumour that an Aussie will join that singer for a song ... tip is that it's tiny Tina Arena.

Grand Final day brings a special feeling with it. Better than Xmas say, Boxing Day, Cup day by a stretch.

Love seeing people around town in their colours, every big footy fan deserves a chance to experience this.

I've never been to one, was hoping to save it for when we made one again but am tempted to check the restricted members offering. 

Should be a hell of a game watch, I won't be barracking for anyone just enjoying it. If I absolutely have to tip then om saying Swans by 7 and Papley Norm.

Edited by layzie

Margin ticket says 27 so wanting that. Prefer Swans as Lions fans at the Gabba are mostly wankers. John Denver FFS.

Sydney by 28

McCluggage first goal (paying $41)

Some random no name like Melican to win the Norm Smith.

Daniher to kick the last goal of the game after going 0.4.


In the city now, just seeing everyone in there supporter gear makes me jealous, but then I think if it's Melbourne I'd be a nervous wreck.

Just read an article in JJ and how he grew up barracking for the swans & lived near the coach. Good on him if he could fulfil his dream today. At least he'll start on the ground

Soz, went to the gym, thought I’d be productive

second row level 3 in front of FGS

Expect a cracking game until the 3rd qtr then Swans to get on a run and end up winning by 50+

Phil Davis convinced me of this when talking about GWS in 2019 and how when the game gets a little bit away the winning side seem to go hell for leather with everyone trying to win a Norm Smith.

And the GWS run to the GF was eerily similar to Brisbanes…

Added last line

 

I wonder what the level of interest is in this game interstate. I suspect if you dig a little that it's not great.

Similarly the level of interest in Melbourne in the Storm is abysmal.

The GF really needs to go on the road occasionally. (One in every three years would be fine)

  • CASEY: Coburg

    The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

  • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

    After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
