Birds were on song both pre match and after.
Hunters were very good on the big stage but faltered in the post game performance by playing an absolute classic not so familiar with the masses. I loved it though!!
I wish the AFL would spend some of our money on hiring better entertainment, the bands yesterday were okay but something involving a flaming dwarf would have been better.
Living o/s,i get to find out each year that Mike Brady & Craig Willis are still alive.
Thats entertaining!
Didn’t really watch the pre-game entertainment. Never have. The only ones I remember are the ones that have gone wrong (Meatloaf and the fairy that brought the Cup into the ground in the Geel v Port final).
Halftime entertainment was ■■■■.
They ‘supposedly’ learnt from the NFL Halftime Show by putting a band on a small stage in the middle of the ground with no one around them to sing two songs.
They need to follow the NFL and allow fans onto the ground at halftime in front of the band. Also, Hunters were okay, but they aren’t really performers as such.
They need to get singers and bands who are iconic and who aren’t ‘overt he hill’. Unfortunately that means there aren’t many Aussie bands (at least from the last 15 years).
Ditch the non footy stuff. Bring back the ressies grand final. De-circus the event.
Fark birds of Tokyo
When I’m at a music festival, I don’t wanna see a band stop half way through the set, and some footy players from the 80’s come out and do some handball drills.
And vice versa
Footy and live music don’t mix.
Fark birds of Tokyo
They are pretty ■■■■■■ average.

Yeah, they have one good song and it's not even their chart hits. Ordinary band.
Next time it'd be better with Powderfinger, Pearl Jam or Queens of the Stone Age.
I’ll cop the ■■■■■■ up and coming bands, the over hyped old school rockers, the cross promotion of “talent” shows, the kids waving flags, all the hoopla to justify an overpriced ticket and the overpriced food.
But what I cannot accept is having a countdown clock with heart beat and clips of players for the last 30 seconds before the ball is bounced. That moment in time is now ruined. That 30 seconds before a big game, any game, whether its at the G, or some paddock in the CDFL, as a player and even more so as fan, is where the silence is what brings the hairs up on your neck, the pupils dilate and the heart skips a beat.
But no. We need fan engagement and blaring music right up to the last poofteenth of a second so there’s nothing left that is sacred in the game.
I’ve pretty much conceded that I will rather spend my time and money doing other things on my weekends now. Too bad, actually used to enjoy the footy.

That ■■■■■■ me off big time. I was trying to scan the field and look for the match ups.
would of been nice to watch the GF in HIGH DEFINITION
You don't see the maggot backward sprint anymore.
Last analog TV (Melbourne) to be switched off in a couple of months. That has been one of the excuses given in the past (not enough bandwidth) so we can but hope they get off their arses then.would of been nice to watch the GF in HIGH DEFINITION
All this non Footy crap at the GF is simply for the theatre goers and corporates. The best entertainment would be the TAC cup GF prior to the main game.
Nah. Gimme TD and Bradley Plain kicking bags instead.All this non Footy crap at the GF is simply for the theatre goers and corporates. The best entertainment would be the TAC cup GF prior to the main game.

They can't put the game on their HD channel because of anti-siphoning laws.

Carcass are touring again. Rendition of, No Love Lost would go down well for me.
