Seems to be some resistance to this idea, but mainly from AFL figures and business.
For a start the AFL are thinking of shifting the GF parade to another location, fearing that the city will be a ghost town and the league will lose millions of $$$. How the AFL lose millions I'm not sure.
Business is concerned about the economic impact, and the cost of penalty rates.
And then Craig Kelly pipes up, primarily it appears because it affects his business, who happen to stage the AFL grand final parade.
So what do you think?
