Time to stop the GF parade.

[Cleric]

If GWS make the GF it becomes redundant for a GF parade through the streets of Melbourne. One day when two teams from WA or SA or NSW get to the same GF its going to be a joke to have a parade in Melbourne.

Like 2004, 2005 and 2006?

Holiday in Melbourne. Visitors always welcome. Imagine there will be a strong Adelaide representation

Odd thread for an Adelaide supporter. Your team just made the GF and you want to kill off a GF week tradition.

Interstate supporters are allowed to enter Victoria. It's not North Korea.

If we had a Port vs Adelaide GF im pretty certain it would be more appropriate to have it here.
Even if ten thousand supporters from SA went to Melb for the GF it still is a VFL relic.

Nah f*ck em, lets build a wall and turn back the boats next week......

Time to stop the Melbourne Cup Parade too considering most of the horses are from overseas?

All part of the atmosphere of Grand Final week

 

[The King!]

Thought this was some concern over player safety

Nah just some drivvle

 

[Garry Barry]

It's time to move the grand final from Melbourne if no Melbourne teams are playing

Yeah, play it at Spotless. The atmosphere would be electric.

 

[Garry Barry]

Actually, this year Adelaide would have won the right to host it, nucklehead.

Wouldn't lock out any GWS supporters either, perfect!

That's knucklehead. If you're going to insult me then at least spell it correctly.

MCG is the premier stadium in the country and it will stay there for decades because it's contracted. This argument has been had a thousand times and is moot.

I'm sure they'd have a parade in Adelaide as well if that was the case.

 

[Danger Zone]

Meh, we're finally playing in another grand final, who cares where they have the parade?

 

[Snake_Baker]

Victorians get a public holiday.

The parade must stay.

I'm actually all for the game being shared around as long as the stadiums are 80k+ the new Perth stadium could probably put forward a good case in the future

Not really. Take out those MCC bludgers and most capitals have a stadium with the same capacity.

No they don't, you're still 20k short.

 

[00Stinger]

Yeah GWS should have their GF parade in front of 12 people in sydney

Take a poll of your winning team from last night & get back to us.

 

[radiojake]

Perhaps you could organise a few thousand hotel bookings, some airline flights and a few tickets by next weekend. Best of luck.

GF day is really more a Corporate day anyway - have heard supporters of both teams playing in GF that they can't get enough tickets for their supporters which is why the prelims are far better from a supporters point of view. Even though being played at the G I'm sure there will be some disappointed Richmond supporters should they make the GF. Aren't tickets for both opposing teams supposed to be the same allocation for each Club? I know of some that go to a GF every year whether the team they support is playing or not so obviously there are tickets available for all Clubs.
