Good idea to change the starting time for the only event in afl history that has suspended a game at the mcg.

So many places where 30k people are sitting out in the rain during a storm…

Pretty poor take. a) i can’t remember ever going goalless against port before halftime and b) we’ve had some absolute thrashings over the past 20 years (including the clarko era).. hard to say a 55 point loss to last years semi finalist is the worst of them.

This should happen once every 1000 matches (basically once every 7-8 years) so the afl definitely don’t report these crowds correctly.

Yep - that was just my point of comparison when comparing the price of MCG schooners (full-strength) to other bars/pubs in the area. Charging the same for mid-strength though is just laughable.

Except some CBD bars are $15-17 for a pint and the $12 schooners, you can drink in glass at select bars…

For full strength, the prices aren’t that out of step with a lot of city pubs charging around $12 a schooner. For midstrength great northern, being expected to pay the same amount is a farce. Outside of the CBD/Richmond, there’s plenty of places selling schooners for $7-10 and occasionally as...

They wouldn’t even think about playing those games in the MCC. If they want to have an afl members exclusive bar selling mid strength, then at least discount the beer prices to afl members. No idea why the price of mid strength beer is the same as full (if it was available) in public areas, let...

Noticed on boxing day - absolutely disgraceful really. What’s the point in even having a level 2 exclusive bar if they just serve what’s available in every other bar?

Thanks again mate.

I’m probably pushing my luck but any idea of the crowds? I think they had 24k across all 3 days?

Thanks mate, really appreciate this! Goalkickers as well 😍

If anybody has the 1996 book ‘One in a Hundred’, are they able to please post text or a screenshot of the page showing the full scores of the lightning premiership? I’ve tried to find the half time scores everywhere online but can only find the full time scores, and I know this book had them!!

You also get the issue of double counting people who enter twice because the pass out system is made redundant.

They didn’t have an option. The other match is in Auckland which if played into the East Coast in prime time, would have to start at 10pm NZ time. The NRL weren’t going to forego FNF for the sake of the Melbourne market…
