19 years it's taken for the club to qualify for a premiership decider, so get pumped!

This is history, pride and glory on the line. So much to like in this side, whether it's the enthusiasm, elite performances from Erin, Noffy, Tex and Chelsea or Bec Goddard's enormous leadership.

There's only ever one inaugural premier so it'd be awesome if the girls can bring it home.

The team has the firepower to win it, just need to find a way to break Brisbane's defence. Equally we leaked quite a few easy goals yesterday so can't afford this after hitting the scoreboard ourselves.

Huge weekend next week with the blokes taking on the flag favourites a day later. Hopefully the towns media hype this up and give it the coverage it deserves.

I think a full metricon will make for a better atmosphere than a half full gabba, the AFL just needs to get their ass into gear and start marketing it so QLDers actually know it is happening.

They won't get a full metricon I wouldn't think. Depends if they are offering free transportation from Brisbane - which I doubt, as the game is free and not ticketed.
 
2pm Brisbane time is 2:30 Adelaide time and 3pm Syd/Melb/Hobart.
Great. So we have a weird start time just so your curtains won't fade...
 
Bit of backlash that they are doing it as a curtain raiser to the mens game AND that it's not in Brisbane.
Curtain raiser is bullshit.

How about night game, and move the men to another day?

It's not a curtain raiser if it is two separate games, as long as you don't need a QClash ticket to see the GF it's not a curtain raiser.

Will not be a doubleheader ground will be cleared for the men's game. Unless they are planning on have people waiting around for 3 hours after the Women's Grand Final. outside the ground.
ie game starts at 2pm, over with presentations by 4pm latest. Men game starts at 7pm.
They will clear the Ground before the men play.

However s**t call.

If Mens Grand Finals are always played at the MCG ....why couldn't they have played the game at Princess Park in Melbourne, where there would have been a crowd and atmosphere ......there'll be no atmosphere at Metricon, poor decision AFL
