Oh No - the Grand Final 'entertainment'.

[Guest]

Well here we go again, more cringing and embarrassment to sit through before we get to the real entertainment.

Reading the Herald Sun most of the entertainment is pretty dull but you would reckon that last year after putting us through the 'the sheedy' and 'the dipper' they would kill off that crap but noooooo. It's back this year and they've expanded it to include 'the kouta' and 'the lloydy' I just can't believe anyone thinks this is anything but embarrassing.

I agree, it is embarassing, but I can't wait to laugh when I see Wayne Jackson and Co. getting into the spirit!

BFN Doug.

God what crap

I suppose we will also have the usual 1000's of school kids running around with pieces of cloth, a B-Grade pops star sings Waltzing Matilda and on and on it goes.

weren't we going to have the sprint back again this year ? evidently not.

 

[Guest]

You supposed right BA.

BSA, they will have the sprint on The Game on Friday night. So what time will they show The Game in Sydney this week?

Killing Hiedi, would have been good.

Whats this about "The Lloydy and Kouta" you should have seen all the sheep last year... It was so laughable...

 

[Bloodstained Angel]

ha ha ha

TotalFooty2000 you jest surely ?

The Game is usually on in Sydney at around 12.30 am.

I usually tape it and watch on Friday night but if its on Friday then I will watch it on Saturday before the big one.

Sure as hell beats the pre-game 'entertainment' thats for sure...

Russell Morris, Rick Price & Mike Brady - hell does it get any worse?

See that Bachelor Girl are there also - wasn't Vanessa Amorosi available this time around?

Hope the Essendon fans do what they said last year in executing the 'fatwa' out against Mike Brady for his awful awful butchery of the EFC club song. Now that would be entertainment - Brady being torn limb to limb by 30,000 Bomber fans.

Vanessa Amafatty over Bachelor Girl? You have got to be kidding. She is manufactured and sings others songs, while the former act sing mostly their own written material.

But please can we burn those scarves in a public display?

Grand Final entertainment, oh how it has decreased in the past few years.

They scrapped the balloons when the teams ran out onto the ground, because it was 'nasty' to the environment - although I agree it could be harmful, it looks so cool with all the balloons rising!

Anyway, Bachelor Girl on the Footy Show awards night was...sad - Vanessa is an Olympic singer and she's had 2 high profile songs, which says that the AFL cant even get the best Australian musical talent to offer.

 

[Max Power]

I meant in the context that Vanessa Amorosi seems to be the 'in thing' for events like these recently.

Oh and you can add Julie Anthony and some unknown boy-band to the GF crap-o-rama list too.

 

[the true magpie greg]

Being the "Olympic Singer" only equates you to Dianna Ross or Boys to Men. It is no badge of courage.

Talent is better if isnt all sizzle and no sausage. For BG it is real talent. FOR Amafatty the only sausage is porky sausage. You may as well want the Spice Girls UGH!!!!!

 

[Drakey]

What ever it is it will be STUPID.

You guys should have been at the 1987 SANFL grand final. Ricky May sang the National Anthem & FORGOT THE WORDS. That is the worse thing I've seen as far as pre GF "entertainment" goes.

 

[Danni]

Looks like most of the other Aussie Entertainers must be pre-booked or in rehearsal or something for the Olympics! Well, hey - it could have been worse - they could have gone the Union way and had Bardot singing the National Anthem!

 

[L'il Pete]

Why don't they fly in Rich from Survivor - it would be more entertaining listening to him tell the world how he lost 100pnds than most of the crap they have lined up!

 

[jod23]

I say keep with the times, get Silverchair Jebediah or 28 Days to come on and play the national anthem punk style!!! hahaha
