Premiers - why move on so fast?

[QuietB]

This used to piss me off when the Hawks were winning it and I assume it pissing Richmond supporters off today.

Why do we move on so fast?

I am listening to a sports report and all they are talking about is Gold Coast draft concessions.

Can’t the Tigers have one week of clear air to celebrate and be the centre of all attention?

Fair point but on the other side of the coin the 10 sides that missed the finals have had 5 weeks of twiddling their thumbs being forgotten about

TO piss off Richmond supporters

 

[NaturalDisaster]

They are professional clubs, they have to move on quickly to prepare for the next season.

 

[gimp!]

Look at the AFL website. At first glance you'd never even know there was a Grand Final.

 

[WillieNillie]

The game was a flat out embarrassment to the sport. I don't think it gets a mention next year too. Will be the most forgotten about flag in years thanks to GWS

Clubs play for premierships, the media plays for clicks.

Trade articles get more clicks than premiership ones.

Cause we live in a 24/7 internet connected news cycle.

The GF was already old news 24 hours ago, and it is now 48 hours ago so pretty much ancient news with NFL and EPL going as well on 17 supporter bases have already moved on and so must the news.

The most prominent image on the front page is Dustin Martin holding the 2019 premiership cup. If that isn't enough then you have serious problems.

Jesus take it easy clown, that was just updated, replacing a trade scenario image. Wasn't even there until I refreshed the page.

Impact bias: You imagine that a big event will have more of an effect for longer.

Some never move on.

Most people move on fairly quickly.

Some move on immediately.

Because .... one aspect of the game not widely discussed is the TV coverage, audience down nationally despite the huge Tiger Army.

Audience probably higher than it might have been without the huge Tiger army.

silly post. blow outs happen in every sport. afl is no different.

 

[V_23]

Honestly? No one besides the premiers' supporters really cares that much. They're, understandably, more interested in how their own team can improve in trade week.

 

[Bomberboyokay]

The AFL is obsessed with keeping itself in the headlines and minimizing the space other sports get.

If v the Swans you'd be right, GFs with the Swans in pull a crowd.

 

[kozi]

What’s there to move on from? According to the majority Richmond premierships don’t count because MCG, crap game and Mabo vibes.

 

[BBC1967]

uhh

Counts out Pies.

 

[Plugger35]

If the GF was more memorable with a close finish like the one last year there would be more talk about it but this was like watching a Richmond training run.

People hang s**t on the Media and generally can't stand them yet hang on their every word about their own club, as long as it's good.

But that is only interesting to Richmond supporters, there is media which caters for Richmond fans but the overall AFL media don't get clicks appealing to only one (however large) supporter base. Most Tiger supporters who have leave should still be getting smashed not clicking on junk anyway.
