    Spare me.
    If you can't sell premiership merch properly, is it really a premiership? I guess not.

    The cynic in me says it would be kept hush hush!

    NSW is locked out of QLD so none of our players could go. I wonder who would have been selected to compete?

    It's a really strange build up to the Grand Final for me because I would normally be attending. I've been going since 1996 and it doesn't feel right sitting on the couch.

    Definitely want Geelong to win. I want a good contest with no influence by the umpires!

    The rain band is just about to fully clear from the Gabba. But around 50ml has fallen on the ground today, so even without any more rain, it should be soggy throughout the game. I guess that favours the get it forward any way game style of Richmond.
    There's a band of nasty looking storms to the west, but they should be to far away to further dampen the ground.

    Wow. And just like that it looks as though two players are out.

    Cats for me too.

    Anyone who backed Ablett or Vlastuin for the Norm Smith, just kicked the TV.

    Weeks for Dangerfield or plausible deniability?

    Wow crucial injuries to both teams. Ablett was cursed with all the fairytale stuff. Looks like a bad shoulder injury.

    Yes, now that the game's started, I seem to be going for Geelong. Though not with any great enthusiasm.

    I don't like these teams, but I wouldn't wish a concussion on anyone. We just don't know what long term effects can occur.

    And the Little Master is back (hate the nickname by the way).

    Geelong had 2 chances and missed and now the Tigers have 2 goals.

    I hate watching channel 7 with the ads after every goal!
