Was I the only one surprised by this? I watched the last few minutes of the 1st half and all the 2nd. Port looked very disorganized. But, I'm glad the underdogs will be in the GF.

I am hoping for a tight Grand Final, and not a one-sided game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare MicCanberra Posted September 12, 2021 #537 Share Posted September 12, 2021 A competitive final would be good after those two games being so one sided. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
possum52 Posted September 24, 2021 #538 Share Posted September 24, 2021 (edited) My Demon supporting family members are very excited about the GF tomorrow evening. Our frint fence has even been graffitied (by our son). Daughter sent some red and blue balloons for DH and to granddaughters. God Dees!

Rare MicCanberra Posted September 24, 2021 #539 Share Posted September 24, 2021 Some synchronicity if they win, as they last won in 1964, the same year as the Tokyo Olympics. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By The Bay Posted September 24, 2021 #541 Share Posted September 24, 2021 There could be more synchronicity if the AFL and NRL Melbourne teams both win. They are both favourites. What are the bookies odd's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MicCanberra Posted September 24, 2021 #542 Share Posted September 24, 2021 But Melbourne wasn't in the NRL in 1964. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSWP Posted September 24, 2021 #543 Share Posted September 24, 2021 (edited) Yawn, when does the cricket season start? AFL is like a religion down south. I will have to cheer for Melbourne as the Swans are not in it. Excuse my ignorance but where are the Western Bulldogs from? Only Bulldogs Football team I know are Canterbury Bankstown, lol.

NoWhiners Posted September 25, 2021 Author #547 Share Posted September 25, 2021 The GF has been shown here the past few years. I went looking for it so I could set the TV to autotune and I couldn't find it. I was having a tough time believing it wouldn't be on when I realized I was searching on the wrong day. Duh. Found it when I went to the correct day, all set up. Now, I'll have to set an alarm so I can get up to watch. Hope it's a ripper game!! Rooting for the Dees, they deserve a win. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, we don't have a TV connected DVR. I know, we are very old school! It will be fine, I usually wake up around 3:30 anyway, I'll just try and stay awake for a couple of hours, then go back to sleep. Hope it's a good game, otherwise, I might fall asleep! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 1996 they changed their name to Western Bulldogs. Melbourne's mascot is a demon and they get called the Dees by their fans. Go Dees!
