What do you love most about Grand Final day?

[Stormfan22]

All runs come to an end.

Correct but the Comp these days is fairly even so I think we will see teams like the cowboys come from 8 and be in the big dance more regularly. All u need to do is be up there.

Darren lockyers commentary

Sucks.

There is a an entire thread about it.

$8.20 for Hahn Superdry 3.5 or XXXX gold.

I would rather not drink than drink that shite at that price
If they offered to pay me $8.20 per schooner, I would still be on the fence

I went to the College Football game at Homebush and refused to drink anything until the 3rd quarter, by which time they had run out thankfully.

This GF day was the most low key day I can remember

I was home looking after the kids as the wife was away
All my mates had other plans or were away

I had two beers and then a combination of jet lag and the cold I've been suffering made me fall asleep on the couch and I missed the Storms second try. I didn't drink any more. I just watched the game and then went to bed

What did I enjoy most? Not being hung over the next day.

The iron jack was alright but at $8.20 for a plastic thimble full I limited myself to two. There was plenty of decent food stalls outside the ground which was good and I enjoyed chilling in the sun in the park area with the band. Transport was great, very well run, helpful staff and trains not packed at the time we were on them. I cant fault the presentation of the game at all and think the nrl did an outstanding job.

The only let down for me was that walking around Sydney and main areas there was not a single indication a GF was taking place that weekend. It's a massive missed opportunity to promote the game generally and to show Sydney actually cares that it gets to host it. Should be something the city is proud of not something hidden away.

Sydney might have given more of a shite if a Sydney team had been playing, but then that usually falls to the local area council to get excited. The City of Sydney Council wouldn't give a flying stuff - unless possibly if Souths are there - because as everyone knows the City of Sydney is represented by errrrrr South errrr well, no erm.

Anyway, they weren't going to spend City of Sydney money promoting a game between North Queensland and Melbourne in Homebush.

It's how Sydney works. You're right - it's f**king rubbish

 

[Perth Red]

The other plus was finding Harts pub, some stonking beers on tap in there!

 

[titoelcolombiano]

I enjoy the chance our game gets to be in the national spotlight (ok Adelaide and Perth ratings are low but Melbourne is really starting to tune in, in bigger numbers, even when the Storm aren't playing)

I'm well aware of that silly

Calling me silly, how cute.

There's a gpod lad. Now of to bed it's getting late.

No doubt we will hear how they are the former reigning premiers lol. Let's hope its another 45 years before we have to go through that again!

Don't mind the Sharks.They are a great club with great dupporters.I'm sure they feel a bit cringy when the likes of the idiots on NRL 360 at times lay it on thick with a trowel.

 

[Perth Red]

Great initiative for fans attending the RLWC final weekend in Brisbane. Take note nrl/Sydney this is how you promote major RL events in the hosting city!!

[STORM.99/07]

Would that mean we would still be premiers all next year too?

The peptide flakes have had their year.

 

[STORM.99/07]

It would be a test you couldn't endure

maybe you could have a class in how to be a loser.you are well practiced in being one

Said the cheat?

 

[STORM.99/07]

Cheat??????

 

[sensesmaybenumbed]

Cheat??????

It seems you and I are playing a game making assumptions about a person's character on the internet based on the primary characteristic of their Footy team.

So yeah, cheat.
