Scheduling clash to cost Storm crowd

[VictoryFC]

Or maybe if the AFL GF is two out-of-city teams, then Melbourne won't care as much and the Storm can generate as big a crowd as they did down there last year.

C'mon Swans! And Adelaide :sarcasm:

You're having a laugh surely? 2004 non-Victorian, 2005 non-Victorian, 2006 non-Victorian grand final. Interest really went down :roll:. And without coming off as AFL-biased, there are arguably more Swans fans (old South Melbourne) down here in Melbourne than there are Storm fans.

Should definitely be Fri/Sat night. It's unfair on the winner of the Sunday game as then they don't have the 7 days off before the Grand Final.

It was changed when the Grand Final was taken off nights as a compromise gesture.

lol
Sat night sunday day is fine. By the way razor, sunday to sunday IS 7 days.

I can't believe we've abandoned Sun afternoon finals games again, the sh*t we as a game do to appease Ch9 is ridiculous.

Storm won't miss out on any money cause News will just pump a few more million in to compensate

Don't the NRL get all the money from the finals anway?

Right here is a good opportunity to make 9 eat it, and eat it raw. How many times has 9 honoured their contract to broadcast live matches in Melbourne before 12 midnight?

F*** 'em. F*** 'em hard. Put the final on Sunday arvo, and tell 9 that "we couldn't fit it into our schedule before then". The sodomyball worshipping homos deserve it.

Victory's booked out the TD for Sunday

don't care when or where. so long as 9 don't like it.

Princes Park? :sarcasm:

Or maybe Melbournes next home ground: Bluetongue at Gosford [/Fitzgerald]

 

[Collingwood Storm]

If this situation does occur, the the NRL should be ashamed being placed behind the VFL (the VIC equivalent of the Jim Beam Cup) in the pecking order for Telstra Dome.
