2011 Grand Final - Central v Eagles @ AAMI (Sun 9/10) 3:20pm

[Brucetiki]

Went down to the Grand Final presentation at Rundle Mall today. Very small turnout (not surprising), fairly low key event compared to past years with no balloons or any real fanfare, pretty much just the presentation of players and umpires and that's about it.

Didn't the Central fans get bored with these in the mid 2000s?
(Serious question, not being a smart arse - there weren't many around in 2007 in the only one I went to)

[Big Phil]

I have an unusual enquiry.
Are there any power-points accessable in the stands, esp. the Northern Grandstand for phone/laptop recharging?

Wouldn't think so mate but ask one of the officials at the ground on the day, they may be able to help you out.

That's correct for me. Went in 2000 and 2001, then the kids conned me in around 06 or 07. Never contemplated going again since.

Its fair enough, we obviously went in 07 because of the novelty but in the unlikely event North made GFs regularly I could become bored with them very quickly.
Its nothing like the old day of the parades.

Just leaving my house now...walking down to have breakfast at Eliz City Centre then a beer or two then hop on the bus...C'MON YOU DOGS!!!

[Big Phil]

The rain has stopped for the time being here at AAMI

[TaurusSirius]

I've travelled 1000 km to see my first ever CDFC Grand Final, desperately hoping not to leave disappointed. At least the latest weather forecast isn't actually too bad, it's looked much worse all week. Radar currently looks all clear, with most rain passing well to the north (http://www.weatherzone.com.au/radar.jsp ... tate&lc=sa). Go U Dogs!

[CedeNullis]

Think you're right TaurusSirius. There is a storm coming.

Storms like Eagles land down on you from the sky

The last word
Leigh Treeby and Craig Parry
If they are eating raw meat for Breakfast then Im expecting fireworks today
Dont be surprised if one or both gets reported today
Im expecting Treeby to create some controversy today with the opposition twins

Geez you're a drama queen. Blokes in their last game of footy don't go out of their way to knuckle someone.
