Poll - What week should SANFL grand final be on?

Postby PhilH » Thu Oct 01, 2009 10:45 pm

Interesting discussion on RPH League Teams Show tonight as to what week the SANFL Grand Final should be on.

I'm interested to know the punters thoughts on this matter.

2 weeks after the AFL Grand Final would be great to give the Preliminary final a boost in media coverage.

Yep, would be great, prelim and then GF both on Saturdays, but given trends of recent years it would start to cut into summer sports - bet most local comps would start on this proposed weekend.
Keep it as it is, but maybe find a way to have it on a Saturday arvo.

Night Prelim and bring the Grand Final back to a Saturday arvo.
It's all the SANFL's fault.

it doesn't always fall on the long weekend, the public holiday is the 1st Monday in October, if the holiday is on the 1st it is the day after the AFL GF (as it was in 2007)

The SANFL gets more coverage this week because the AFL is finished, they'd be mad to ever make it earlier.
The only annoying thing about the SANFL GF is that its clashed with Bathurst most years but that isn't the case this year which is great. Would have been perfect if it was on Saturday so it wouldn't overlap NRL GF celebrations.
Back to Saturday arvo for the GF but keep it on the same weekend!
