He was only bored because he was out coached and had nothing left in the bag

correct, but what would the players feel about their coach saying that?

Mark Williams has shamed the Port Adelaide AND Williams name this week

I understand the replay of this game when Fox Footy have their Guest Programmer month (Cam Mooney gives it a plug), but outside of Crow and Cat fans, what neutral would give a shit about this game?

Has no place in "history month", which has showcased some cracking games of bygone eras.

Watching a team dismantle another and put on a clinic on the big stage can still be entertaining for a 'neutral'. ie Hawthorn smacking Sydney a few years ago was great viewing IMO.

Lol. There would be like 20 people watching it anyway. Surely they have time for every grand final. Especially when it’s as noteworthy as this was :)

I’d happily give a review of the game given the opportunity ;)

I watched the 1965 Grand Final the other night on DVD, between Essendon & St. Kilda, I was actually at the game, it was my under 18 end of year footy trip. Standing room only in those days with a crowd of over 100,000. people. Any way the most noticeable thing in watching it was just how much the game has changed. 1 field umpire, 2 boundary umpires, no out of bounds penalty , no throwing the ball back on the full following a free kick, lots of drop kicks which in a lot of cases were not that accurate, just to mention a few, and of course the pace of the game. Still loved watching it again and the bombers won.

Yep, The Cats topped Hawthorn's 96 point thumping of Melbourne back in 1988.
