Re: Grand Final Predictions

How does this effect the salary cap ?
Player will be payed extra fore the extra game and what hppens to players and coaches on bonuses if they play in the GF ?
Do the get double there bonuses ?

I'm sure they just recognise it as an exception to the salary cap as it isn't something clubs should have to plan for.

Re: Grand Final Predictions

My only concern is the Bucks night I have planned for Saturday. We were headed to Turnbull Stakes now unsure whether thats going ahead on the Sat/Sun and then entertainment in the city (by some lovely ladies) was planned Saturday night - don't really wanna be in the city on Saturday night now. Hoping the VRC make their decision today, move it to the Sunday and then we can make it a Bucks weekend

Oh and Ben McEvoy - count your lucky stars.

Re: Grand Final Predictions

Collingwood easily (10 + goals).

Norm Smith: Luke Ball

First Goal: Darren Jolly

Anyone know what the odds were for Jolly first goal?

Surely would've been a decent return.

I got one thing right on the day - didn't have any money on it though.

That link is for Grand Final Ticket information. Much less corporate tickets, and alot more available to members of competing clubs! Great news imo!

The extra 14,000 tickets being allocated to Collingwood and St Kilda members are the allocation that is normally given to the 14 non-competing clubs for players, officials, cotorie groups, sponsors and premium packages. Many of those packages were bought by desperate Collingwood and St Kilda supporters (non members or basic members who missed out on the ticket ballot).

The allocation to AFL corporate partners has not been reduced.

Re: Grand Final Predictions

How good was Heath Shaw's dive to dislodge the ball just as Reiwoldt was about to kick a Saints goal? Inspirational!! Tom Harley was moved to refer to it as one of the best pieces of play he's ever seen.

Re: Grand Final Predictions

From one of the best GF's to one of the worst. This has been a dreadful game so far.

Is Alan Didak the most gutless player in the AFL? I don't think I've ever seen a player squib contests so much. He was the same last week.

Re: Grand Final Predictions

St Kilda still not out of it, controlled big chunks of the game. If they are a little cleaner with disposal, they will get back into the match.

Peake has had an absolute shocker.

Re: Grand Final Predictions

As good as Gilbert was that half he should have kicked at least two goals. Saints are off the boil.

Re: Grand Final Predictions

Peake has had an absolute shocker.

That turn over which resulted into a Collingwood goal is his signature kick in my view. Always a chance of a turnover.

Had one last week as well.

Best thing to happen last week was the Gardnier injury. Play him in the ruck!

Agree, when will they ever learn that he's not a KPF.
