GF in Perth makes a lot of sense if they can stay Covid-free.
Would be a much better spectacle and help kill off the '2020 is not a real season' criticism.
Nothing would be lamer than the full time siren going at the MCG followed by a meek few cheers from 5,000 distanced fans.

saw on the news this morning the SCG is always campaigning hard for it, possibly a better location for interstate people to make the journey and it will be nice for the swans to play at home
covid free WA will probably trump all thought
-
60k at a brand new stadium is hard to ignore.
-
@mariner4life very true....but if neither WA team make the final will perth fill it? interstate people wont have the time to self quarantine if their team make the final

You'd hope so but they are a parochial bunch.
I'd put WA over Sydney because it's a safer bet to be Covid-free in November. Who knows what will happen here, we've got much higher potential for an outbreak than they do in Perth.

Have it at the Gabba.
It'll be packed to the gills when it's the Lions v the Suns

Reckon they'd fill the stadium for a GF regardless who is playing. Just because the event.
Mind you a home GF for the Crows at the Adelaide Oval ... oh ...

That's cold.
True.
But cold.

tough night @Kiwiwomble
Must hurt to hear all the chat of your best player leaving at the end of the year
To fucking Carlton of all places
It shows how fucked up the AFL is as a competition when perennial dumpster fire club Carlton is still seen as a destination for any inter-state free agent that comes up.

yeah, we were shit, for some reason we are really bad at marks in the 50...which seems like a pretty bad failing, have been for the last years or so
paps wants to go so we got to let him or he'll just just become a bad influence...we just need to find someone to replace him other than daniher..between him and buddy..our medical bill will go through the roof
-
@barbarian exactly that but he and daniher are out of contract this season, from memory, so they just swap i believe

i would do a lot to keep Papley over Daniher

me too but if hes unhappy you have to be concerned if his form will drop and we'll be stuck with him
i also think we need someone who can take a mark rather than a small forward..relying on him kicking from 50 aint work for us

fair point
The Lions have had a few over the past few years. We've let them go. And now they can't get a game. EAD
