I reckon Freo will win the flag. I might be crazy, but I just reckon they will.

There's no love for Freo, with good reason, their last month has been poor.....but, they're top for a reason.

It seems like it is what old people consider good music, if that makes sense.

Like OMFG we can get all of these "stars" for cheap! without realising that nobody wants to see these guys for a reason

What a massive opportunity to showcase some of Australia's best musical talent.
Yet again we get washed up overseas acts no one has cared about for years or some overseas pop star that almost completely misses the footy watching demographic.

There'd be Aussie bands/acts lining up to play for free (or relatively nothing) just for the exposure, that would put in 1000x the performance we are gonna get again this year.

I hate few songs more than I hate "Summer of '69". I just can't stand it. Now it's going to be the last thing we hear before the biggest Saturday afternoon of the year.
