I could rant about the eagles insipid performance but I'll change the topic. Lets face it - the days of SANFL crowds getting 35,000+ have long gone. Yes the eagles have a small supporter base but the amount of centrals supporters showing up to each GF each year has also diminished.
I would like nothing better to see 40,000 at the SANFL grand final and I will go regardless of my team in or not. But in previous years I have been appalled at the Grand final entertainment. Who has suggestions of what we can do? Here are some potential ones after thinking about this for all of 1 minute
1. Include a live local band or as good as we can get play at half time
2. Include a SANFL player 100m sprint at Half time and maybe also a relay
3. Have a supporter competition goal kicking competition.
4. Have a Crows/Power mini coaching clinic where those players where their SANFL guenseys and will only allow kids in SANFL guenseys on to participate
I am not sure what we could do before the game but there must be someone with suggestions. As it currently stands, the entertainment is woeful.

I know you have tried to steer away from this mr fuller, but I reckon the game itself has been a killer for the crowds.
Off-field entertainment has always been crap, need to get a high standard of footy to get the crowds in, IMHO.

Look, I think that the songs The Final Countdown and Simply The Best havvveee to be played. They're a must.
I also reckon large numbers of people bootscootin would also be brilliant. And I think they should be handing out small, cushy footballs to the crowd.
That's pre-match entertainment gold in my eyes.

Bring back Jubilee Wombat - the star of the 1986 GF half time entertainment.

I agree. I've never seen the point in anything else other than the game. Just get on with it.

I think bring back Helen Demenko, or some sort of wardrobe malfunction.
They don't keep me here because I'm gorgeous and 5'10

NOT AT THE SAME TIME!
If you want to go quickly, go alone.
If you want to go far, go together.

And certainly not now 25 years past the event........Mind you it would be a perfect opportunity for FC's avatar to work.....
Let that be a lesson to you Port, no one beats the Bays five times in a row in a GF and gets away with it!!!
