Most of the Service personal and ex-members from the 3 services will be half tanked by the time the 1st games get underway today.
This talk of being disrespectful is rubbishToday games are about the fighting Aussie sprit and playing footy is the best way we can show this and the respect we show before the bounce of each game.
Remember the old diggers luv thier footy!
The nothing before 12 tradition stems from making everyone available for the march in the city i believe, correct me if i'm wrong.
So yes it is a bit disrespectful, as i believe some traditions should be upheld.
I was at the holdfast shores dawn service and will be watchingthe march on tv.
