Turn it up precious. Why the hell would you wanna stick around for that if you're the losing team? The respects and congrats are already done amongst the players, plus the coach and captain probably visit the changerooms after anyway.

Nah worse than poor, that's un-Australian. Would expect to see that in soccer not footy
Re medal preso's, im pretty sure almost 100% of losing clubs leave the ground for the medal presentations. They stay for the cup and BOG but when it comes to the individual medals its time to go

Yep, exactly. Obviously these other 2 haven't been to many grand finals in their time.

Oh well, can't help the way they feel I guess.
Been to plenty thanks mate, I'll admit I didn't give the comment my full attention and assumed they left during cup preso's
We left the ground once the real formalities done. Presentation of medals is winning clubs time. We respect Henley greatly, Jarrad and his coaching staff are quality blokes, really enjoyed our contests this year.
Disappointed us a bit I guess that they chose to wear their home strip rather than clash. We wore our clash in 2nd Semi. But hey, not worth worrying about,
We've had a great season, our lads have done us proud, real proud. No chocolates, but we know we are headed in the right direction. It's tough losing GF's no doubt, but we will keep putting ourselves out there and giving it a real crack.
exactly what I said when I saw them run out, I was expecting their away strip and I actually had to consult the handbook to see if they're a clash but they're not.
Unfortunately they were well within their rights to wear it but from the grandstand it didn't look good.
i dare say there may be a change in the future..
Also noticed they did a crows stance during the national anthem too
