Re: NFL Crapfest Reply #1 – September 11, 2026, 01:03:37 pm Not there but watching it. Cracking day to be there. I don't know why I enjoy it, but I do. Biggest knock is that 60mins of playing time takes 3 hours Quote Selected
Re: NFL Crapfest Reply #2 – September 11, 2026, 01:08:26 pm Don't like it. Don't watch it. Simples.Clearly, i love my AFL.....and the NFL.Worldwide there is 100x more NFL supporters than AFL supporters.I've seen 2 games live, in the US.For reference, a regular season game between 2 teams with basically no rivalry (Vikings vs Seahawks) was louder than the Blues vs Cats 96k final we just had.....in a maxed out 60k odd open stadiumPeople who don't like it generally don't understand it.....and don't take the time to understand it.Easier to throw stones, rather than show interest.

Re: NFL Crapfest Reply #3 – September 11, 2026, 01:10:29 pm I would've loved to have gone, but baulked at the ticket prices.I saw 2 games, bought food, drinks and probably the nights accomodation (x2) for those 2 games for less than a ticket to this game would cost. Ridiculously overpriced. Especially when you see what some of the ground level seats can 'see'. Quote Selected

The day they were on sale the 'cheap' tickets were $400 and the expensive ones were $600 or so.They do dynamic ticketting i think, so the more in demand they are, the more expensive they get.

Behind the goals, they would be the "cheapest" tickets, but considering you couldn't get one... Quote Selected

I could have got one, i just chose not to pay (minimum) $400 for it when i can watch at home for free.If it was a Vikings game, i would've gone. Quote Selected

Re: NFL Crapfest Reply #9 – September 11, 2026, 01:47:51 pm The people who are duded are those who paid way overs for front row at ground level on the wing, late purchasing at top dollar, they made the assumption they were the best seats in the house and were screwed over, due to the relative size and curvature of the ground they are basically looking at a bench full of arses!The best seats would have been up a level front row.

Re: NFL Crapfest Reply #12 – September 11, 2026, 02:05:56 pm There's photos emerging of our blokes being there.Gov, Walshy, Crippa, Cottrell, Weitering, i think a couple others. Also reckon i saw Jamo next to Crippa. Perhaps the rumours of him coming to take over from diesel are true. Quote Selected
Re: NFL Crapfest Reply #13 – September 11, 2026, 04:31:47 pm They're seppos, of course they will "ignorant of the venue" Quote Selected
