Talking Footy

This is a one off whinge but I am at a loss why they have this over rated fool Meat Loaf performing at the AFL Grand Final. Every time I hear this guy or any of his songs I want to puke. I would rather have Kelly Clarkson! Get your act together AFL or Grim may defect to...Allah forbid...the NRL

Your right, that is pretty ordinary

Yeah grim

where " meat " is concerned
its a bit .... been there .... for us NRL fans

he performed at the NRL Grand Final ........... in 2003

Yes Grim this is a national disgrace! I too am disgusted this big ugly american ball of lard is coming to scream irrelevant lyrics at everyone before the game. Thank god I'm not going and can ignore the tv screen pregame.

Your correct King this is a national disgrace, I demand an inquiry into this with the powers of a Royal Commission. Whatis Vlad thinking? Next thing he will be rolling out ABBA for our Grand Finals...am not a happy Grim

and on the 7pm project they said you are paying 500K, is that correct. If so that would have to be up there with one of the biggest AFL waste of money ever.

Actually on second thoughts I will watch him sing today just to see the audience reaction.

Maybe the Native players can do a dance for him?

$500,000!!! For Meatloaf!!!

I wouldnt pay the chump $5

This effort really highlights a lack of class in AFL management. They must be such bogan trash (view any post of AFL 'Warrior' for definition of bogan trash). I guess the Collingwood fans, and perhaps most the crowd at the game will be happy to hear meatloaf belching out his American trash...

But having the Native players dancing and playing the didge will give them a sense of belonging as the AFL encourages it's Natives unlike the NRL.

There's been a lot of talk about the AFL tv rights deals on here lately. Seriously Grim you were on the mark, get your act together AFL. $500,000 for this!

If I was the funder for their next tv deal I'd be making it smaller than their last deal, they just waste their money!

The whole fukking performance is utter misery but jump to 5:30 for a special performance of his classic 'bat out of hell'

ps my apologies for highlighting this utterly disgusting performance on you tube. Its not even funny.

I would rahter what Meatloaf then Kelly Clarkson any day of the week.

Dont see why either code is paying for US star's, should be a good time to showcase some local talent.

prophetic words from Grim... he remains the most intelligent AFL poster on this site
saw a problem days out ... but i think even he would have been gob smacked with what " Meat " served up
it was atsonishing
& utterly appalling ..... to the point of being comical ....

No I'd prefer Kelly Clarkson any day. Even though she's completely shite, this meatloaf character physically induces you to vommit numerous times and in many ways. The way he looks, the way he sings, his lack of shame and his pretentiousness. Really really bad. Again TF members, i apologise for putting the clip up.
