For some reason that doesn’t sound large enough. Watching it all live on tv with the lead up to the game soon! Amazed I am….that our Melbourne weather behaved! I’m certain all the visitors from overseas were told to expect four seasons in one day

For such a big ticket event, perhaps a helicopter transfer would have been quicker - and safer

This has been going on for like 50 years now. I think half time entertainment is some Aussie men in women's clothes. I'm not watching.

I’m happy the 49ers won!
That Brock Purdy is quite impressive. Quick thinking!
This game is a quick.
There was a general opinion that the Rams would win, maybe if they didn’t played while jet lagged after a 16 hour flight they may have scored better. I’m wondering if any of them knew how long these plane trips would be like, if any of them ever travelled very far from their own country?
It takes me a good 24-48 hours to recover from a long flight. But that’s in crammed cattle class, I bet these guys went business or maybe first class? More comfortable with extra leg room and reclining seat position.
Seems 49ers had the edge on that jet lag alone coming in earlier.
I’m interested to go to a game at some point. But I never trust Melbourne weather Grin

But wow what glorious weather it turned out today.
Good ole unpredictable surprising Melbourne Grin

Now tell me, how can Melbournians afford these Sporting events. But can't afford to fill potholes and keep crime off the streets?

Watched channel 7 news - and about only 2 seconds of the game and then stories of all the footy pisspots drinking in bars made up the rest of the 9 minutes of coverage.
