What would be your AFL fantasy - should you be granted a wish?

Question

Mine would be to sit in a VIP box at the MCG at next years AFL grand final - watching the West Coast Eagles playing Collingwood.

Collingwood would lead comfortably all day & then the Eagles would storm home late in the last quarter & win by one point!

I'd die happy if that happened.

Answer 1

I would like to be able to blink like in Bewitched or I Dream of Jeannie (TV shows of the 60's) and be in Oz to see the Cats every week instead of only having radio via the Internet each week.

That way I would get to see a match (haven't  been to Oz since 2003) since here in America, there is no viable television of the footy since 2005. Thanks a lot to Andrew the rocket scientist for that.

You can't get too greedy to have your side win the Grand Final, just getting to see a match once in a while would be great.

Right now, it would cost about $1700US to fly from Kansas City or Wichita to Oz, then a hotel and game tickets through AFL Travel and spending money. Just to start out, about $3000-3500US.

All you all in Oz, I hope you all enjoy what you have that we in America don't have.

I want my footy!

Answer 2

My fantasy would be for all the AFL teams have a 'seconds' team & these teams play curtain raisers prior to the league matches.

That way fans could have an extended watching period, if they so desired, & be able to see squad members who have not been selected in the league side, i.e. players coming back from injury, relegated players, up-and-coming players etc .

I am aware that this wont be happening but after all this is a fantasy question!

Answer 3

VIP seats to the grand final , watching The Bombers play the Magpies would be great

Answer 4

The same as yours with just a subtle change. The game info is the same, but if this is a fantasy lets chuck in that in a surprise move in the preseason draft they choose me. I have a strong preseason and make it into the team for round 1.

The year goes well for both West Coast and me finishing minor premiers and to my surprise a brownlow comes my way.

The one point win was a kick after the siren from 70 metres out. I can't believe I kicked it that far as in my youth I could only kick 40-45 metres.

Answer 5

Yeah, VIP seats to the Grand Final would suit me as well. Watching whoever, doesn't worry me who, thrashing Collingwood. My fantasy would be that I would be in the same VIP box as Eddie Everywhere!

Just to be there & watch Eddie while the Pies got flogged would be ever so enjoyable!

Answer 6

VIP seats to the grand final , watching The Hawks win the GF. It doesn't matter who they play, just seeing them win a GF would be great.

Answer 7

Well mine would be having Ben Cousins playing for the Kangaroos.

Now,after one of the games I'd be in the change rooms.

In slow motion Ben will walk up to me all sweaty and hot and starts to take of his jersey and hands it to me.

OH man....I'm sorry but that's it for me!!!! hehehe

Duck for cover everyone...Thumbs down invasion ahead!!!!

Oh and your fantasy sounds ok to but mine would be Kangaroos beating Geelong of course.
