If it is we can't win. We hate playing during the day. We can only win if it is played at night. How many games over the years have we lost during the day compared to night? Heaps!!

Who the lima lima lima duck changed the time of this final??!!

Strange reasoning there.

I'm glad it's on at 5pm.

Have you kept a track of our oppositions winning records during the day?   ???

doesnt matter when we play.. at the end of the day its a footy field, there is a ball and two teams with a shitty ref. Its just a coincidence that we lose a few day games here and there.

I have to disagree. Our record is atrocious during the day. Go back over the records and you will see this is so true. I'm shattered now that I heard it is on at 5.00pm. I have booked my flights but now I'm checking the cancellation conditions on my ticket.

Again I ask why has the time changed from previous years. I bet the NRL changed it knowing our disastrous record.

no i think it was changed for reasons such as ; family friendly time slot, better tv time slot , etc...

Time was changed pre-season. But it really doesn't matter. Trolls always appear this time of year. Something to do with Spring. Anyways, they belong to a species called Chicken Little. Constantly proclaiming that the sky is falling down! ;)

its 5pm as a compromise between the NRL and TV who wanted a 7pm, whereas the NRl wanted back to 3pm

TV 7pm...not down here it wont be.

On 2GB after the match they were saying that there was concern that Nine wont be showing it until 7.30pm in Melbourne....mind you they will do a newsbreak with the scores like they always do before the broadcast.

I just hope that 2GB have got it wrong.
