Great job by Lionel Ritchie. The crowd responded well to his performance.

Re: Pink Snubbed For Lionel Ritchie.

I hope the Saints smash Collingwood into the ground. I hate their fans. They are arrogrant tools. The worst supporter base in the country of any code. Surely they could have kept quiet for five minutes.

Saints make my day. I want to see sookie la la faces of Colliewobble supporters all around the ground. Otherwise what is the cheapest flight out of Melbourne for a while lol.

Re: Pink Snubbed For Lionel Ritchie.

Not a fan, but he is a true professional and putting on a good show......
Great face work to for a 61 year old....

Yes.

Singing live, working the crowd and getting them involved, looking like he wants to be there and is enjoying himself (the band members doing the same).

First-class.

I hope someone that matters reads this thread, would love him to be back next year, the bloke's a star.

For those wanting Pink....don't think 16 year old girls is the key demographic of the AFL

Didn't think 60 year old grandmothers was the AFL's key demographic either.

I thought he was bloody good. First song was a bit slow but people were actually singing along for once.

Probably just extracting the urine or doing it to stay awake. After all, people were getting into Kamahl at the BDO a few years back too. Doesn't necessarily mean they were going to rush out and buy his back catalogue.

This. Could not agree more.

And speaking of band members- roflmao at the guitarist (?) on extreme close up taking off his sun glasses and doing that "look" to camera. What a gun.

All up a great performance, I was dancing around my living room tbh.

Some of you flogs need to lighten up, it's a football game not a royal gala performance.

Did anyone else see the absolutely shithouse body paint job on the Collingwood supporter walking into the ground just now?

Even Dennis agreed! Lionel a universal winner.

Re: Pink Snubbed For Lionel Ritchie.

I'm guessing that following on from the "success" of today's pre-match entertainment, we'll be getting either Tom Jones, Leo Sayer or John Paul Young next year.
