What are people thoughts on good places to watch the final?
I'm after a big screen, atmosphere, and ability to be able to still hear the commentary if possible. |

These are options I've found so far. Haven't been to any of these venues in ages. Not sure what their screen quality is like.
Cricketers arms
The Royal
London Taven

Where do you live?
Check out your local RSL as an option.
Also, maybe check with the club, I thought I saw something that they'll be showing it on the big screen at the Holden centre.

Unless at the game, can't beat the comfort of home. Dickhead and opposition fan free zone, volume control, easy access to refreshments and amenities and no concerns about transport! 
Actually, if it weren't for the atmosphere you get at the game, I'd watch them all at home.

I find myself in agreement with that. With so many fkn Sunday games, I watched most games from home this season.

The game will be on at the Holden Centre.
I’m thinking about going.
Has anyone been to watch games on the big screen there?

About 10 years ago when I was younger and stupider. We played a nicks game at Gosches paddock earlier (IIRC umpired by KB's son), then went to the then Lexus centre, watched the game on the big screen, then walked to King St.
My overall recollections, apart from being busy and hard to get a beer, are a tad fuzzy.

I live a footy oval from the York. Massive chance.
