As the first premiership decider since 2006 without a Victorian side on the grand stage, fans have flocked from interstate as much as the local Melbourne suburbs for the match at the MCG. The streets were packed with fans of both persuasion for the grand final parade yesterday and more than 100,000 fans will be watching on today.
