Just finished watching first half.

After FOXTEL saying they have so many cameras following the play.

and wont miss anything.

They then miss the most basic behind the play incident.

Dermie then has to explain what he thinks he saw. (totally amateurish)

One thing I have learned from the first half. Tigers are crap and kangas are worse.

GO DEES

dusty martin looks like having a big year though

I always took it as no commercials during regular play time ie siren to siren each qtr I can't understand why anyone would be worried about between qtr ads

Rhett, if you're still watching this thread the following sentence this page (http://www.foxtel.com.au/xbox/packages/default.htm?presel=pbtm) is a shocker: "Don’t add AFL now. For free^ AFL trail jus

Any danger of putting Dwayne up against a wall and shooting him? Would make a great one-off special.

It just gets worse for Tigers & Kangas.

Should I suggest that one of them would provide the first win to GWS?

I know it's early but gee they really look shite.

Don't think they looked too bad for 1st game of the NAB Cup. They were both competitive and made some mistakes that are to be expected.

I reckon thats what I may have done. Now I feel like an idiot!

No you didn't Wonna.

I got the T-box option and missed the first game saturday night. i had a message on my screen saying tune into pies v dogs at 8:10 as there is no football on now.

I rang Telstra and got some overseas numbnut who had no ides what footy was. Jumped on bigfooty and asked those giving score updates what was going on and got this link in reply http://www.foxtel.com.au/whats-on/blackout/default.htm

This is February's list, No Melb V Bris live next week. I paid for all the footy live and as far as I'm concerned I've been lied too and ripped off. What guareentee's do I have this won't happen in the season proper. Their own staff are ignorant of the product they are selling which makes assistance impossible.

I am really furious about this and I'll be removing all my business from this shitstain of a company.

Live vision not great on iPad...vision keeps dropping out.

I was watching on Friday night and it dropped out quite a few times, though a refresh got the video stream back quickly.

I watched for about 90 minutes on Saturday night (GWS, Collingwood, WB) and it only cut out once. Also watched about 20 minutes last night with no problems.

I should note that it automatically cuts out after 60 minutes as you can only stream in 60 minute blocks for some reason, even though you can start streaming straight away.

The vision is only so/so, can be difficult to make out the numbers on the count down timer at times, although it was much better last night with the Ess v WC v Freo game.

Overall, I think it is worth the $50 for the entire season, which includes match summaries, press conferences and so on. It's a shame you cannot replay games and can only watch them live though.

Had the same problem, rang Telstra complained and got $20 off for the month, and I only joined on Friday afternoon.

What a f'ing joke. Paying $365 for 7 months of footy and we don't even get our nab cup games. Add to that how glitchy the service is. Disconnecting tomorrow and requesting a refund.

Did you manage to make contact and disconnect ? If so, I hope you advised them of the reasoning so they can investigate the quality of signal delivered to you

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag
