Name-A-Game sale

[The Big Ticket 94]

Anyone having any luck getting on the site yet? It must be majorly overloaded, I've been trying all afternoon.

[Dr. Gonzo 24,366]

Yeah it crashed about a minute after 12 but is somewhat better now. The sale goes to midday tomorrow so you can try getting on later tonight - however on their facebook page it says you can email them orders if you want otherwise you can call to order if you are buying less than 10 games.

[dee-luded 2,959]

Correct. I’ve tried like hell to get this one (it was my first day at the footy), but no dice.

Now that you mention it, I have an freind/aquaitance who's a CH:7 outside broadcast consultant.

Maybe his, or WYL's contacts could do something from the Perth end of things, privately.

[wattsup 470]

just finished finalising my order took a while to get on but i bought

2000 qualifying final against blues

2000 prelim against north

2002 round 1 against hawks(is this the game where neita smashed luke mccabe i hope so)

2000 against pies when farmer went nuts and kicked 9 goals

2005 round 1 against bombers troy broadbridge game

2005 round 3 v geelong neitz 250th and he kicked his 500th goal not sure why i got this game was just a fond memory

would be happy to do some trades with people once im done with them

[Kiss of Death 759]

Trying not to laugh here..

Serously in the meantime, looking for those games i need. Just tracked down Vardy in the rain at Subi almost 10 years ago. Time flies.

BTW 2005 round 3 was a brilliant night out for me, surrounded by cocky friends and we were never in doubt, it's on my list too.

89 mate. Only silverware i have ever seen "live"

I don't know anyone in perth at all sorry.

[Supermercado 2,802]

Website is still in disarray. According to Facebook you can email them for 'orders of 10 DVDs or less' but there's no way they're going to turn back your money if you email them with more. Will take that route if site is still crocked tomorrow morning.

i just kept refreshing the page and eventually i snuck in did take me about an hour though

[wattsup 470]

they have said they will extend the sale another 24 hours due to clogging issues

I thought you might have a CH:7 contact here, who could access Perth library archive?

I knew an outside broadcast consultant troubleshooter who works all over the world, but not in contact right now. I could try to ask.

#Edit: I've just searched that game details & it was an MCG game. So I see, what you meant was it wasn't shown into Melbourne, TV? Was it televised into Perth?

Geez, I can't remember it atmo.

I might have been still in shock after '87 & '88... I must have watched it.

I remember working 7 days a week through that time, 9 - 10 Hr days...

All i can say is the game was at the 'G in 93. It would have been shown into Perth i have no doubt, but i don't think ch 7 Perth would still have anything more than highlights by now.

I wonder if the MFC would leep copies of all these games? Might ring them next week.

[Dr. Gonzo 24,366]

2000 R7 v WCE

2001 R2 v Adel

2006 R21 v Geel

1991 R5 v NM

1991 R6 v Coll

1994 R4 v Ess

1994 R6 v Coll

Ended up ordering the games above plus

1999 R7 v Ess

1987 R7 v Coll

1987 R10 v Ess

1995 R17 v NM

1995 R13 v Rich

Hopefully these ones have been mastered so they are included in the sale. Was going to get the 2002 semi against Adelaide but couldn't bring myself to pay for a game we lost.

I jumped on this morning and the site was working fine so hopefully it stays that way throughout today.

Hi XXX, customer

The demand on the site is still huge and our phones have been running hot all day so I apologise for that. If you would like to email through your delivery address and phone number and the games you are after. We will then contact you in the next few business days to take payment.

Kindest regards
