Hey, just heard the news today that there is a new AFL LIVE coming July 16th. Anyone else as pumped as I am?

    The current version plays live match streaming 4:3 aspect ratio, cutting off the left and right hand side of the picture (dropping the time remaining etc.)

    But replays are full 16:9. So you ask why.

    Answer from Telstra: blame the 'broadcaster'. Presumably Foxtel is doing this to make their product better than the one you get with the AFL Live app. Telstra should tell Fox (and thus partly themselves) to stop playing games or they will lose subscriptions.

    As someone who doesn't want all the extra stuff you pay for with Foxtel, I think the app and its pricing are pretty good.

    But they seem to lose the plot during the Carlton -C Wood match. Screen goes blank for several minutes. Too many users I guess. The app seems fine for MFC matches. So there is some upside being a Demon's fan.

    i get excited about these games every year, since AFL 1999 came out.
    They are always so so so so bad, and full of bugs and i get disappointed.
    Rinse, and then repeat.
    Would love EA to take hold of one and do something with it.
    *sigh*

    Have always thought EA would be a great fit (especially with potential world exposure and how they consistently deliver the goods on all sports) but the AFL will never go for it. They make heaps more money from getting local virtually unknown companies to make the games and that's why there has never been an above average AFL game.

    My personal preference would be Rockstar though it'd be highly unlikely. But that would be the best company to make an AFL game.

    As bad as the AFL games are I still play the hell out of them, it's the only chance I get to see Melbourne winning a premiership and it's a bit of fun getting Clark a Coleman, Jones a Brownlow and Trengove a Norm Smith.

    Ahah why I like the suggestion of Rockstar making the game, it would end up being a game where players play AFL as we know it, but are also given a weapon each in the style of Battle Royale (and for the not so film/book savvy Demonlanders: Hunger Games).

    Now that would make the game very interesting!

    As a kid I used to love a game called brutal football on PC. If you couldn't win the game by getting the ball in the oppositions goal you could pick up a sword and cut opponents heads off. I'm hoping they include this for the Melbourne team.

    A straight-up sports game with no weapons but hey, maybe you've only heard of them because of GTA.

    • GAMEDAY: Western Bulldogs

      It's Game Day and the Demons will be running out on the field with a new Head Coach, albeit a caretaker, for the first time in 3,060 days when they face the Western Bulldogs at the MCG today. What do you want to see from the Demons in the first match of the Post Simon Goodwin era?

    • Thank You Simon Goodwin

      As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

    • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

    • REPORT: West Coast

      The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

    • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?
