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.

    I'll be extremely pumped if it has a franchise option like Madden of Fifa.

    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.

    No, no no. I am well aware of their other escapades.

    But hey, way to ruin the joke I was having.

    • NON-MFC: Round 02

      The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Sunday’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

    • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

      As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

    • PREGAME: Fremantle

      After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

    • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

      Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
