Round 2 - 3 of our NAB Cup games not televised

[ashdemons22 235]

It just came to my attention that more than likely this week will be our only game on TV this NAB Cup campaign unless we make the grand final. In both round 2 and 3, we are playing in rural areas and Foxtel are not covering them.

Just thought I would let every one know who did not know already.

Very disappointing but guess that's the life of a Dee supporter.

At the end of 2012 season we were irrelevent to the competition.

Only by winning games during 2013 will we prove to be otherwise.

Start winning games and the world opens up until then we have no choice but to endure this crap position we find ourselves in.

You're being a bit sensationalist, aren't you OD?

Yes, a poor 2012, but this is purely based on a budgetary decisions made by Foxtel.

There are plenty of other games not covered, one that includes last year's premiers.

You mean we were relevant in 2012 jr?

Have you forgotten how many games we lost by 8+ goals.

How many games were over at quarter time.

We had one genuine win all season.

Yes not all games will be covered but the majority will be sides like us that don't rate.

club should see if it can do some sort of streaming of the match to give supporters the chance to see it. Surely the NBN has done 90% of country areas by now!

[Hannibal 5,814]

There are 36 NAB games of which 18 are being televised. So it's hardly just the MFC.

That said, we were probably the least watchable club in the league last year.

At best BH one of the worst three

[ashdemons22 235]

The Giants round 3 game is on foxtel, GC,Port and us are the only three teams that are getting stiched up with not one game in round 2 or 3. The bulldogs also get a coverage game in round 2.

I'd say the worst. Most neutral supporters were quite interested in watching the Giants last year and to a lesser extent the Suns.

I'm sure the club will do a live chat with commentary like last year

[Pates 9,660]

On a different note the march 9 match v st Kilda at Casey we should try to make a massive turnout. Show Casey that we (the entire club) are embracing the area as a part of us.

I agree. I like watching up close at Casey and having a stubby. You can't beat it. We should get a demonland marquee happening. Have some beers and anyone with some differences on here can sort it out on the field for half time entertainment.

Just love the idea cfh.

could well be better than the game

I'd jump in at half time but I don't have a problem with anyone on here. Even if I did I start off well but finish very poorly and then CW will be all over it. I can't handle another investigation. Could we get a marquee and name it "the vault"?

I acknowledged we were terrible....but do you really think they want to send a commentary to Renmark? Or Alice Springs?

I was a decision made on budgets, not on watchability.

bwahahahaaa

There are more GWS supporters than there are people hooked up to that thing...

[Supermercado 2,802]

A live stream or at least a radio call would be nice, but I really don't expect that any game played in Renmark will ever get a run on TV.

Was it Ballarat where they had that North game last year that Foxtel tried to broadcast and ended up delivering silence for the first quarter? No wonder they've decided it's not worth their while to go to the country.

[Elwood 3184 1,338]

I reckon 5AA might do the Renmark game.

I'll be off to Casey Fields for the St. Kilda game and then off to watch us in the NAB Cup grannie.

[RalphiusMaximus 6,088]

I'm not that fussed. We might be able to DL the games from the AFL site. The round three game against the Saints is at Casey so I might head over and watch it live.

[Whispering_Jack 30,674]

Hamish McLaughlin will probably announce this as one of our negotiated penalties for the anonymous crime we will be charged with shortly.
