Good
afternoon everyone, it's Matt Burgan here from a very sunny, warm Casey
Fields. The Melbourne v St Kilda clash will start at 2.30pm. We're not
far away.

The Saints have just run onto the ground. We won't be far away! Matt.

Big Crowd there Burgo??

2:22

Hmm
... hard to tell. I reckon about 3,000 at this stage. I'm up in the
stands and not sure how many are below ... looking at the gates though,
quite a few people are still coming through.

2:24

It really is cricket weather. It's going to be a very hot one. Six on the bench today for each team. No rotation caps.

St Kilda still only the 1 inside 50.

[Young Dee 1,303]

Are these updates annoying anyone?

Magner and Watts - good hussling work by the duo on the wing. Boundary throw in.

[Traja Dee 108]

Burgo, your commentary is awesome. I'm in my study trying to catch up on some work and really thrilled by the detailed, structured, Melbourne-orientated commentary. Much better than the commentary on the AFL match-day site and almost as good as having the radio on.

Now I had better try to switch off, do some work and revisit in, say, 10 45 minutes time or so.

[Bay Riffin 1,481]

anyone know why wilkes changed his name to maiser?

I heard it was to take his mums surname.

[hardtack 10,627]

Burgo saying Sylvia's done a few good things early.
