Surely Matt Burgan and or Robbo (with special comments from the Gawn Dog??) can take a leaf out of Port's book, and set up a tripod and camera at Casey this week, and supply us with a live broadcast of the match via the Melb website. Can't be that hard!

Here's hoping...!

    As long as we don't get comments like "that St Kilda player", I'm all for it ;)

    LOL. What would be even worse would be "that MELBOURNE player"...!

    ... & send Robbo out on the Turf with a Car Key, & dare I say it, a micro phone? :unsure:

    Would love the club to take some initiative with this coverage.

    Take a leaf out of commercial radio, get in some volunteer commentators (or Matt and Ellie) and have repeated references to the 'Opel Goal of the Day' and the 'Webjet Flight (mark) of the Day' to help keep the sponsors happy.

    It's not a huge audience, but it also wouldn't take much to setup.

    With the abundance of streaming services out there today, something like this should be very simple. The hardest part would be having a decent enough internet connection to stream in good quality

    Absolutely! Wouldn't be hard to emulate Port's effort. And I, for one, would be over the moon if they did!

    Yeah the main problem would be the internet connection, given it's not in a 4g area and the data would be considerable. A recording for later viewing should be pretty easy though. I'd do it but I don't have a video camera.

    Harder than Renmark?

    Please tell me you mean Russell Robertson and not Mark Robinson.

    Yes I do... ha ha ha. & lets see if we can get him to chase some interviewees around. that'll test him, unless their in frilly short skirts.

    I would be pretty sure that the club does record these games. After all, I'm sure someone reported earlier in the year that it was recording training sessions.

    Renmark wasn't streamed, it was archived and put online the following day.

    I saw that article. Didn't they say they had HD cameras at either end of the ground for the entire training session? That would be more than enough to get some decent footage of the game.

    Is that right. Okay, we go one better and stream ours...!

    4G has nothing to do with it. Hopefully they aren't going to be videoing it off their phones.

    Casey isn't exactly Liam Jurrah Remote... it has cable.

    I wouldn't be surprised if they weren't allowed to stream it live. But I would be happy with a recording to watch the following few days

  • Quote

    Club has been tweeting that they are going to record whole game and put on website, somebody asked about playing "live" they said not possible, probably something to do with broadcast rights etc

  • Quote

    The GWS v Brisbane game was streamed live from Wagga over the weekend, was basically just a camera on the wing with (I think) Hutchy and a couple others commentating.

    I think the tweet mentioned that the MFC website couldn't handle a live stream.

    I am not too worried, if the club is spending money on someone to setup a live stream of practice games - what a waste of money.

    The AFL should have set this up themselves - it's their bloody role - promote the game.

    So, if THEY can do it, why on earth can't our outfit...?? We might be the oldest club in the land. But, just a little bit of modern thinking in the IT realm wouldn't be a bad idea, surely! Can't be THAT hard, surely!

    Probably because Wagga was fitted out with 4g by Telstra last year.

    Anyone know if there is a radio broadcast of the game? I'm at work all day but would love to listen in

    Lol, 4G isn't phone technology mate, it's wireless networking technology, and if you're in a regional footy ground in the middle of nowhere, with no decent cable or high grade adsl connection, how do you think your going to upload the streaming data? A few tin cans?

    Even if they did have decent cable access at Casey, you then have to wire to your recording device, put in a fair bit of time and effort testing, etc. THen as mentioned elsewhere you have the bandwidth limitations of the MFC site, etc.

    I doubt the club would stream live, most "Live" transmissions are on delay for legal reasons.

    I know it is only a practise game, but if something goes wrong and it hits youtube..

    I would expect to watch a replay in 24 hours.

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

      Kozzy Pickett was the man of the match last week and has a vote lead over backup ruck Max Heath who didn't play this week and 5 votes over former Saint Jack Steele. Who gets the votes in this weeks shortened match win over the Tigers? Your votes please. 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1.

      It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
