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"...!

    Dr. Turf and that idiot Stephen J. Peake in the commentary box would be the go!!

    :)

    ... & 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

    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.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
