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"...!

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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

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.

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

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.

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.

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
