I've just joined up to AFL live pass so I can watch todays game. Does anyone know if it can be chromecast to the TV? I assume that I can watch it on my computer and I don't have to have a mobile or tablet to see it.

Thanks for any help.

It's on the MFC website - no need for AFL live pass today.

 

It's a windy day today so expect plenty of skill errors. The ground is notoriously unprotected from the wind so it's certainly going to be a challenge for the players.

Yeah, the stream's free on the club website today, so no need to sign up. We were airplaying the game last night off an iPhone so I imagine a tablet would be just as easy. We had it in mirror mode and it worked fine.

I'll be playing it off my laptop with a HDMI cable plugged into the tv because I find that easiest.

Other options are to load it through a 'SmartTV' or you can bring it up on a playstation/Xbox if you have one of those.

Edit: just had a look at Chromecast. You'd probably have to bring up the club website on Chrome and play it through there. Shouldn't be too much hassle. I haven't used it, but it looks like it works much the same as Samsung SmartTVs.

Thanks Yoss, I'll give it a go. I'm not great with this sort of thing...

The surface is looking good. I'm in the ground already. If anyone is here early keep an eye out for one of our own umpiring the AFL 9's pre-game entertainment.

It's windy AF too, worse than it was at home. Expect the majority of the play to be on the opposite side to the cameras/grandstand, although if you sit on that side you'll have the sun in your eyes.

Doesn't look like the players are here yet, I managed to sneak down to the rooms but there were only a few trainers down there.


For chromecast users if you have a recent android device (using 4.4 if I remember correctly) you can go into the chromecast app and press 'cast screen' in the menu and you can watch whatever is on your screen.

I've done this the last two weeks and it's watchable, nowhere near hd though.

Since today's game is being streamed online downloading the chromecast add on in chrome on the computer and casting a chrome tab may be better quality, although I'm no expert on this yet

So they've come out and said they are treating today's game as if it was round 1. If certain players consistenly produce simple errors against an undermanned Bulldogs side they need to have their papers stamped.

Last time I saw MFC playing in Ballarat, we had a big win and Norm Smith left at three quarter time..

Grimes and Matt Jones are going to putting lots of footies in the grandstand by the sound of things

Hogan is playing today - just confirmed with one of the staff.

Oh dear, it's started already.

It's at least a 40-50kph wind going straight across the ground, it probably won't favour an end but it's going to make things easy.

Likely side (based on last week)

B: Jetta Dunn Frost

HB: O'Brien Tom Mac Salem

C: M.Jones Viney Cross

HF: Bail Dawes Garlett

F: vandenberg Hogan JKH

Ru: Jamar Tyson N.Jones

Int from: Newton, Gawn, Toumpas, Garland, Grimes, Michie

Subs: Watts (full game next week), McKenzie

Left out: Pedo, B. Stretch, Fitzy (all playing VFL practice game)

Let's not skirt around this. If treating it as a Rd 1 game and looking to win, with the side the Dogs are putting out, we should belt them.

Sorry I will rephrase it for you. I don't care how Grimes plays as long as he speaks well.

Are you actually going to be watching it or are you just wallowing in the misery at home, I have other commitments so can't, so have to rely on the wonderful coverage on here

Exactly, as Tmac alluded to, "we don't have the luxury of taking these games lightly"

We need momentum, 8 day break since travelling west, no excuses anymore.

Alright, I'm set up on the couch, fine Islay scotch at the ready. Let's get this thing started.

Someone call ahead, we're good to go.

I'm on the phone to them now. I'll keep you posted.

Absolutely should smash them.

Great to hear Hogan is playing,.

 

Excellent news.

Start time as scheduled, sorry mate.

But Roosy said to say hi.

  • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

    The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

  • CASEY: Brisbane

    The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

  • PREGAME: Hawthorn

    The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

    The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
