forgive a stupid question but is that only for connections outside Australia?

Yes.

There's probably a way around that, but i don't see that it would be worth it, as I believe it's the same as the AFL's local streaming service.

The international service is $179 per year if you do it through the MFC, or €99 (in Europe) directly through the site.

NAB matches are free, but once the season proper starts, there's only access if you have an account.

Does anyone know if live stream (with or without app) is available for a 'smart TV'? Cheers

Perhaps I should re-phrase that: Does the AFL live stream app work on a 'smart TV' or only on mobile devices?

no - it runs through their AFL Live app.

Thnx. I will get my android tablet hooked into the 'smart tv' and see how that goes and/or find software that can connect the two. Bit difficult to watch a whole game on a tablet/phone.

Should be able to "throw" it to your TV from your android.

thanks mate

Afl are trialling a shot clock count down when someone takes a shot and worst of all the umpires will be broadcast over the PA when explaining free kicks.

Good lord! Should we just call it the NFL now?

According to the AFL, "the big thing will be whether the crowd has any interest. You would expect them to have some interest, especially if time is running out."

This is just a really exciting development - I'm one of those supporters who doesn't care whether the kick registers a goal or a behind, so this will make the whole shot-on-goal experience interesting again..

Thanks AFL.

Not named: Trengove, Brayshaw, Stretch, Kent, Vince, Petracca, Riley, O-Mac, AN-B, Howe, Hunt, White, Spencer, Harmes, Terlich, King, Fitzpatrick

Whats going on with Fitzpatrick, out of favour?

Interestingly, Dean Kent completed the full session this morning but has not been selected in the squad.

Good to see VanDemon named after his head knock. He was sporting a cracking black eye at training but participated in all drills.

Yeah, much like the Bombers, nowhere near our best side if everyone was available.

Settled is a good word to use. No injuries from last week means we only need to bring in Pedersen as the third forward which is terrific.

And while I would have loved to have seen Brayshaw being given a run I'm just as happy not to - it shows we don't need to push them too hard. A month of terrific footy at Casey will hold him in good stead going forward.

Kent, Vince and Howe are the only one's missing that I would say are First 22.

does casey have a vfl practice match this weekend?

What's going on with Kent?? Has he signed with someone else? Urinated on a bar? Started using a machete? Taken a banned substance? I have to stop investing emotionally in these players, gets me every time!

Injured heel.

Same squad as last week with Stretch and Fitzy dropping out. Be interesting to see who the 3 are who are left out this week.

I wonder if they'll play Pedo as he might be in for Dawes for rd 1, or if they'll throw Frost around and hope he can fill in for that week??

Anyway I hope they give Dawes a week off or play him in the Casey pracy match (although that might not be until the week later???), and give the Rd 1 fwd a go.

Then I'd guess the other 2 outs will come from Mitchie, McKenzie, Newton, Vandenberg, Bail, Viney, Toump, Corss or M Jones. I love that there's no obvious outs, good competition for the supporting mids (outside the locks in Nate Jones and Tyson).

Great! Thanks AzzKika!

I have not tried it with the afl app, but it works on my smart TV when viewing videos on facebook or youtube.

Injured heel.

Oh ok fair enough

Misson said he's a chance this week, don't know if that means via VFL or vs Essendon

He's not named in the squad v Essendon, so I'm guessing he meant Casey.

Misso said they ideally want 2 1/2 games into most players up for round 1 selection. so I guess the guys who were subbed the last 2 weeks will play full games and the others mgiht be likely to be rested or play a half. I reckon Pedo and Dawes might get a half each

This should be fun, good v evil.

Surely the Drug Lords (evil) don't have a chance, but then again we are Melbourne.

Sorry forgot to put this in training thread, spoke to Kent, his heel was feeling fine, have to see how it is after training, then maybe a run with Casey if it is ok, same as what Misson said, he was limping on Sunday at Family Day so has made a quick recovery, did nearly whole sessiion
