Like many of you I pretty much swore off football after Round 23. To be honest still not really over it.

Now I find myself quietly confident in our side but expectations are still being tempered. I don’t want to go through last year again so just trying to keep those emotions in check while looking forward to footy again. It’s a strange position to be in but that’s just the way it is

We all got cheated last year Layzie.

In previous seasons I have been excited by our pre season form because we have been that bad.

This year I couldn't care less. I just want the real stuff to start.

I know it doesn't mean anything come the real stuff but even the occasional attendee to training sessions in the past 15 years should be able to tell you there is a serious difference, and the current squad is miles beyond anything seen before. "You play as you train"  is a reasonable reason to be excited this year...... I knowledge I'm a glass half-full guy.

I will be somewhere around Khon Kaen for round one. Have already sent a bunch of emails to whatever sports bars i could find on Google but none have replied to my request for info on the broadcast. Might be stuck with radio as i wont pay the $19 or whatever it is just for one match, especially as the net is so bad it wont stream continuously most of the time.

Replay will have to do i guess.

I would think the only way you could watch it would be online or at a pub that has the Watch AFL pass (which is unlikely around Khon Kaen). Unfortunately for you, our round 1 game won't be on Australia Plus.

The wash-up of 2017 hit all of us a cruel blow, but surely it's now time to embrace the very real excitement that 2018 holds.  Iam, and I'm loving it. Bring it on!
