Well, going off the side picked, we can expect indefinite to mean available by around Rd 4 or 5 - great news!

I think it does the Weid good to get pushed into the ruck a bit - gets him a bit angry, fired up and into the game physically.

Probably more likely than a Spargo, Kossie, Lockhart combo.

Yes. The idiocy of my comment probably wasn't apparent by virtue of its idiotic extent.

I just saw Weid's name to the left on the followers-line and assumed he was named as a mid.

Seems I forgot we don't have any other ruckmen, and also forgot to check who how ruck actually was.

Jumped to the conclusion that we were about to unleash our new two-metre mid sensation. 

Either A) I'm free MFCSS and have ignored most of our inconsequential injury reports.

Or  B) Am riddled with MFCSS and just accepted that Weid would start as mid to cover injuries.

I'm guessing a few of the named blokes don't actually play.

Look what that team sheet has done to the enthusiasm in here after last week's injury woes. Same will be going on in most Dees supporters houses.

Are you implying that the released team sheet is just MFC propaganda to lift supporters spirits only for a good ole bait and switch to happen on match day?

Cheers FND. But I have no idea if any of that means the match will be live-streamed for free or not. I'm currently overseas, but will probably be in your hood around the time of our first real fixture: where's the best place up north nowadays to watch the real stuff?

I am hopeful it doesn't pan out that way, but we will see

I don't believe there is any free streaming options.

It's LIVE on Fox Footy which is obviously a Pay TV service. If you have foxtel you can stream it via their app. As you are overseas you would not be able to view it due to their geo-location lock unless you are using a VPN.

If you pay for the Kayo app you will be able to watch it LIVE and later on demand. This is also a paid service but as an added bonus you get almost every other sport as well. I'm not sure whether they have a trial period which you could cancel before payment. As you're overseas you will have the same geo-location lock unless you have a VPN.

As you are overseas you can use the AFL's Watch AFL app which caters to the overseas market. You can watch LIVE or on demand. This is also a paid service but you can get weekly, monthly or yearly subscriptions which you can cancel at any time. If you are overseas you do not need a VPN. 

If you don't understand any of this then OK Boomer. :P

The Central is the AFL pub in town. Has a big screen and cold beers.

When are you thinking of coming up? It has been a bit tropical up here lately

Haha. I'm not a Boomer but I still have no idea. I was born in the brief border years between Gen X and the Millennials: most of us are clueless about both camps. We're also mostly all broke for getting caught in between: hence no spare Kayo cash. I had the Watch AFL subscription last year, but paying to get up at 5am in the morning for a couple hours of regular humiliation always felt rather harsh, regardless of my bdsmfc tendencies.

Still the Central? I'm seen many a glorious victory there, as well as a few horrible defeats dating back before the big-screens: including our 2000 prelim win over the Roos, and our crazy 2002 finals loss against the Crows.

Very good ! 

I am always surprised that some people still think you can get sports free.

It is best to start with the principle that if I cannot go to the event then it is going to cost.

If you don't want to pay / cannot then read reviews like here on Demonland.

Those are your options in the 21st century.

I've got Foxtel currently by really only use it for sport.

For those who use Kayo - what are your thoughts on the service?  Happy with it?  Not happy with it?  I'm thinking seriously about making the change.

I've mainly used Kayo on Desktop and Mobile and i've found it easy to use and good value at $25 a month. There is a great variety of sport and you can also watch the live Foxtel channels on the app as well.

You can usually get a free 1 month trial before having to pay anything.

Perhaps we should change the name of the injury list to the not fully match fit list if that is more palatable for you. 

Maybe you could call it "The NQR Squad".

I'm also keen to hear others thoughts on Kayo. I use foxtel and chromecast it but its pretty average quality a lot of the time. Wondering if Kayo might be better? I remember borring a mates and it worked a lot smoother potentially.

I have a Kayo subscription, streams through my Telstra tv box. I've no complaints with it.

It's excellent, I haven't had any issues. If you only use Foxtel for sport you should definitely make the switch.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
