NON MFC: Round 01

[Cards13 9,117]

Ps really good crowd for the Giants too! Membership is really picking up. 

[At Least I Saw a Flag 5,250]

Such a boring match.

There is only one player on the ground with the surname Shaw. Why do the commentators always refer to him as Heath Shaw? (They don't use the other players Christian names.)

[KLV 1,765]

It’s Been good listening on the radio today, (solid day in the garden), can hear the players, commentary not trying to become stars of the show. Well on the abc anyway. 

[KLV 1,765]

Actually, someone mentioned Luke hodge is on ch 7, and C. Ling on abc radio, a demotion, surely

Good to see the Suns are aiming for another wooden spoon.

We are safe from that methinks.

GWS are good and Cats not too bad either. Very fast game.

Hard not to see 0-2 coming up.

T. Greene looking good

Old filth habits die hard. Been happening since the plague of Shaw’s started playing for Collingwood.

They could splice in crowd scenes from the chariot race in Ben Hur.

How about the crowds from Gladiator, complete with thumbs down from the spectators when they are not pleased with the umpires. Release the tigers (the real animals) from beneath the trapdoors underground! That'll teach them.

On a similar note, I've always wanted to know what Garyablettjunior's first name is.

Can not get over how bad the AFL website .  Just wow.  The Match Centre is so bad

And to think of all the extra traffic they will be getting to see that mess.

Agree.  It's not even consistent.  When I looked earlier today the  broadcast info for some matches was different in depending on which page you looked on (both had the revised start times).  Very hard to quickly get information. The site doesn't remember your chosen location or that you have turned off betting odds.

I'm sure I've heard Brayshaw call him little Gary Ablett. Makes him sound like a five year old. ?

[At Least I Saw a Flag 5,250]

There's only one Taylor on the ground. He always get identified as Harry Taylor. Why?

Green always get called Toby Green. Has been for years. At least there's now some excuse for it ... another Green (debutante) playing for GWS tonight.

Still a boring match.

I thought the mail on Green Prior to the draft was that he was good but a risk as his injury would keep him out of most of this season? Oh surprise he is ready round 1.

Are you thinking of Kemp?

Green’s always been ready-made.

I thought Clarkson being there was crap on the optics and didn’t need to be there given the current climate.

But  we’ll agree to disagree.

Okay now you win!
