It’s only for the 1st quarter and the audio issue doesn’t occur with Youtube replays of the GF (which I watch far too many times to my family’s bewilderment). The 3rd and 4th quarters are fine (didn’t check the 2nd quarter haha). Is there a trick to get to the other calls ? If i choose aw i still get 7

(Mind you I didn’t select it from the menu and selected the audio via the Blu-ray player’s remote.) Do you have the umpire mic echo issue on yours?

December 29, 20213 yr Finally got my stuff today, I thought it would be and I'd just arrived home to see it being thrown over the front gate.
December 29, 20213 yr Has anyone got the DVD Victory Pack. Is the picture good if you use your Bluray player to upscale the DVD picture? Cheers
December 29, 20213 yr It doesn't matter whether you use the Blu-ray player or the TV to do upscaling - there's still only a 720x576i picture to work with. You can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear through upscaling. Far better to just watch the replays through afl.com.au (or through the AFL app if you need to AirPlay/Chromecast to the big screen) which are 1. free and 2. 1280x720p... (As an aside, the Herald Sun shop finally got my mug to me 😄) Edited December 29, 20213 yr by Range Rover to the snow
December 29, 20213 yr I thought the victory pack would include the bluray? Lucky I got both! The full season pack inludes the GF in both DVD and Blu-ray I believe
December 30, 20213 yr So it appears to be the consensus that it's no use buying the Victory Pack with only DVD quality. Probably wait until next year or after when the pack is discounted right down. I see the Tigers 2020 Victory Pack now sells for about $25 and their 2017 pack for about $5! I have the game(s) on my Foxtel IQ so have HD available at present

Cheers Picture is ok playing the DVD in a blu-ray player, but there is quite a noticeable difference in picture quality when watching the GF Blu-ray Disc.

Sorry I am a bit confused. Does the Victory Pack have the GF in Bluray and the other two games and Season Highlights in DVD or are all 4 discs in the Victory Pack all DVD? Cheers

I might've missed it but thought their sponsorship was due to expire at the end of 2021. Might just be that they've re-signed but not announced it yet?

Not because we are not worthy but because the Jag group have lost considerable market share over the last two years. There sales have tanked substantially and I wondered if cost cuts might be the end of the MFC sponsorship. Obviously not. They are changing to all electric so perhaps they see us as a good vehicle to show off their new electric cars. Edited January 6, 20223 yr by old dee

I've done the same as you, I was rather annoyed when I got the Victory Pack and when I played the GF the lines on the ground were shimmering and distorted. I got 4 packs that cost me over $600n and not only is the picture poor, the umpires voices are muffled like they are in a tunnel. I've got the Blue Ray copies but haven't seen them yet because they were delivered to my son.
January 12, 20223 yr As iterated elsewhere, I purchased the whole season package from Sanity which comprises EVERY ONE of our games throughout the 2021 season. The finals are in BLU RAY Format and at $ 144.95 to me it is the "Investment of a lifetime" Also with it is a retrospective "Highlights" package as well! I'm Happy!😁

I went and bought a blu ray player and it wasnt much better till I upped the resolution to 1080 (isnt that a poison?) My local Sanity has 50% off everything but the chance of it having AFL is very remote.

It's just the GF isnt it? I've got the GF bluray and the victory pack but won't shell out for the season pack if the quality isn't that great. I found copies online of every game in 1080p including multiple commentary tracks for the QF and didn't have to pay a cent. It's only just over 200GB in total too so you could fit it on 4 or 5 Blu-ray discs (50gb each I think). Surely the AFL/distributors can give us some better quality asking us to pay in excess of $100.

Can you tell me where you found it, I'd like to get it as a back up.
