My sports bar in Hua Hin is proving a bust!

Is that watch afl app any good ? $20 for a week sub. Don't mind the fee but is it any good?

Worked a treat for me last week and will be using it again today. 

Not a bad view for the match either. 32 degrees to boot. AF2A5299-1426-4265-BB1C-CD5A71433C51.jpeg

    Cats will do some shonky sh$% with FF playing up the ground handing off to Smith and down ASAP to Jeremy.Will need to be ready.

    So much riding on our backline vs their forward line and whether the conditions effect their forward line marking power

    If their twin towers start to influence we might have to use Max in the backline

    And if that happens our forward line will be dependant on our 4 smalls having a decent influence (along with Brown & Fritsch contributing)

    Regardless, we'll need to lower the eyes with our inside 50 entries.  Our midfielders hitting the scoreboard would be a big plus

    Their average score against is 69 points but they've got a couple out with Stewart being a big out


    Chris Scott having conniptions MAX is back.

    Always tough at Kardinia with dubious umps and crazy fans but here's hoping the cats players didn't have their afternoon nap time.

    Dees by 22.

    Scott just on Fox saying he isn't going to send someone to clarry or petracca as it is like conceding the Geelong mids Selwood and danger are not as good and he didn't think that's the case. Same with playing a negating forward on lever or May. He might be foxing but he is dead wrong on his assessment of the mids

    I've tried a few times with no luck both Foxtel go and kayo with VPN whilst OS . Very limited success and I'm in the tech industry. I'd bite the bullet and buy the game on watch AFL 


    Geelong ground staff not the most hospitable. 😑

    Few sideglances probably going around the playing group when this weeks theme was presented I reckon...

    Pride cometh before the fall


    Just saw Greg Stafford interviewed and he speaks really well. talked about the teams approach to the game and while it was nothing very notable he spoke with a smile on his face nd did not scratch his left leg once.

    Game will be won or lost in the contested ball

    We pressure them hard,  slow their movement and get our share of clearances we win. They pressure us harder and get easy contested ball out, we lose...

    Odd thing. A couple of Thai girls just joined me.  I think they want to get in a shout …….. maybe they’re Dees supporters

    Still love this quote from last year. 
     

    Rd 23. See how we can win from being 40pts behind. 
    Preliminary Final. See how much we can beat them by when we’re fair dinkum. 
    Go Dees ❤️💙

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
