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...

    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 ❤️💙

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
