Excellent, can't wait to watch this tonight. The build up to round 1 has been fantastic, can't wait for tomorrow night.

They still don't like the pressure/hard ball just like last year against the Tigers, against us in the first game, the GF. Win the post clearance contested possession and keep their small forwards accountable and we win I think.

100-7 🤣

I wouldn't be surprised if they come out with a point to prove but we have a real chance to destroy them psychologically and I hope we take it

Loving your series of pods mate I've listened to almost all of them so far 👍

Yep Robbie in the goalsquare I think Yeats and Eishold missed sitters too and maybe one or two others. Plus the free against Grinter that led to the 15m penalty for Stynes. We were out on our feet though, Carlton would have obliterated us the following week in 33 degree weather and Robbie would've missed the game. Might have held us in better stead for 88 but maybe not, who knows?

Well there is a group of Christian nutters at wce (look at the doco on the 2020 season with their pre-game prayer groups etc) so it is a possibility

It's not just about how sick he will get but whatever.

His mother in law is apparently a renowned anti vaxxer, I doubt it's got anything to do with religious beliefs of that nature

For those with AFL Memberships there was an email earlier this week saying that the new ticketing system for AFL members where you sign in to the AFL app and scan the barcode at the gates to get in without a reserved seat will NOT be available for round 1 as they aren't sure the system is ready yet. Any AFL members attending round 1 MUST have a reserved seat and they gave us a barcode in the email to upgrade to a reserved seat for free (usually $9). You will be able to scan in to the AFL members area with the barcode on your phone from round 2 onwards. Not sure what this means for club members or MCC members though.

I doubt it would have anything to do with Jackson. Melbourne has shown they can wheel and deal with picks at the trade table, they probably backed themselves to bundle picks, trade up etc to get a top 10 pick for him.

No wonder its taken so long! If it doesn't get signed off before the election forget about an announcement this year I'd say. And hopefully no change of government which could reset the whole thing.

In the post GF delirium I kind of lost track with anything other than the flag celebrations. I assume Bont isn't playing next week after being rubbed out for his head high hit on Clarry in the GF?

Because their ticketing system is a joke and isn't ready yet!

To be honest the copies I managed to download (apparently in 1080p) are better than the Kayo, DVD or Bluray versions. And I was able to get every game for the season in this quality (not just the GF).

And Geelong is amongst a few marginal electorates of swinging voters (and regional), hence the multimillion dollar upgrades.

Nah I'm lucky I have great in-laws, and if she has decided to jump on the Demons (mainly because of her grandkids 😉) she can't be too bad 🤣

Maggot!

I signed up my mother in law today as an armchair member (first time). She's on the Demons bandwagon now!

I've had a couple of Dogs supporters tell me they couldn't get their mids (Bont and Macrae in particular) back on the ground during that frenzy. I kindly tell them we gave them plenty of opportunities as they could have made changes after any of the goals we slammed through. Not to mention they had Bont, Treloar and Libba in the middle during our second Minute of Madness just before 3/4 time.

Fatality!

You can buy a bluray copy of the GF. Kayos replays are terrible quality, they must downgrade the frame rate when they out the replays up, it's actually pathetic. Otherwise there are great quality versions available on specific unauthorised websites.

Brilliant news for them, King and Rowell are two players you can build around.

This was brilliant I had tears streaming down my face at the end - what is wrong with me 🤣🤣 By the way does anyone still feel sick watching the second/early 3rd quarter? Seeing those highlights was giving me anxiety even knowing what was coming - what is wrong with me 🤣🤣

That's true, will be interesting to see what is actually announced. I think we will have everything under one roof, sharing facilities is the issue but if it doesn't impact our use of those facilities I don't see the problem, it could even work to our advantage sharing IP with others across the codes.
