Yeah, pretty much. Great to see the Bombers really take it to the Pies ... does that make us the first team to even really challenge them this season? Carlton did get about as close, but honestly I've kind of forgotten that game. Wish we could've nudged in front when we were just a point down! But thrilling footy, besides that atrocious first quarter.

Can almost draw parallels between Richmond's match against Carringbush a week earlier. Carringbush easily controlled the first and last, but Richmond/Essendon came back very strongly at times in both the second and third quarters..

Fremantle and Footscray was arguably the match of the day though, and it didn't disappoint, critical result. Freo are top 4 contenders for sure.

What a great round of football. I was camping in the forest all weekend but we had a radio. Happy GC beat Port, over the moon we won so well today against Hawthorn. Boyd had 45 touches.

this headline doesn't help my football writing a great deal:

Jesus shit, hope you catch the guy who did that.

(The coffee ad cracks me up, gotta say.)

cobl04 · 04-27-2011, 03:12 AM

He's kind of my boss...

(Yeah it's a free crappy paper and is full of shit like that)

Axver · 04-27-2011, 03:44 AM

Oh my god a REAL cup of COFFEE! As opposed to ...?

(It's all mud to me anyway.)

cobl04 · 04-27-2011, 04:00 AM

It's actually a drive-thru coffee place too...

A front page story once was an old lady saying her water tasted like rotten eggs. Roland Rocchiccioli is a columnist.

I don't have much "drive" but I reckon if I worked with the bloke for two weeks I could overtake the paper and make it better.

Axver · 04-27-2011, 04:05 AM

Wow, that makes the Moreland Leader look like world class news. Our latest front page was about the first baby born at John Fawker Hospital in twenty years.

bono_212 · 04-27-2011, 04:42 AM

So...I really did not pick the team to beat this season. Rest assured, I'm still following, but mustering up much vigor has proved difficult.

cobl04 · 04-27-2011, 04:53 AM

They're not last at least!

Do you watch the Marngrook footy show each week Bonnie? Cool that it focuses on aboriginal stories & players, but I don't mind it nearly as entertaining as The Footy Show.

The Sad Punk · 04-27-2011, 07:19 AM

Familiar with it, never really sat down and watched it though. Is it only on pay TV? Don't have Austar at the moment.

West Coast vs Melbourne
Sydney vs Carlton
Roos vs Port
Richmond vs Brissy
Adelaide vs Saints
Essendon vs Suns
Collingfuck vs Dogs

cobl04 · 04-27-2011, 07:23 AM

Nah it's on ABC 22! After being on 31 for years.

bono_man2002 · 04-28-2011, 12:35 AM

The only thing I don't like about the AFL Rights is Channel 7, but wait...if Friday night is live on foxtel, who gives a fuck!

The Sad Punk · 04-28-2011, 02:21 AM

Cheers for that Danny, will check it out from now on.

Guess I'm gonna have to get pay TV otherwise, though.

Also, get yo tips in soon, guys. We're playing tonight! We doin' this!

cobl04 · 04-28-2011, 02:26 AM

Lecras is back too!!

I'm very upset 10 has lost the rights. They're much better than 7.

Can anyone tell me, I see foxtel are showing all nine games live from next year but are 7 showing their four live?

Axver · 04-28-2011, 02:28 AM

Full rights details here: AFL TV Deal: Foxtel, Channel 7, Telstra Mobiles, Tablets & T-Box

I've basically resolved to cave in to Foxtel prior to the Rugby World Cup anyway.

Going out right now, will post picks in about an hour.

cobl04 · 04-28-2011, 02:33 AM

If I'm understanding that correctly, that means only Friday & Saturday night and Sunday games are gonna be shown live on fta, which is disappointing.

I'm gonna try and push for foxtel, but the rents will say no.

All foxtel games will have no ads!!!!

And Friday night games start at 750!!! AND SATURDAY GAMES AT 145!!!!!!!!! 90 minute delay!

bullshit!

A real shame, as I love watching Sat afternoon games. What the fuck else am I gonna do on a Saturday afternoon?

Axver · 04-28-2011, 03:31 AM

Er, isn't this an improvement on how much is live on FTA now?

The 90 minutes on Saturday thing is bullshit though.
