    Grand Final Heroics

    I went to all of Geelong's finals in 1989. Ablett Sr was incredible. Not just in the GF but the entire final series. Wasn't enough to get the win though, but there's not much else he could have done. A 10th goal to tie the scores would have been nice I guess.

    Watching AFL matches on AFL live

    I've been using it all year from Canada. Works great for me. No issues.

    Watching overseas

    My only issue so far was using my iPhone to cast directly to my Chromecast. For some reason watching live this way causes it to buffer every 20 seconds or so. It made the games unwatchable. In frustration I went back to my PC and ran it in Chrome and cast the tab from there to my Chromecast...

    Autopsy Royal Commission into Alex Rance

    He actually took two contested one handed marks in the last quarter. One against Rance late in the quarter and an earlier one against another defender. I guess that's why there's some confusion in this thread.

    Geelong v Western Bulldogs - Rd 19, 2016 - Simonds, Fri @ 7:50

    Loved the contested work by the dogs. They just looked like they would win every contest. Didn't get value for their hard work inside 50. I thought Hunter was very damaging early and we needed to tighten up on him. Libba going off was obviously a big turning point. It let Danger off the leash...

    Is there anyone here who actually WANTS Hawthorn to win 4 in a row?

    Yeah. I just meant Big Footy mainly. I live in Canada now anyway so it's even easier to avoid. The only AFL fan I know here is a Demons supporter. I've got a good mate back home who's a Crows fan so I'd be happy for him if they win it.

    Is there anyone here who actually WANTS Hawthorn to win 4 in a row?

    I think I became a bit numb to it all after they won their third. Four would be history and worth seeing if that's the way it plays out. If Geelong don't win it, I'd almost be happy for the Crows to get there. Losing their coach the way they did was incredibly tough and a credit to the club...

    Geelong v Sydney - Rd 16, 2016

    I agree that Carlton, Collingwood and St Kilda have beaten us fair and square and all three of them played genuinely good games of footy against us. What's frustrating is watching them then dish up a rubbish effort and poor intensity soon afterwards, sometimes the very next week. Living in...

    Geelong v Sydney - Rd 16, 2016

    Absolutely. I was more lamenting that we've had three of them already. Frustrating to watch.

    Geelong v Sydney - Rd 16, 2016

    Well done to Swans. They really wrestled the momentum away from us when we briefly got on top and then went on with it. No shame in losing to good sides like that, even at our home ground. Just highlights how costly those 3 losses to the lower place teams will be come the finals. 1 or 2 wins...

    Watch AFL from overseas

    Yeah, I remember that half-time time warp issue. Used to drive me crazy since I had the iPad hooked up to the TV via a HDMI cable. I'd usually just go sit in front of the PC to watch the second half, which was never as good, since watching in the browser only lets you watch a small sized video...

    Players still liked by their former club

    Was happy to see Barnsey get a medal in 2000 after years of good service at the Cats and back to back losses in 94/95. Still enjoy watching him take that mark in the defensive goal square in the 94 prelim with the scores tied....and then immediately playing on under pressure. Still get...

    Sandy Roberts call is at the start of these highlights.

    Second Elimination Final - Geelong vs Fremantle

    Well done Freo. Cats just couldn't match it with them. Pav was seriously awesome. Seemed to dig deep and nail goals every time Geelong gained any momentum. I'll be cheering for them the rest of the finals series. Hope they show this form in Adelaide next week.

    Tom Lonergan the real feel good story

    Yep. Almost don't notice him then you realise that Cloke has gone from Norm Smith medallist to mia. Super happy for him.

    Tom Hawkins is announcing himself

    If he'd done nothing else, I would have loved him for his last quarter goal in the 09 GF. But his second half today was just phenomenal.

    GF delayed 12 hours in Canada

    heh...everyone at work was wearing Bomber gear and Jets gear tonight. So I looked a bit odd wearing my Geelong gear.

    Where can I watch the GF around the world?

    In Canada it's now streaming live on TSN.ca and starts a few hours early with some lead up shows. Even better though, they'll now join the game live on TSN once the CFL finishes (around half time). More info here...

    Where can I watch the GF around the world?

    TSN have told the AFL they won't be honouring their contract and showing it live. Will shown on a 12 hour delay instead.

    GF delayed 12 hours in Canada

    It appears to be true nonetheless. I've got TSN on cable and the channel guide shows it being shown 12 hours late. I emailed the guys at AFANA (http://www.afana.com) as I know they've spoken to the AFL before about things like this. They confirmed that the AFL have spoken to TSN and asked them...

    GF delayed 12 hours in Canada

    Yep. Been doing that all year. Would be nice for just this one game this year to be able to sit in front of the big screen TV on Friday night and watch it live with a few beers. Even more so with the Cats in it. Get a bit tired of grainy streams after a while. But I am grateful for that much...

    GF delayed 12 hours in Canada

    Seriously gutted to see the schedule over here. Unless I've missed one, TSN haven't shown any live finals this year. And despite being contractually obligated to show the GF live, they're saying "sorry we can't fit it in". Poor form.

    Geelong V Hawthorn

    Pods' sixth also against him. Not to mention a goal assist for his lovely tap to Pods in the goal square. Can't believe you don't actually watch the games given the crap you post.

    Geelong V Hawthorn

    Vardy beat him one on one in a marking contest and goaled in the first. Didn't you watch the game???

    Afl & espn

    Same with TSN in Canada. They've shown each Friday night final but not the other. Lucky for me the Cats have been in the Friday games.

    Is Saints vs Geelong the biggest home and away game of all time?

    I remember the Essendon vs Collingwood match in 1990 being pretty big. Similar situation from memory (not undefeated of course) but the two teams looking most likely to play off in the GF, and of course they eventually did. Remember it was televised live too.

    Good Call, Bad Call

    Good call. Geelong need a loss or two before the finals to get fired up and playing more ruthless footy.
