Would have happened already but a covid scare in Brisbane delayed it.
I think so? After last year I think the league liked the idea of being able to dole out primtetime slots to who they wanted and have a bit more flexibility over the schedule.
Ridiculous they don't do this all the time. So what it *s some people who want to plan 3 months ahead, what about how much better it makes it for everyone else ?
Yeah, and provided they stay on the same weekend it's pretty easy to plan around (bar a game getting scheduled for 6pm on a Sunday).
Any chance you are a telstra customer who had access to telstra live pass? They get kayo for $5 a month to compensate for live pass's end. I have foxtel so I don't need kayo but $25 is pretty good anyways, especially considering the masters are on this week, footy seasons in full swing and the NBA up and running. Free to air is yucky, foxtel really should reduce prices.
No I'm a tightarse, I have a cheap Amaysim plan that works for me. I don't have a lot of time or desire to watch other sports, so I really would just be paying $25 a month to watch MFC and maybe a few other random games of footy.
Fair, definitely not worth then. I watch a lot of American sports and the cricket in the summer so it's pretty good value for me.
Whoohoo! Where did this info come from?
It's in the Herald Sun
Ah. Explains why I wouldn’t have seen it
I saw it on the supercoach board, I don't read that shitty propaganda, makes me sick
I read it when it’s free in cafes - read is basically look at the pictures, read terrible footy articles and read the dreadful BOGs for each team for the weekends, which are clearly made up by morons or possibly champion data
Who/where they playing?
Sandringham, dunno where
That was harrowing...Not sure where to put this... and apologies if it's already been posted somewhere else and I've missed it. I thought there was a thread for ex-Dees players somewhere, but only can only the "recent delistings" one, which seems primarily to feature where ex-Dees players are still playing football.
In my memory Rod Owen had played more than one season with us, but anyway:
Written off as a party animal and addict, AFL star Rod Owen was hiding dark secrets
Rod Owen was a St Kilda star at 16, but within a year he was an alcoholic and drug addict. Many blamed his spiral on injuries and partying, but his addictions masked childhood traumas he'll never forget.www.abc.net.au
Sad story of a great talent that was only seen in very brief flashes due to all of his understandable problems. Hope he has found some peace now and goes from strength to strength.
It's really weird how good Melbourne comes off in that story in comparison to St Kilda, because: a) We've had our own player problems from that era, though mostly gambling related? and, b) We really didn't perform much better than the Saints.
He’s still got an uphill road ahead. Especially since he has to eschew painkillers and is battling chronic pain
