    AFL Grand Final kick-off time & watching from overseas

    Good to know that it's a good service and saw that Road to the Finals package but it says it doesn't include the Grand Final??? Thanks for the time confirmation too.

    AFL Grand Final kick-off time & watching from overseas

    Apologies everyone, should've done a bit more research before jumping straight in here but my subsequent research may help others. Just found http://afltv.afl.com.au/, just waiting to hear back if they'll offer once off subscription for the Grand Final.

    AFL Grand Final kick-off time & watching from overseas

    Hi everyone, curious to know what time the kick-off is for the Grand Final, is it 2:30pm or later? I'll be on my honeymoon and want to try and watch it. Second to that, does anyone know if the AFL app will work overseas? I've tried using the Foxtel App before but didn't work when overseas...

    GWS pick No.1 on the table

    Having said (and now read a couple of pages back) I also think Minson could be a possibility. Unfortunately, to get players the likes of Boyd you sometimes have to offer overs. I'm prepared to roll the dice and hope it's not a crap shoot.

    GWS pick No.1 on the table

    I think that's being myopic. Yes Griffen is a gun but how prominent do you think he'll be when we're next challenging for a flag, which in the very least would be three years away, likely four to five. He has a tremendous amount of capital...now. Let's use that capital in an area we...

    Pick 1, on the table. Who does your club put up to get it??

    As a Doggie's supporter, couldn't have said it better myself. If it were to happen, I wouldn't be surprised if we had to give Griffen and a second rounder, they may even want Griffen and pick 3/4 (wherever we finish). If they went for the later, I'd be asking for their second round pick too so...

    Review Autopsy/Vent thread vs Fremantle

    Although I agree with the majority on here that it was good we were able to beat Fremantle after quarter time, I want to see a result like this against West Coast in Round 18 or Sydney in Round 19. We have to remember that the first half of last year we were able to keep it close to a few sides...

    Opinion Gathering Storm

    Would be good if we could get his brother from Adelaide, would take the "revenge" theme a bit further after 97/98 :)

    Former player Jarrad Grant

    Re: Jarrod Grant not sure if he acknowledged him or not, but he shepperded a Sun player to allow Higgins (I think it was) to score a goal. I'm reasonably happy with the work he's doing off the ball.

    Picken's a good tagger, but Ablett is, well....Ablett :)

    Preview Demons v Sydney- Official Preview - Including Teams

    Hi everyone, curious to know why Couch isn't getting a game for you guys? From the limited reading I've done on him, he's been doing well at Casey (I could be mistaken). Also, wasn't he promoted off the rookie list a while ago? If so, wouldn't that normally mean he'd get a game? Good luck...

    Review Round 8. Bulldogs vs. Suns.

    Hi everyone, good luck for this weekend. I have a quick question, not so much related to this weekend's game but more for my SuperCoach team :) i.e., where's Aaron Hall at? Why isn't he getting a game and is he likely to get called up?

    The McCartney strategy ... what comes next?

    Couldn't agree more. We have a young side who need a lot of match practice to get better with their disposals and thinking under pressure. In a couple of years the likes of Addison, Cordy, Dahlhaus, Jones, Libba, Markovic, Roughead, Wallis will all be around that 50-100 games and benefit...

    The McCartney strategy ... what comes next?

    I'm one fan who hopes we do finish down the bottom. With an awesome draft and with potentially multiple high draft picks, I don't want to finish too high. I'm hoping we can do a West Coast of a couple of years ago, a year, maybe two down in the bottom 8, then back in to the 8

    The McCartney strategy ... what comes next?

    Aside from looking at drafting and building a team over the next few years and aside from the contested possession, I think there's two things he'd be looking at improving. One is defence, the other is disposal efficiency. I think the three stats they say will win you the game 98% of the...

    How many trades left?

    16 after this week, will use one trade next week to bring in Ablett, already set up for the byes, so my next trade (baring injury) will be Round 12

    Round 4 Trades

    Just on Twitter @Fremantle_FC LATE CHANGE: Fyfe won't play tonight - will be replaced by Anthony. Sub will be debutant Neale http://yfrog.com/oejzhwqj #aflsaintsFREO

    Round 4 Trades

    Probably Mcintosh. His price is going to go up and he's got a fairly good draw in GCS, West Coast, Buldogs, Port, Brisbane. Aside from West Coast, you'd think he'd do well in the rucks as well as if he moves forward

    Round 4 Trades

    As good an option as Waite is, you risk suspension and injury with him I have both Martin and Fyfe, but at the moment, I'm thinkin of holding firm on both. Fyfe to me is the bigger concern due to his shoulder potentially continuously popping out but I look at both and think will they...

    Round 4 Trades

    I'm undecided too, but his break even means nothing if you think he could be a top 10 forward come years end.

    2012 injuries and suspensions

    Thing that worries me about Birchall and Fyfe (of which I have both) is that if they do play, what's the likelihood they'll wear the green vest? I've already had to put Lake on the pine and Smedts is my only other defensive cover and he's unlikely to play. I haven't used a trade yet, but...

    Mick Malthouse shoots Nathan Buckley between the eyes

    Say what you will about his coaching style, but I've got a lot of respect for the way Buckley's handled this drama. Perhaps Mick shouldn't have said some things, but as Buckley pointed out, he's in the media now, he's paid to give an opinion. I think most of the criticism for all of this...

    Slaps and Sledges

    Also agree with the slap to Picken, did his job very well. Obvious slaps to Dalhaus and Smith. Sledge to Boyd, I would honestly rather he got 10 possessions with 80% disposal efficiency, than the 38 he got today. I know he's the captain but if he's butchering the ball and is our leading...

    Preview R1 GWS GIANTS vs Sydney Swans - AFL Debut - Sydney Derby I

    Sorry to intrude, but any reason why he was only named as an emergency and also why Miles hasn't been named? I was expecting one of them to be named. Good luck, you're sure to be smashed a few times this year, but it's all a journey and if you stick with them, i'm sure they'll repay you in no...

    Rocket, Cameron/Malthouse, Smorgon

    He's not quite a billionaire, but he is a millionaire many times over. I agree with other comments that he should stop the "put up or shut up" mantra and dig in to help a little, but he shouldn't have to do it all (he's not Dick Pratt). The thing that people often forget to look at with...

    We can't hear you, Eddie!

    I think several people on here have correctly identified why Eddie needs to say something and that's, what's good for the goose is good for the gander. Eddie (rightly) stood up and gave a serve to the Saints supporter recently, yet needs to publicly do the same against Pies supporters who spew...

    Has Eade been there too long?

    Re: What time will Eade be given his marching orders? Although I can understand both sides of the argument i.e., don't sack Eade, it's the players fault/sack Eade, he hasn't done much, I'd have to side with the first argument. If you get rid of Eade, the players have to prove themselves to...

    Guess who is officially the most successful team since the AFL started?

    Well said. A premiership, is a premiership, is a premiership. if Gold Coast or GWS win 10 flags between them from 2013 to 2022 due to concessions, they're still premierships. To CatmanForever, I can't see how you can go on about compromised drafts and those flags not counting, when a large...

    Time to Consider a Rebuild?

    It's easy to say a goal or two either way and we would be 4 and 2, but to me this just shows that we can't get it done when it matters. Good teams, premiership teams, don't lose those games or seldom do and it's not as if those close games were against Geelong or Collingwood, they were against...
