Collingwood on the other hand look the real deal.

Favourite team to watch by far

 

[Hayes4PM]

Hate to say it but... could be #flagpies for real.

 

[dudeintheswamp]

Geez ports defence is constantly under the pump

 

[dudeintheswamp]

Eight unanswered goals bloody hell

 

[gringo2011]

Hinkley needs to get on Seek quickly and start looking for something to do next year.

 

[Dard Ball Get]

27 free kicks with 7 minutes left to go in the second q

 

[dudeintheswamp]

maybe an umpire ? looks like they're giving them to anyone

 

[Hayes4PM]

These ****in Daicos' running around

 

[jwikked]

10 different goal scorers for 11 goals. Collingwood are super impressive. Love the style of footy they play.

 

[Geary Is GOAT]

Absolute slaughter at the G.

Collingwood look real, Daicos brothers look terrifying.

being allowed by Port to play the game he's playing is rather damning on the coach. Not to mention Scott frickin Lycett!

[Pakenhamsaint]

Port Adelaide are getting smashed everywhere

 

[Geary Is GOAT]

Charlie Dixon actually

Has been for years. Kochie's influence at 7 has seen him overrated in the media since he joined Port.

He has the odd game where he looks like Hawkins and then turns back into shit the next week.

 

[StFly]

He can be goal umpire, just call everything a goal regardless where it lands and he'll be getting bonus every year. Easy job.

 

[Dard Ball Get]

Charlie Dixon actually

Yeah, nah

 

[Geary Is GOAT]

He has the odd game where he looks like Hawkins and then turns back into s**t the next week.

His best year was 2021 and he went goalless 5 times.

Elite key forwards just don't do that. You need someone more consistent if you really want to compete.

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

You have to tag Nick Daicos. Tag him so much you have to ride him

 

[Minga]

Pretty handy that when we face Collingwood in round 5, it’ll be in Adelaide on a Sunday arvo.

MCG is well and truly their fortress.

 

[Ephemeral Hope]

Last two seasons, I spent $100 on GA home game membership each season, which was a deal the club isn’t running anymore. Went to 90% of home games, caught public transport in, either treated myself to a pie or brought a sandwich, avoided the beers, brought a water bottle. Across 2 seasons worth of games, I probably spent $250-$300 total by choosing to be frugal, and also having some student concessions for PTV which was fortunate. That’s for transport, food/drink, membership, and about 15-20 games I guess.

Alternatively, I have spent far more on maintaining my MCC membership in that time, and only been to a few saints games there, AND it costs $50 to bring a guest. Feels like a scam to keep that going (proportionate to my income), but I trust in due time it’ll be worth it.

Kayo One costs $25 a month, and if you run it during the footy season alone that’s priced OKAY.

7AFL is free, replays on AFL website after all matches are free. Pirating is free if you’re so inclined. Going to the pub and watching fox footy there is free / the price of a pot. Radio is free.

Totally believe that you can go to the footy on the cheap, say $18 GA (IIRC), $4.50 pie, $4.50 public transport (after 6pm IIRC) = $27 for the night ain’t bad.

IMO, public transport should be significantly cheaper if not free, and GA footy tickets should be capped at $10, and pies capped at $2.50, so anyone no matter who you are, can have the basic Australian footy experience (which is still world class) for a great reliable price. But hey, that’s just my imagined utopia, it’s all a business at the end of the day isn’t it, so there will always be every incentive to spend more and more, and Aussie’s are big spenders.

And the other thing is that it’s relative, right now spending a lot of money on the footy to me is ludicrous, but it’s possible down the track I will be fortunate enough not to batt an eyelid at paying my KAYO subscription, or buying a beer or two at the stadium, or getting a nicer st kilda annual membership perhaps with reserve seats, or buying a $70 scarf etc etc. Would be an immense privilege.

For now I’m just stoked I get nice MCC seats for our 150th next week!

In a similar boat here. MCC membership gets the priority even though there’s only 1 or 2 saints matches there a year. Wish there was a better bundle with the saints/MCC combo. Ours is pitiful where the other clubs have some actually enticing deals

I miss my concession myki. Didn’t realise how much it adds up taking the train full price. I understand why my mates jump the gates.

 

[dudeintheswamp]

Yeah, nah

Didn't mean Charlie was shit, just that he'd been rucking against Cameron
