* see my post in "the Swans spread their wings thread..

 

[bedford]

Don't forget, the last 8 minutes are all ours ! not to be missed

 

[S120]

If the last 8 minutes is anything like the first 8 minutes...holy shit, that was incredible.

 

[S120]

...is anyone watching this captains/premiership cup thing? That was pretty damn funny watching live.

Someone please upload!

I have not the technological nous to do it, but you are in for a treat when Grim gets round to it. Almost exclusively footage and audio (from the coaches) that you've never seen or heard before.

What's the name of the show?

 

[S120]

AFL Season Launch. It was a 30 minute show and the montage was in the very first 10 minutes. Jarrad McVeigh gave a very good speech in the next 5.

 

[grimlock]

Cheers will keep an eye out for it. Stay tuned

 

[S120]

They really put some effort in with the production for this show too. The GF montage involved a recently retired player giving a pretty chilling and moving soliloquy about striving for a premiership.

And as I said, the final thing was a pretty funny piece involving all the captains and the premiership cup.

Good show all in all.

A good mate of mine produced the show. It was compacted into 30 minutes, but at least Fox gave us least half of that time to us.

Send him my compliments, some of the best football production I've seen on TV in quite a while.

 

[bedford]

I will try and get the whole show of him, but i think Vlad will own it, having said that ,Vlad was brilliant

 

[RW]

The transcripts of the speeches are up on the AFL website if anyone without Fox Footy is curious... Macca's words were perfect

 

[grimlock]

Wow I just watched it. Incredible footage, audio and production, I'll see if I can get it up ASAP.

I don't know why it's taken so long for some of that footage to be shown. It's mindblowing.

 

[swansfan51]

God damnit why did I get home late tonight. Are Fox reshowing it, either way I look forward to seeing your upload grim

 

[grimlock]

I'm staying up just to upload this. Have to be up at 6.30 as well

Upload started!

 

[RW]

Just watched it. Wow. I started to tear up at the end of Macca's speech.

[grimlock]

I love the shot of the bench with the 4 players, the support staff and the red and white army going bezerkers in the background. We've only seen, well I've only seen, the shot from the camera on the roof of the interchange area.

 

[bedford]

We saw Richard Colless receiving the flag, but we never saw his speech, can you get that by any chance, grim

 

[grimlock]

Sorry I only have what was broadcast

 

[S120]

The dual shot of Josh Kennedey celebrating and his grandfather looking on and earnestly smiling was just brilliant.
