Fully appreciate that footy clubs need to run a tight ship as far as expenses go ...

... and now more than ever before ...

... but gee, aren’t they taking it a bit far worrying about the cost of streaming an intra club match during the pre-season?!?

Shouldn’t they be looking for ways to deliver value to their members in the middle of a pandemic?

Even local cricket teams are streaming their matches these days with single cam stationary camera set ups.

That what I thought too.

Don't think it hard to get a Camera and Hook it up to a Computer and then Stream on something like Youtube. Use the one they do for Coaches Video

We not Expecting TV Quality Footage/Coverage

Other Clubs seem to do it or at least have some Video Highlights on what Happened

Obviously cricket and bowls are easier sports to cover than AFL, but no one is asking them to do it to a television broadcast standard. I don't see what makes a bare bones stream expensive to run. Admittedly, its not my area of expertise so would be happy if anyone can offer any insights into what makes it cost prohibitive.

Sadly, I can’t imagine that we’d have many sponsors banging down our door to throw money at us at the moment.

Geelong's AFLW team is now playing at GHMBA stadium 7.10 on Friday. That would mean our match would be starting at 3.30-4.00? Not ideal timing

Lots of people will still be working and picking kids up from school. I'll try and finish up early if its streamed but even on a Friday things can pop up that require attention in the afternoon.

Well Hopefully they put up the Video up afterwards so people can still watch the Game IF people can't see it

Maybe they'll move the practice match to Thursday or play it at a different ground now that AFLW has been scheduled in Geelong.

Hope not but if that was the case I would definitely prefer an afternoon start on Friday with a stream!
