VFL Round 3 - Collingwood vs Footscray at Victoria Park (PIES WON, 100-96!) :-D

[TheFreshBanana]

That's fair enough in a basic way, however we've been complaining about s**t coverage for years & they know it. Other clubs have had radio coverage for years, some have had reasonable video for a couple of years too. We get someone stabbing at keyboard, poorly IMO & only posting "Yeah Pies!"type comments.

On top of that we spend wasted money on dance troupes & what song we play before we run out & s**t.

We have the money, we have the fan base, why are we waiting?????

I'll be accused of being old-fashioned but what I want (& i believe they are trying to do some of it now) is kick to kick after a match & god damn VFL video coverage & a decent fuggin cheersquad.

76woodenspooners can show you the post where Perty was asked and from what I remember, the response was that they understand the concern and they would be looking to address it once they finish building up the media department which I believe we can clearly see its fruition.

Like I said, I'm expecting it next season for now.

Beams played from round 2 against Melbourne in 2009. The point is if your good enough the VFL can be by passed

Beams also had experience playing against men, as he'd been involved in a QAFL GF win IIRC and performed well, in fact I vaguely recall that he was said to have played on Darryl White in the game? I may have my wires crossed...

They had radio coverage for this match. Was pretty good too, I enjoyed Luke Mason's input.

We have recently spent millions upgrading our media facilities and have the footage of the game recorded, so no. No, it looks like they will not be providing that for the members.

Hey at least we get a live chat

Nope we got the replay, check the official site.

Or watch Marsh's last 10-15 minutes, plenty of enjoyment in that game.

Doesn't it get tiring constantly complaining about the media coverage?

Give it until next season. They said they would deliver so let's be patient.

What's tiring is the Clubs consistent poor VFL coverage.

If no one complained I dare say nothing would change

Well done to lukem and the team for getting this one up. Hopefully this is really is a weekly commitment from now on.

Short summary:

1st quarter - Great to watch.
2nd quarter - Good to watch.
3rd quarter - Hard to watch.
4th quarter - Thrilling to watch.

Going to enjoy seeing this one over again. Good work, Collingwood.

highlight of the game, 4;45 first quarter where the scoreboard attendant sits down and breaks his chair

 

[Mkcaptain]

From now on at games I'll have to take note of what stage of the quarter things I want to re watch actually happen.

Kudos to the club for making this happen!

Stats for the game if anyone is interested.

Its interesting, when i first saw the best come out after watching the game live and saw J Wallin second best it surprised me. Apart from a couple of exciting runs i didn't think he did a lot. Thankfully i was vindicated when i saw his stats.....7 possessions. He didn't have a job on anyone and I didn't see any match winning efforts. Reasonable game, but second best-seriously are they taking the pis s.

Though it looks like It might be up for only a Week as the RD 2 Full Replay has been Taken own

Though hopefully lukem can explain why this is the Case

Full replay online, wow;

The Club seems to have stepped up on almost every level this year.

Hopefully they'll keep this up for more than a week but either way I'm rapt if this means VFL coverage is a permanent fixture now!

 

[Kirby]

I find that footage pretty hard to watch with the lack of focus etc.

I appreciate them putting it on though.

telstra might have a say in how much video is hosted on their sites at one time.

Well they have Video's going back Many,Many and Many years ago so I doubt that be it

 

[Pleasedontfail11]

Thanks for the stats.

De Goey got very busy by the looks of it.

Ryan Pendlebury..only 21. Did he play as well as his stats look?

Rookie Pendlebury next year? He has been excellent.

"Gee Den doesn't big Cox get you excited?"

He is showing bucket-loads of potential
