All for the club cooperating with the media generally but not sure how any player can ever win being miked for a game. Its one thing I would say thanks, but no thanks. Too many negative risks and not many positives.

Not suggesting it is - just interested in others opinions.
I'm not averse to things like this, especially if it's the Captain with the mike on. Being a quite reserved sort of guy who is a devout Christian, he's unlikely to let slip a few f & c's go and potentially embarrass the club. Personally that wouldn't bother me even if he did, but to some it most definitely would.

North has always been a progressive club and our open media access policy gives us good exposure and even more so with our limited prime time schedule on national fta tv. Also I enjoy these behind the scenes type things which is especially interesting when I can't be there in person and have to make do with watching on the box. NFL is miles in front of our game as far as club access and it's better for it from a viewers perspective, too just quietly.

I hope we see more of this type of stuff in future hopefully.

Will be interesting to watch the replay - at the ground from our vantage point, Swallow led the way with defensive effort - chasing and tackling. He, Hansen and Jacobs looked like the best movers.

It was arranged for the documentary "the chosen few" which focuses on the captains. Ch7 asked if they could use some audio from it so we asked Andrew and he said "yes"
Cool. I enjoyed the coaches edition of The Chosen Few so hopefully the captains version is just as good.

Would find it staggering if any supporter had an issue with getting a closer look and feel of the game.
 
The vision was used very selectively so I'd be hesitant to use what he said during the 'Sounds of the Game' segment as evidence of his leadership or lack thereof like some were in the match day thread.
 
I have the replay on now and in the half time interval they play snippets.

There is an incident where Benny J fluffs it and it was average at the game and average on the replay leading to a shot at goal.

Spitta tells him 'Sloppy. That was sloppy'.

BJ argues point with Spitta.

Good that Spitta told him.

Poor that BJ argues back.

(FWIW, I thought that was one of the best games of BJ's)
