Re: Saints v blues match thread

OK. This is the Melbourne game all over again. They hold possession and we run ragged chasing with no reward. Tackles aren't sticking, kicks are not hitting targets - Weller, Gresham, Minchington nowhere. We are being out pressured and it shows our weaknesses. Dunstan is a witches hat. One stoppage ...

Re: AFLW first game - Carlton V Collingwood

Commenting from far away, but I think this is a step in the right direction for the game. Seeing the lack of women's sport in the US apart from USW Soccer, WNBA and Lingerie Football (of the big 4 sports) it is great that the AFL is making a move. It had to start somewhere and although the skills ar...

Andre Holmes

Just wanted to congratulate Andre Holmes, Jason's brother, in getting a game with the Raiders tonight and scoring a touchdown. It is only preseason, but he does not always get a gig so he is taking advantage of any game time.
Go Holmesy!

Re: Match Thread Saints v Hawks @ Tassie

You cant slide in to an opposition players legs anymore.
The commentators called it correctly.
That was one of the few decisions the umps got right in the last.

Re: Match Thread Saints v Hawks @ Tassie

EF Hawthorn.
That pathetic ump at their end was a disgrace.
We played a ripping game.
If Paddy sinks that one we win.
Got so much to look forward to when we get some youth in the backline.
Go SAINTS, all the way from LA!

Re: Game Day: Power V Saints

Half Time Observations... 1. Hickey is playing like he has promised. Winning the hit outs and if he doesn't he is making an impact as a midfielder. 2. Gresham has composure. Will get better with time for sure. 3. Templeton is playing himself into it. I had doubts, but if he can get stronger around t...

Re: McEvoy to Hawthorn

Love this move. As much as Macca is a great leader and a pretty good ruckman, this really gives us what we need (a tough, quick, skillful runner) as well as another first round pick. Macca will be a loss in terms of a big bodied midfielder (he was more a midfielder than a genuine ruckman) and a lead...

Re: Footy fix in the USA?

AFLLive.tv is the best sports streaming I have come across. I am in LA and have been for 4 years now. Streams really well, no drop outs, quality is exceptional as I plug my lap top into my 47" Plasma and it looks as good as any TV station here. Payed for the whole year last year and it was wort...

You will have to pay, but it has a good stream.
I use the service here in LA and it has been great.

LA to Melbourne...again

Much to my girlfriends disapproval, I will be leaving LA tonight on the lovely A380 QANTAS flight bound for Melbourne.
I arrive Friday morning in time for the parade.
Same thing as last year, this time I am hoping to leave a winner and much happier.

I will be flying in from LA Friday morning...second year in a row. The lovely girlfriend is still a little upset, but I told her if we win I wont have to do it next year as all I want is to see ONE flag! I got my ticket for just over $900 return from LA direct to Melbourne. Admittedly, it was throug...

Vale Brian Walsh

Yesterday St Kilda and my family lost one of the great unsung players in Brian Walsh to a long battle with illness. Uncle Brian played 129 games between 1956 and 1964. He was part of a great back line that included Verdun Howell. Injury cruelly cut his career short, just a couple of years before our...

Saints Fight Back Song

The song you are all mentioning is the Saints Fight Back Song.
Doug Parkinson I think was the singer.
I have it on MP3.
Originally I had it on a cassette I bought from a Family day down at Moorabbin.
Yeah, great song.
Will try and find a link to it online for a listen.

Cheers.

Mark, I purchased the Freo game earlier in the year. It was as live as it gets. For some reason not every single game is always available. It was worth the $7 though. Not to say I will do it for every game, just some of the big ones I cant get via ESPN or streamed by someone else. Might be worth it ...

Games in US

G'day mate. I am an LA based Saint and you will be struggling to get any pubs to have any footy on, even in Vegas. The only place you get "live" footy in the US is via ESPN 3, ESPN's web site. However you either need to be a subscriber or receive your internet through one of their "pr...
