Off to bloody Coffs Harbour now....

Post: # 1045700Post saintspremiers »

Why doesn't the AFL give up on these stupid praccy matches in far-flung places?

What's wrong with Vic teams playing in Melbourne or Geelong only?

Ridiculous.

At least Wirgin Blue have non-stop flights to Coffs from Melbourne, let's hope they get a direct flight!

Who are playing in Coffs Harbour? If it's against another Victorian based side, then it seems somewhat silly.

On the plus side, the players can get away from the miserable Melbourne weather and catch some rays 8-)

Must be against one of the recent dropouts, yeah? GC would seem about right. Anything on the AFL site?

Not sure if Northern NSW is the place for sunshine...you need to head West!

Dunno why they chose a long weekend for it....

So under your system Sydney play WS for 4 weeks in a row.

what's wrong is that during the season we'll have to play in a shedload more places than just melbourne and geelong. why not get used to it?

I did think they may change the time though
still advertised as 7 pm

5 pm or even 3 or 4 would be better for travel.

Tigers have been recording challenge games for supporters.

Uploaded to Roar TV, what a great idea.

Can we hope that St Kilda takes a video camera along against the Swans, and we can watch it on Saints TV (like the best and fairest)

Pretty please :)

True,

Though I have been impressed thus far in 2011, Monday wrap, Friday factor, Saints in 60, Tuesday checkup....have all been good initiatives that I have enjoyed and appreciated.

For those who may of missed them, they are being regularly updated to saints.com.au weekly.

Come on Saints, just a live stream, all I ask 8-)

Is it the Tigers that is actually uploaded or AFL Vision? Surely they wouldnt put on poor quality film that the Tigers would do?
