thepokey posted:Essendon would be keen to set up a trade with St Kilda for Yestin Eades. Maybe take their first round pick or Billings or something We'll probably get someone decent, there's going to be about $1 million in cap space without even taking into account someone like Watson retiring at years end.

Anyone know what the deal is with the Telstra AFL season pass thing I get for free for being a Telstra customer? Does that let me stream games?

realbez posted:Yes, you can stream games all year on your phone or tablet, but not a computer. I think if you have android you can cast it to a TV but it won't look great on a big screen. And the data is unmetered as a Telstra customer.* gently caress, I was hoping to get it on the computer. Who thought making people squint at a little phone screen for 4 quarters of footy would be a good idea?

Pity about the streaming making it hard to watch the game. From what I did see it looks like Fantasia has picked up where he left off last year and it was good to see the returning players make it through without any injuries and looking in reasonable touch. I thought Langford might have done a bit more given the way his preseason has been talked about. snaeksikn posted:Is Mcdonald-Tipingwuti rocking a Mohawk now?

Chairchucker posted:Question: for the AFLW teams, 9000 was described as being a pretty good crowd. (And it was probably a bigger crowd than, for example, GWS had in some of its year one matches.) How big do we reckon crowds will eventually get? Will it be big enough to warrant maybe using actual AFL ovals? They could have them in AFL grounds right now you'd think, just put a bunch of tarps out

Periphery posted:Aren't they already appealing the appeal or some crap based on 'new evidence' or something? As you can tell I was very interested in yet more drug saga so I gave it a lot of attention. Some group not affiliated with the club have appealed to the minister to review the case (there's actually a bit of support for this, the Greens want some sort of review into the way ASADA handled the case). Some other group also not affiliated with the club have sent a bunch of writs to the AFL demanding something. Meanwhile the club is pretty keen to move on, as are most fans.

thepokey posted:If some people external and separate to the club in whatever capacity want to appeal, or hell, not appeal, just investigate ASADA's investigation as to how it was bungled/made worse than it should have been - hey go for it. Even though Essendon's shoddy book keeping and Hird's appealing etc made ASADA's job 10x harder. If it's Essendon themselves, gently caress right off. What would appealing AGAIN achieve? You can't take back the time the players were suspended. If you cleared the name/got Jobe's medal back...eh, I'd say the ability to move on here and now means more. That said, I doubt Essendon want anything more to do with it themselves now. They've settled all the lawsuits, the suspensions are done, the shitstains responsible are cleared out. As the kids like to sing - let it go, let it goooo It's not Essendon. They'd probably prefer these fan groups didn't bother at all because it just fills the back pages with stuff the club would much rather be moving on from.

Then back to unknown error. he had 60 or so % game time so he wasn't off the ground. It was his first game back from injury though and he might have lacked a bit of fitness probably doesn't matter if Begley can make habit of performances like that though

James Hird has a gig writing for the Hun now, sounds like he's doing a lot better. Also apparently Lockett is right into his endurance motorbike racing which might be one reason he lost so much weight

I'd be disappointed if Essendon finish in the bottom 3 as most people are suggesting given there's a bunch of players back and they don't have the mental strain of the drugs scandal hanging over them any more

ewe2 posted:Hawks are definitely cooked, but that's not the whole story. Essendon have a working midfield, lots of goalkickers, they can do well. it's not like the returning players spent their entire time out of the game sitting on their arses either, they all trained hard and came back with excellent fitness it was a bit like a 12 month preseason

snoremac posted:Can someone who watched the game explain the Ess vs. Haw result to me??? I get that all the drug dudes returned but still... Hawks are old and slow, Essendon exposed that with their quicker players. The Hawks were also missing their leaders in Hodge, Mitchell and Lewis. The new guys in O'Meara, Mitchell and Vickery don't play like the old Hawthorn from the sounds of things, lots of selfishness or hacked kicks forward out of a contest instead spotting a loose man.
