Old Croc Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Sydney are going to have to learn to kick straight, far too many points mean far too many close games. I still like Hawthorn this year, but Collingwood is looking a little stroger now than a few weeks ago. My quote from 13/8. Sydney certainly kicked straight when it mattered! Congratulations Swans! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ripstanley Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 What a great win to the SYDNEY SWANS. When Hawthorn got 2 goals in front in the last quarter I thought it would be hard to come back. What a team to fight back and win. They all played well. They are a great team. Congratulations.I am happy for you and all the other Swans supporters.www.youtube.com/embed/N8pWYylLOlA?rel=0 Thanks Ron I like the link. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will27 Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 It's on again fella's, starting tomorrow night and it looks like Australia Network are not showing the 1st week but will be showing from the second week on. Yep, they advised me that due to scheduling problems, they're unable to broadcast the first round and will start from March 1st. The good news however, is that they are going to broadcast 5 games per week. I think they usually played 4 last year so that is excellent news. Now, I hope ASN on True Visions still play 1 live and 2 replayed games and I'll be a happy man. Regards Will 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radar501 Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 It has been a tough off-season for the AFL with persistant allegations of tanking, match fixing and doping. I will be happy once we can concentrate on the footy, and not all the off-field stuff. Go BLUES!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ripstanley Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Just watched the replay of the Hawthorn V Western Bulldogs NAB cup game on Australian Network - Pacific channel. Great game. I will not say who won as others may watch the replay later on Asia channel. I really enjoyed watching the game. I hope the standard continues.

cycloneJ Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 friend in Wellington told me he was taking his son to a AFL game there next month on Anzac Day - this one Aussie Rules Football - St Kilda v Sydney Swans 25 Apr 2013 Time: 7:40pm - 10:00pm One of the biggest sporting clashes on the Australian calendar is coming to Wellington. The St Kilda Saints will take on the Sydney Swans in a historic game of AFL football on Anzac Day, April 25th. The game will be the first ever AFL clash played outside of Australia as part of the premiership season and will form part of the Anzac Day activities to honour the servicemen and women who have given their lives to protecting both great countries. also see here don't know what size crowd they'll expect - there have been game/games played in NZ before, but not, according to above, premiership?

cycloneJ Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 ^ an answer for everything St Kilda, as part of a historic deal with Wellington Council, will call Wellington its 2nd home hosting AFL games at Westpac Stadium until at least 2015. Saints have a NZ web page NZ$9 seats for children 6-14, good deal for an afternoon event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ripstanley Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 Big win for Gold Coast over St Kilda. Swans only won by 30 points over GWS. I think this year GWS and GC will be a lot more competitive then what the experts are saying. Go the undergogs.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BookMan Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 I didn't see the GC game, but i read Ablett got 4. Regarding the Swans. Nice to see Sam Reid taking a speccy mark. When Tippet hits the Swans midway through the season Reid and Kurt will make a good team up front. Jetta was super quiet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
