canman Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Hi guys, seeing that the match of the round was not being broadcast (Eagles & Swans) on the Aus channel I found the live.afl website and subscribed. Has anyone else used this service? The reason I ask is that although the live stream was of fair quality the stream kept jumping back and forwards 5-10 minutes. I should mention that I started the stream 15 minutes into the game and did a rewind to the start. Anyone else experienced issues with this service?

Signed up last week and had the same problems as you had,but had no problems watching other games.I thought about contacting them then thought what is the use.A bit average I thought seeing that I had only signed on a couple of days before.

ripstanley Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 What a win for Geelong.I could not believe the number of turnovers that Watson gave. I missed the first quarter through car problems but if Essendon want to make the top 4 they will have to improve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BookMan Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 I watched the game. 1st Q all St kilda 2nd Q all Swans 3rd Q all St kilda (not reflected on scoreboard) 4th Q mostly St kilda. They could not kick a goal. The scoreline is deceptive. up until 4 minutes to go there was 12 point margin in favour of the swans. It was a tough game across the field, with both sides let down by their inaccurate kicking in front Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ripstanley Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 It sounds like Swans may have been in a lit trouble. Next week the play Gold Coast. It is being televised at 1630 on Saturday. No family outings next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No family outings next week. The Swans were lucky to get away with a win in my opinion. They didnt play that badly, but their kicking didn't help, it was just lucky that neither did St Kilda help their own cause Edited July 22, 2012 by BookMan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ripstanley Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 According to reports on AFL.com they kicked 4 gooal in the last 6 minutes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xangsamhua Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 According to reports on AFL.com they kicked 4 gooal in the last 6 minutes Pretty amazing. I remember Leigh Matthews saying he wouldn't consider his side was "home" unless the opposition had to kick as many goals as there were minutes remaining. Sydney went close. (PS. I nearly typed "South went close". Why is it that after 30 years I still think of Sydney as South? I'm not nostalgic for the Lakeside oval nor resentful of the move North. It's just some quirk of the brain. Do any other old timers still instinctively think of the Swans as South?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched bits and pieces on AFL live and also copied it on a DVD recorder.I will check it out and see if i can send it to you. the umpiring was a bit ordinary. The decisions evened out in the end but hard to know why they give some penalties. Hawthorn thumped Collingwood even without Lance Franklin. Adelaide also thumped West Coast, but I think that has to be taken in context with West Coast missing a lot of players still Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh Kennedy and Andrew Embley may return, but too late to make a difference. Eagles fated to finish 5 or 6 at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long past it now, but I did do a double take when Brissie wore Fitzroy jumpers at a recent heritage game. Yes, the Fitzroy heritage doesn't really sit well, although it's good that, in at least this sense, Fitzroy hasn't lost its presence altogether at AFL level. (There is a Fitzroy FC playing in the VAFA; they wear the Fitzroy colours and logo, and their home ground is the Brunswick Street Oval. I think the AFL Lions and the amateur Roys have patched up their differences since the paddle pop lion fiasco, with some help from a cash handout, I assume.) I feel quite chuffed to see the Lions wearing Fitzroy gear in Heritage Round; more than I would seeing them wearing Bears guernseys, though I was a Bears supporter from day one. The Bears just weren't around long enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
