[Viceregal]

From some of the comments I thought we had already played and lost a NAB cup game without somehow having a gameday thread or anything ... then realised they were preemptive!

GWS just announced that they will be streaming the GWS V GCS match next week. AFL must have had a change of heart.
Hopefully there's enough time to get the BRI V STK streamed live.

I'd be happy if they just allowed a proper replay of the game only

Responding to AFL supporters’ desire to access live coverage of all 27 NAB Challenge matches, the AFL today announced that live online streaming of six non-televised NAB Challenge matches would be available via competing club websites and club apps following extensive work to repurpose AFL Media resources at six venues around the country.

For those six matches, AFL Media vision will be used in conjunction with Crocmedia radio commentary to provide live online full match streams.

Customary match centre statistics, live radio commentary streams, post-match media conferences and in-match highlights for all 27 NAB Challenge matches will continue to be available throughout the NAB Challenge series via www.afl.com.au and the Official AFL App.

AFL General Manger of Broadcasting, Scheduling and Major Projects, Simon Lethlean said the decision to live stream non-televised matches was made following significant work with AFL Media to augment the highlights-packaging resources already allocated to those six matches.

“We’ve listened to the concerns of those supporters who don’t want to miss a minute of their club competing in this year’s NAB Challenge which is why we’re pleased to have overcome a number of significant hurdles to ensure every fan has the opportunity to watch their team compete in every NAB Challenge match,” Mr Lethlean said.

“This year we have worked with our broadcast partner Fox Footy to expand NAB Challenge live coverage from 18 to 21 games and we have also increased the number of NAB Challenge matches played in regional and suburban communities around Australia.

“As a result we have encountered some significant logistical, technical and signal delivery issues at some venues but through a great deal of work with AFL Media we’ve been able to repurpose resources originally slated to produce match highlights to provide live streaming from those venues for the respective club websites and apps.

“While there may still be some technical issues in the delivery of these matches we are satisfied that being able to provide a live stream of these six matches to competing club websites and club apps will please those supporters’ wanting to follow their clubs’ progress across all 27 matches of the NAB Challenge.”

Live online streaming via competing club websites and apps will be available for the following 2015 NAB Challenge fixtures:

- Brisbane v St Kilda, Moreton Bay Central Sports Complex, Saturday February 28 at 3.10pm EST
- Adelaide v North Melbourne, Centenary Oval, Sunday March 1 at 4.10pm CDT
- GWS v Gold Coast, Spotless Stadium, Saturday March 7 at 4.10pm EDT
- Port Adelaide v West Coast, Norwood Oval, Sunday March 8 at 4.10pm CDT
- Western Bulldogs v Melbourne, Eureka Stadium, Saturday March 14 at 4.10pm EDT
- Sydney v Fremantle, Drummoyne Oval, Sunday March 15 at 4.10pm EDT

What does everyone think of Golby? Is his career effectively over?

You could of said that about Crisp until his final six games last year and now he is going to be better than Beams.

He just needs to find his form and get back into the side.

 

[jackess]

I still expect him to play against Sydney if fit.

 

[WhiteLionFeva]

Not over but will be challenged by not only C Beams but Harwood and possibly one or two others to win a defensive spot.

 

[iBeng]

I love when the AFL does a 180.

[Elixuh]

Good outcome RE: the streaming. Hopefully its not potato quality for those that can't make it to the game. Better than nothing I suppose.

 

[GROTTO]

Is there a game thread for your NAB Challenge match?
