Review GC SUNS vs Port Adelaide - Scratch Match @ Metricon

[PatientMental]

I thought that'd be Channel 7

That's for racist boomers.

 

[Schulzenfest]

Clearly never watched 90 day fiance

And every day I thank the merciful Lord for that.

 

[Tibbs]

I got kayo for the footy. I keep it for the darts

Love the fact you can watch the match from the start, even if it is still being played, and you can select to not know the scores. Also I am a mad keen F1 follower, so get see all that action. Then there is the golf, and all the tennis, Footy shows, and more.

I got it for the AFL & to see all of Port's matches here in Brisvegas, but tend to watch all or parts of many others each week. I share it with two friends, so only pay pittance each month. Now I am hooked. I also took advantage of the cheap deal through Telstra for the first year, which is great.

Winner, winner!

 

[GremioPower]

Cool story bro. My $25 a month is going to make exactly $0.00 of difference to Gerard Whateley's salary. Enjoy watching the three games a week Channel 7 bother to show you on an hour delay.

You all could share an account. Win-win.

 

[GremioPower]

We are happy with Dewy

Hi, formerly-known-as Supersuns!

[PatientMental]

Ahh, I see we're going with our prelim setup again.

 

[Steve Dore]

I don't watch enough sport to justify Kayo. It would just be for the occasional AFL game.

I had Kayo last year on the $5/month special offer for Telstra customers but cancelled it as soon as the season finished. The bonus was that I got to watch AC36 live but like you I don't watch enough of the sports on Kayo to justify paying full price for it.

Foxtel is for boomers ...

I thought that'd be Channel 7

I'm a Boomer and I don't have Foxtel and the only thing I watch on CH 7 is the AFL.

 

[Lefti93]

Hope Hayes and Bergman make the trip, possible that we bring as many as 26-30 players?

F: Georgiades - Finlayson - Gray
HF: Powell-Pepper - Marshall - Rozee
C: Amon - Wines - Duursma
HB: Sinn - Aliir - Burton
B: Jonas (C) - Clurey - Houston
R: Lycett - Boak - Butters
INT FROM: Drew - Bonner - Byrne-Jones - Motlop - Mayes - McKenzie - Jones - Mead - Hayes - Bergman - Frederick - Skinner

that's honestly a pretty good lineup on paper.

I'm a Boomer and I don't have Foxtel and the only thing I watch on CH 7 is the AFL.

I also used the $5 special pricing and got rid of it as soon as the AFL season ended. I only watched 1, maybe 2 games a week. I think I watched a bit of rugby too. I never watched a sports doco (and I don't plan to). Also not interesting in expanding the time I spend watching sports. So basically, I am not in the target market for Kayo. I would pay $1 or $2 to watch on a per-game basis though.

I pay nothing so I don't have to watch AFL games

My $5/month offer expires in a couple weeks (kept it to watch cricket), but got an email that they're giving me another 12 months at $15/month, which is still ok I guess....better than $25.

 

[SureBuddy]

I don’t see much point taking Lycett, Jonas, Gray, Boak, Wines, Amon or Aliir. Their place in the team is assured and they will only be playing for match fitness- not a good enough reason for a long road trip 3 weeks out from the first game.

Let the others play in their new roles and for a spot in the Round 1 team:

F Georgiades Finlayson Motlop
HF Rozee Marshall Bergman
C Sinn Drew Duursma
HB Burton Skinner Jones
B Byrne-Jones Clurey McKenzie
R Hayes Powell-Pepper Butters
I Houston Bonner Burgoyne Lord Mayes Mead Frederick McEntee
Subbed In Second Half: Visentini Schofield Williams Pasini

Inj Dixon Fantasia Jackson Farrell Dumont
Rested; Lycett Jonas Gray Boak Wines Amon Aliir

You only have 2 hit outs before the season. We will be taking everyone who is fit.

We got Kayo in July last year.

I've watched the likes of darts, surfing from Hawaii, snooker, world's strongest man comp, the equivalent of district cricket from the eastern states, and other fun sports

Plenty of all manner of women's Sports if that interests you too.

And if you scroll down the menu there are links to Fox Sports channels too, including 504 footy

 

[Rendaw]

Weird - I can only see the AAMI Community Series on there starting with our match vs the Camries.

 

[DBrowJ]

I guess its for former kayo customers but a new offer of one month free, offer expires march 7, can watch all pre season games

Oh yep I mean I can see the other games too, I just mean in terms of pre-season games I can only see the Camries one.

isn't hobbling. Rozzee, Duursma, and Butters hopefully all staying healthy. Lachie Jones starting to show his wares. And improvement from some of our tall forwards. We really should be a better team this year

 

[CrimsonRaven]

Annoying this isn't on WatchAFL as far as I can tell. First game there is the 'official' community shield game v Crows.

Ms Palaszczuk said 15 dams were at capacity with several spilling, including Baroon Pocket Dam on the Sunshine Coast, Hinze Dam on the Gold Coast and Leslie Harrison Dam in the Redlands.

"Locally intense rainfall is possible and since many catchments are now saturated there is an increased risk of dangerous and life-threatening flash flooding over the coming days," she said."

Over the coming days, some areas will see a month's worth of rain fall."

A severe weather warning has been issued for areas between Maryborough to the Gold Coast and stretching west to Toowoomba.

Woman dies in floodwater after 'scary' amount of rain hits Queensland, warnings for Brisbane River catchment

More than 400 millimetres of rain is recorded near Gympie in less than 24 hours and the wet weather isn't letting up for days, with authorities announcing a woman has died in floodwaters.

The Hinze Dam is on the Nerang River and so is Metricon Stadium.

Safest for all to shift the game to Alberton.
