Also tried to watch on Kayo, but i think it was playing an old game as we won... weird

 

[Yippy Yi Yeo]

Yes the first 2 quarters were unwatcheable. Rubbish by Kayo.

Crazy how they have the monopoly over AFL streaming and despite their service seemingly becoming worse by the week they think it's justified increasing their price. When will they be held accountable?

Had mates who bought the UFC 300 pay per view through it as well and just completely shit the bed and didn't work.

It's bullshit. If we are paying for the service sort it out.

If someone doesn't go on a public crusade against them soon I might have to start one myself, they're a f***ing joke

Maybe they should’ve have split their picks to get more first rounders in the door

Yep or just selected the less talented bloke who lives down the road who is never going to leave.

It's amusing that he only uses the Hawks as an example, but it is good that the issue is being discussed. His proposed solutions actually have some merit, don't stop the academies/father son but make clubs pay a reasonable price (or a premium if they are top 10 talents).

I cant stand these flogs.....

Why West Coast’s win was Waterman’s watershed moment

There was plenty to like about the Eagles’ first win of the season on Sunday, but the performance from a 25-year-old in his eighth season on the list stood out most.

Even though a major issue for several years it took till last year with Gold Coast before the AFL has taken notice of the rort of swapping 1st rounders for junk picks to get a top end talent.

The AFL still came out with the draft being "Complex not compromised".

Just got back to a mates after going to the game and tried to chuck it on kayo but the frame rate was so bad and juttery we couldn't even watch it, thought it must've just been his tv. Went back to my house and tried to watch it and had the exact same problem, absolutely disgraceful app. Can watch geelong playing witches hats with no issues at all however.

Yeh, same 4k issues. I tried watching on FTA but ads and quality made me puke...I could stream it from my phone fine and cast to the TV, it did that fine.

 

[ROO DOGG]

I hear Norf are going to ask for more PP’s again this year

They already have some for this year, they chose to trade them in the advent that they win games this year and loose them. They cant double up can they?

Yep no mention as to how our 2nd pick was pushed out from 19 to 30, if I am not wrong.
