First games in Melbourne will be at Visy Park on Sunday, June 9.
 
I wish Fox Footy would put the effort in to broadcast all the games. At least the ones with Div 1 sides in them. You know 24/7 footy channel and can't even find time to broadcast all the Champs in amongst the 100th replay of the weekends games. ::)
 
best draw is down at Kardinia Park. Bloody typical.

Wish they still had the old system where you just turned up yto Princes Park for a couple of days and saw all the best Australia had to offer in one place.

Yeah, that drvies me nuts. It's rubbish, most teams in Melbourne, have it in Melbourne.

Agree. It doesn't have to be a buffed up telecast. Just 2 or 3 cameras there and one or two commentators is all that is needed. FFS, they already have the cameras there for the clubs anyway.
 
Ben Lennon and Jack Billings. Just a couple to watch that I like thus far.
 
What do people know about Clayton McCartney who booted 6 goals as a small forward for Vic Country?
 
Imagine that drafting Lennon and McCartney ......................... :guitar ;D

Might be harder to find a Ringo though but we do have a Ranga or two.
 
We already had a Harrison.


I wish they would televise these games or at least upload them on AFL.com

For all the AFL's money and bluster they still don't really know how to grow and promote the game. Would it kill them to film and upload the game. Even if it was from only one camera angle? I know the clubs will definitely be filming it.

Funny thing is it is filmed. NT v VC is on youtube.

Real Geelong type fwd/mid IMO. But I've only seen a little bit. Looking forward to sitting down and watching NT v VC tomorrow

Can you wack the link up? I had a browse but couldn't find it.
 
Only seen the 1st quarter.

Nick Holman looks a go-er. Got a stack of it and generally used it well.

Alex Saunders good defensive pressure as a small.

Jarman Impey is a good user though hasn't got a lot at this stage.

Zac Merrett looked ok as well.

Outside Holman they are all sub 180cm blokes I believe.
