The Aussie commentators do make me laugh. Heard this earlier on the radio:
"....is coming on to make his AFL debut. He'll be easily recognizable to us oldies with that 'Sullivans' haircut" 😆
With lots on this weekend, it'll be the St Kilda game only for me unfortunately - but I'll be listening to the Carlton game tomorrow at work on the radio for sure.
Cheers. I do follow the club on IG, so will keep an eye open. Also - I need a Swans bobble hat as Im sure I saw a couple of people with them on?...is there a specific store you can order from?
Really enjoyed it, and will try to get along to more when I can.
Is using Waterhall going to be a regular thing now, as you normally play in East Brighton Park or Preston Park?
All credit to Geelong on Saturday - Carlton just didn't have enough in the tank to wrestle the game away from them. Kicking was generally poor from the Blues (for a 2nd week in a row) with far too many behinds and easy missed chances. Too little too late in the end, but a great game of football...
The weather may not look great for the weekend, but Im tempted to head over to Waterhall after the Carlton game tomorrow morning to watch the Sussex Swans take on North London Lions. Ball up is 12.30 for the men, and 2.30 for the women.
Go Swannies!
Like you guys, weekend mornings have become devoted to the AFL for me. Nothing better than sitting down with a coffee & watching the organised chaos of Aussie Rules while the family are still in bed. I may be a Carlton fan, but I enjoy watching whichever game is being shown.
I LOVE how old...
Not managed to see much AFL at all over the weekend as I was so busy. Will have to catch up this week!
If anyone is interested in watching the game locally, Sussex Swans are growing fast, and the season is just about to start. They're having a family fun day on April 14 in Preston Park too...
Opening round win for the Blues to start the '24 season off with a bang, and a last minute winner from Harry McKay to squeeze past Brisbane Lions 86-85.
Cracking game of football 😃
Lets go Baggers!
That was incredible.
I was out on a ride listening to the last quarter, and the last 2 minutes were just mayhem & pure comedy in the commentary booth. Put a huge smile on my face as I listened. Will have to see if I can find it online at some point to post here.
GET IN, YOU LITTLE RIPPER!
