    Sounds good. That’s one thing I always stir the other half about, how AFL games go on forever. Even after a game of league is finished, the AFL will still be going on and on even if it started earlier. He would never be content with just updates and the final quarter - he needs to watch every second.

      Also, you must watch FTA if you get to check scores during ad breaks. We pay for Foxtel since we need to get access to both the league and AFL.

        A few times - hard as well to wear the obligatory Richmond Tigers Cap you get with the membership each year as people might mistake me for a Wests Tigers supporter - Mrs Salvo calls me Darryl - mmm more caps (Roosters and Richmond Tigers) for the "pool room"

        Have so many of them- Richmond have now changed it that if you don't want a cap you can get a voucher for the value of the cap that you put towards something else you purchase but only redeemable via their on line shop.

          Only FTA - Not keen on giving money to Murdoch myself - MLB is on Fox though - I view the boxed scores and game highlights via the MLB site - Atlanta Braves only 2 games behind the NY Mets in the National League East - 37 regular season games to go.

            I’d prefer not to pay Murdoch either - I’m sick of being ripped off by Foxtel’s convoluted packages - but it’s the best way we can guarantee live access to all Roosters and Richmond games through the season.

              The AFL site gives score updates

              4 twenty minute quarters - They have time off when the ball goes out of bounds and when a goal is kicked as the ball has to come back for the centre bounce- quarters can go 30 minutes plus as a result but 20 minutes of game time must be played each quarter,

              League tried that too stopping the clock but games where going well over 80 minutes some into 90 minutes plus as a result of stoppages so they canned that idea

                  NHL and NFL games can take hours to play out even though they are officially only 60 min games. Advertising rules the roost over here and stoppages are sometimes thrown in just to get advertising onto the screens.

                    For 2 years Melbourne feared us our big GF win and then that gruelling defensive Prelim in 19 (minus JWH) when SST shaped up to NAS off one of the very first runs of not the first run of the game and both got binned can’t remember exactly, defensively we’re not that team but it’s the first time I’ve felt confident of a win against them in years.

                    We need to limit the influence Munster has he’s at the top of his game but what I have really disliked about them this season is the penalty milking feigning injury B. Smith did one of the best acting performances in recent memory holding his neck to get a penalty and they scored of the ensuing play I hope we really put them to the sword we just need to play with discipline for the 80 come on boys

                    GO EASTS!!!

                      Day one in the office season Jarred better pull that blonde wannabe aside and let him know in very clear terms that Roosters don’t lie down for penalties.

                          Stark contrast to the vics who hate the swans and the success they have had which permeates through officials and commentators.
                          The storm have been brilliantly administered as a club and had one of the greatest coaches the game has seen at the helm who has bought much success through fair means and foul, the real test will be when Bellamy hangs up the clipboard.
                          Bullfrog set-up Melbourne?
                          Nah, it was Reebs, John Ribot de Bresac. Still lives down there

                                And Channel 9 doesn't. Score display has gone from the screen and is seldom mentioned. Frustrating.
