    The good news is that Foxtel’s 1.4m residential subscribers will have not have to pay to get access to the new Warner content, that will be available for Foxtel customers the same day that it’s posted to Max according to Foxtel management. Binge, which has 1.6 million subscribers, who will lose access to the majority of the HBO library from March 31. That is still a big blow for them, Imagine they'll lose a significant chunk of those Binge subscriptions. ESPN may keep the exclusivity up with Foxtel/Kayo - we'll find out in a few months. Speaking of ESPN they've just mutually ended their 35 year deal with Major League Baseball. Streaming Wars very fluid.
  2. I know Richmond were inexperienced but would love to kick 21.6 though.
  3. They did some partnership with Football Australia but not sure how much traction that got https://www.footballaustralia.com.au/news/football-australia-partners-lego-australia-build-a-more-inclusive-future-football

    According to reports, GWS Giants rising star Finn Callaghan has already rejected a verbal offer from St Kilda and is expected to commit to the Giants beyond this season. The 21-year-old’s contract expires at the end of 2025 and recent reports claimed the Giants had made Callaghan’s contract extension the club’s priority over the off-season. Now Channel 9’s Tom Morris reports Callaghan is close to ticking off a four-year contract extension with the Giants — valued at around $4 million. According to the report, St Kilda came hard for Callaghan’s signature and was preparing a 10-year, $17 million offer. It would have been the richest contract in the history of the AFL. We like to complain about not being able to snare a big name player, but surely there is a player out there who'll bite off one of these mammoth St Kilda contracts, just shows how "equalisation" doesnt always exist for the smaller clubs.

    It's an interesting one, I know there have been a few injuries so we'll see what happens. Whilst we would benefit if they did extend this year (which i'm doubtul) it would make me feel a little annoyed especially if you compare this year to last year Carlton lose Pick 3, a raw skinny kid and might be able tor replace him compared to us last year we lost Gus a 150+ game premiership player and couldn't do anything until midseason. Guess we don't have big boy bargaining power though.
  6. TBH I probably wouldn't have recognised him before, Sounds like he has quite a few mini-pre-seasons and weight sessions on the agenda.

    I'd personally like to see the pre-season window extended until a few hours before the first game of the season.

    This list is a disgrace, has left off Jefferson, Belial, Behemoth, Beelzebub, Asmodeus, Satanas, and Lucifer

    This is what upset me about Gus, medically retired (by the AFL?) a few days after the deadline and we didn't receive any concession. I don't mind the "windows" but for pre-season there should also be an element of discretion if something occurs before Round Zero/One in my opinion.

    Not just unbearable, there's just aura of toxicity/tension at any Collingwood game. Whenever we play them i don't wear any Dees gear.
  12. MFC website has McAdam as a Medium forward, the injury announcement has him as a small forward, he's shrinking as well poor guy. Timing is everything and worked out in Henderson's favour. Happy to have him on board - especially as we considered him in the draft.

    He's back in Melbourne at training per GW

    Seems everyone is keen to draw a line through LK. Is this because they don't see the promise or they want additional players through the SSP. I think Roy serves a purpose as we are a bit low on small forwards but we may get more out of Culley/Henderson. Was keen to see LK after a full AFL-Pre-Season but seemingly that's been derailed.
  15. We'll definitely lose people (both in attendance and viewership) to the F1. We're starting 20 minutes after the race starts too. Perhaps it may have been wiser to give us the 12:35pm slot for the armchair viewers. But i'm sure we'll put a respectable crowd. I'm not attending either as I have a function that day - which is not ideal,
