I listened to the game ball by ball as it happened on ABC radio.
got the best players and the whys and howfors from david parkin and rodney eademlistened to a few interviews and then turned to channel nine to see if they would let me watch it yet.
no
still stuck in burkes back yard so i said to myself.
channel nine are a disgrace to football and i went down and hired a movie.
edie mcguire ants the pies on centre stage every friday night.
thats great for those in victoria who can either go to the games or watch it on a small delay of less than an hour.
but friday football for interstate fans is an absolute waste of time.
in perth its a 3 and a half hr delay.
what pie fan worth his salt would wait that long?
not me.
so i probably wont watch the last 2 games either,unless i feel like watching them on foxfooty the next day.
I have loved being able to watch the pies more often since the new agreement came into being.
but with the pies having friday games 9 times on 3 and a half hr delay we are actually the side with the least live telecasts of all 16 teams in WA.
if thats good for football im a monkeys uncle.
if eddie wants the pies to play lots of friday games next year.
I hope to hell they let foxfooty show them liveAS I FOR ONE AM SICK TO DEATH OF THE DELAY TREATMENT FRIDAY FOOTY GETS IN STATES OUTSIDE VICTORIA.
From the sound of it the umpires were stoopid as usual ,we were wastefuller than normal,yet still had a sniff late in the game.
doesnt say much for essendon.
we need a game killer like other teams have.
Bucks never wins a game off his own boot like a voss or a hird.
the search for a super star must begin now.
wasteful pies come a cropper v dons
