CATS v. PIES - Practice Match

[Dark Beanie]

Looking forward to watching game today.

Interested to see how some of the newbies go, if they get a gig.

[Raw Hammer]

Hi crew, anyone a member who will not be watching the game live this morning? If so, can you PM me the log in details and whatever else is required to access the live stream?

(Yes, I have not yet renewed my membership.)

Watch the Geelong v Collingwood practice match from 10.50am here - <please don't share the link in full public view - thx, the mods team>

[The Boy Who Cried Wolf]

So we can watch for free or not?

I know the club lost a lot of money last year as did everyone but to be honest not 'streaming' the game 'live' and 'free' is to their detriment - right now it should all be about inclusion and bringing the fans back in and, not exclusion and pushing them out.

[WhyPhilWhy?]

Given that the Club expressly stated that the stream was for members, we don't want to jeopardize our relationship with them by publishing the link.

There will be other means of finding the link that we can't control.

Thanks...the mods team

Also the club should think about 'platforms' like twitch.. like the NBL has recently (and kudos to them) I mean obviously they're not going to broadcast live home and away games etc there but it is a good medium to utilize in other ways and to cast the net further than just on the 'Club Website'. Specially since it reaches a world wide audience...

[mattdally]

Will be good to see Sier, Trent Bianco, Oliver Henry and Nathan Murphy

[The Boy Who Cried Wolf]

Well whatever the club is doing on their website (see link above), its just gone live...

Hopefully we get to enjoy a game of pigskin.

[mattdally]

Sier gone full skin head

[WhyPhilWhy?]

Or maybe, for all the members who paid their dues last year but got pretty much the same coverage of games as non-members, maybe this is a nice little thank you?

[The Boy Who Cried Wolf]

Looks like it - good on the club... well done.

[The Boy Who Cried Wolf]

Daicos with the 1st kick, Sidebottom looks like he's playing forward (finally....)

I appreciate the fact that members are a financial benefit and yea got reduced
use of membership benefit in 2020 and also yes a benefit by seeing this game today

But many out there who are supporting Collingwood but are financial challenged to fit membership into their budget—I’m an aged pensioner with some mobile issues that restrict me attending games

That said I hope we get some valuable game time and the two. Bianco & Henry get a taste

[mattdally]

Cameron goal within first minute - likely to kick 10

Oh I hope some commentary put up here would be appreciated
