Why didn't either of the AFL reserves sides want to be a part of it?

For the IT or tech savvy people out there, how hard would it be to do this?

Pretty ridiculous that you can only watch the games of your club and not all sanfl games

A. The Club was invited to participate this year however its supporters don't give a shit about the comp, so why bother? They say they will look at participating in 2018, when they should say they're simply not interested at all. Please contact your Club for further information. Perhaps speak to a board member and raise it as an issue when you get the tap on the shoulder to attend the Club's next AGM.
Q. Why can’t I purchase a PAFC Digital Pass?
A. The Club was invited to participate this year however its supporters don't have access to the Internet or phones that aren't connected to the wall of your house/borstal/remand centre. They will look at participating once the supporter base has upgraded from black and white Rank Arena TV sets. This could take many years. If you have further information on new technologies please contact your Club.

Its fantastic for fans interstate and overseas.
Its fantastic for disbled people who struggle to get to games.
Its fantastic for people who whilst working can place a phone on their desk to catch a glimpse of, much more subtle than a radio especially in an office where AM rarely works well.
Its fantastic for someone like myself who was losing interest, had dropped my club membership for the first time in 30 years and was going to less and less games. Because of the pricing/value I've now joined up as a member again which I didnt think I would ever do (got a 5 home match ticket membership) and $130 extra is going to my club this year that wouldnt have normally.
Id never put a radio on in a pub but can quite easily have my phone on muted.
Love the idea of a permanent score/timer on the screen too so Ill know exactly whats happening straight away.
Its in its first year, hopefully issues like people wanting to have access to all games will be ironed out in the future but its a pretty good starting point.
I love video streams and hardly ever listen to the radio, thank you SANFL

If you're watching it on your phone you can't really be doing anything else............. unless you're female and you can do everything!!

In 86 the bloke who worked for me got married on the 2nd semi final, most of the people attending were from Kapunda & the west coast, almost all North barrakers. The racket that went up after every goal while the ceremony was on shit the bride no end.
My own wedding was on Cox Plate day, could just hear the priest over the earphones listening to the Group 1's.
Moral of the story..........Take at least a mild interest in your wedding preparations.......
