AFL Round 1 - 2018 - A 4 week build up.

[Wedgie]

Looking forward to the season, getting Foxtel installed Thursday next to our 60 inch plasma this week with the IQ3 and all sports for $40pm.
We got sick of the pub always been extra busy and loud when Geelong games are on and sick of the poorer quality streams in our media centre.
Will save so much $$$$!

I know how silly that sounds, people werent there to watch Geelong games, it was just coincidental but we were freaking amazed!
Pinballs would get played, wheels spun, screaming kids would emerge, people who had never been to the pub before would visit, it was unbelievable no matter what time or day it was!
Murphys law I suppose.
It was empty for Crows games especially after half time but thats mainky because a lot of the locals go to a mates man cave to watch them.
After going to the pub last Sunday at 12.30 when its normally dead only to fill up with loud people quickly it reminded us of last season and the decision to get Foxtel was made.

Won't be an ice berg, will be Dangerfield with a ******* film crew on his boat.

It would be ahem... dangerous enough navigating around his ego.

I’m not sure why but I fear for us this season

Nah, from all the media I’ve heard and seen the last few days I reckon it’s about 50/50 support when I think the Crows should be very firm favourites

You guys are as good as certainties for top 4. Think we will improve as the season goes on but we have plenty of guys struggling with niggles and pre season we looked horrid

[daysofourlives]

all the home teams except West Coast

Big start to the season obviously for all clubs, but Essendon in Melb a tough assignment to kick off with and should you drop it, facing the reigning premiers who believe they know what it takes to knock you off, the following week is tougher again. 0-2 start not terminal by any means, but adds pressure.

Crows 50/50 chance or better in both games at this stage, so probably nothing to worry about, but can see why you would.
