V Collingwood @ Etihad on Friday Night 7.40pm

[Peace]

if you have foxtel and you have sport, then you will be able to see the game on channel 518 once the game broadcast starts.

[Primmy]

I am recording, and changed the original 12.30pm setup with channel seven (the evil sporn of nastiness) to 12.00pm after being given the heads up by a friend that they have changed it. However I have added half an hour to the recording as I don't trust channel seven to be able to do up my velcro trainers.

It would be great to have foxtel, but we, the people in this complex, are not allowed to have it as there would be satellite dishes on the roof opposite and one too many people don't like the look so all 40 units are not allowed to have it. Plus the additional $1,000 per unit to have foxtel fishbone the place. That puts a burden on the elderly and self funded retirees who just can't do it. I hate foxtel for givingme all the hope of having fun, and stripping it away. Do they HAVE to advertise on fta???? Miserable grumble over; wait for next installment

[Wardy]

I really want us to win - but not at the expense of injuries that could occur - and I so hope that we dont get any. ( yeah I know they are not a bunch of princesses but I jsut dont think NAB cup is worth the effort) I will watch and hope like hell we at least give them a run for their money. A nice touch would be if Mick Malthouse wore his King of Moomba crown onto the ground at the quartertime breaks!!!

So it seems both lamb and parker will miss out tonight. So much for "no limits"

[ugg]

As much as I hate Collingwood you have to admire how they go about it in their chasing, tackling and pressure. They are leaps and bounds ahead of any other team in the AFL in this respect. They have some first team players but those that have come in in their place have been just as good in their defensive side of the game. The Swans have little idea how to get past this setup. Once in a while, we've managed to luckily carry it into the forward 50 but that has proved the exception not the norm.

TDL and Rohan haven't touched it

[CADSKY]

great effort by the boys. bit disappointed with the result but great indication of where the team is at and how this season is going to go. so long as we dont get another 70 point flogging by melb round 1 i think its gonna be a good year

[Bas]

He only has a business info + sport package so i'd say it's just the limit of his subscription - we're not allowed foxtel at home because apparently i watch too much football as it is!

Hang on, didn't I remember you saying last year that you worked?

If you are over 18, since when did you need permission from your parents?

[Bas]

Although mugpie supporters need a good wash and clean, whenever the teams play against each other, you never get that nastiness as we get from some other teams such as bumbers and dogs in previous years.

Que??? Oh be serious Bas. I was there a few years ago when the collingwood cheersquad launched an attack on two swans supporters sitting in the block next to them two rows in front of me. the supporters were 10 years old. That is just once incident. I have seen others, but that was the one that shocked me the most. they were little kids in swans colours. with shocked faces. the collingwood cheer squad are disgusting.

Primmy, I meant between the teams themselves. Certainly not the knuckle dragging supporters. Throw a bone into their cheer squad.

Still live at home where they pay the bills - i'm not complaining ... they pay my swans membership too!

That is very fortunate for you. However, letting you stay up that late is not good for your health.
