HELP

Got mine today...trying to get the Adelaide disc out of packet...finding it difficult to extract...wife has already cracked the plastic...just old & tired & impractical I guess. Any one had this trouble?

I did at first, expecting it to be like any other DVD I've used, but it's held in by a small bulge on the bottom side of the circle (the side nearest to the bottom of the package). Once I realised that, it was a matter of pulling it out towards the top side. See how you go.

Thanks mate...nothing moving! Will take back to Sanity. Why reinvent the wheel for no good reason & not even offer instructions!

IT'S HERE

I love the holographic thingy on the front.
That's gunna keep me amused for hours!!

I found the packaging really odd, especially the "holographic thingy". It was heavy and not the same size as the plastic covered window. So I decided it wasn't intended to be kept with DVD box. I nearly pulled apart the outer cardboard sleeve trying to extract it from the plastic pocket at the front, and eventually managed to get it out with the rest of the packaging just about in one piece. It is now attached to my fridge (the back is magnetic) where it is going to give me far more amusement that stuck on a shelf with the DVDs.

I too found the Adelaide DVD hard to get out of the box.

For the past 4 nights I have watched a DVD every night. They are all great. Its a funny feeling, because in the morning I get disappointed that the newspaper hasnt written anything about the great game last night!

Surely the paper could put knock up an article reliving the final series ...

Thanks Liz.
I was too scared to rip the box apart.
It looks like it was meant to come out.

i couldn't find details of the specifics of the alternate audio commentary - what alternatives are there on the victory pack for the grand final? I didn't realise that there was a similar pack done for 2005 (I've only got the single GF DVD, so I think I might need to tell santa about that one so that I can re-live some of the 2005 moments...)

for anyone that hasn't listened to the ABC commentary, check out: AFL Audio - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation)

In particular, there was a 2 hour show done on the sunday after the grand final where they dissect the game -
The Sunday Inquisition - ABC Grandstand Sport - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation)

It looks like BigW are the stockists? Anywhere else in Sydney? Around $85?

Can anyone confirm if the GF dvd in the pack is the same as the standalone GF dvd? I know that for 2005, the GF DVD in the victory pack did NOT have the alternate commentaries, but the standalone one did.

My Victory pack 2005 has alternate commentaries.....really liked the way Rex Hunt was so biased for the Swans....and the absolutely unashamed barracking from MMM Sydney....the last ball up on the centre wing (that actually ends with Kerr missing a shot, I think).....Stevie Nicks is going...."Hatch it.. please somebody just hatch it!"

BTW I have never, ever to this day watched the losing QF. I was working that night.....Leo Barry got the worst umpiring decision ever seen in the history of AFL football....and then Goodesy got legged right in front of goal with a few seconds to go.
