2021 Swans Academy thread

Thought I'd check the functionality of the NAB League app, before the game starts. Currently, there's four games being played. Of these, one game doesn't seem to have a link and another has a link, that so far, has just resulted in error messages. With the two games that can be accessed, neither has commentary or a scorebox. So, I'll be surprised if we get anything but a bare bones coverage.

Also, it seems that the links can only be accessed from the top of the home page, rather than the fixtures section. I thought maybe the fixtures would give some live stats, but that doesn't appear to be the case.

Quarter of an hour in and the only thing that the link to our game has generated, is error messages. Grrr.

Its only our game that's not working too : (

Yes, I've been occasionally checking the link, while watching the Suns v Cats game. Still nothing but an error message. What's even more annoying, is that back in 2019, the coverage was both on YouTube and the NAB League app. There was also live stats on both the NAB League app and the Footy Live app. Now we've just got a cone of silence.

We are leading 68 to 57 at the end of the third quarter. Scores are available on the Gippsland Power game day site.

Some stats on the hastily arranged game v GWS can be found on afl.draftcentral - regulars Felix Rogers, Pierce Roseby and Angus Anderson mentioned as key players. Result was Giants 69 Swans 63.

There seems to be an academy game today, at 9.30am v Tasmania. There's a link on the Swans academy Facebook page, and I assume that you would also be able to find it on YouTube.
Unfortunately, some of the academy members that most caught my attention, in the little bit that I've seen: Anderson, Pfrengle and Edwards aren't in the named side. However there is a Longmire named in the forward line, so I'm wondering if that's one of John's sons? Hopefully it is and he'll put in a performance good enough, to take John's mind off last night's debacle.

It seems that the "Live Stream" icon on the Swans academy facebook page, is just redundant page decoration, rather than an actual link. Grrrr. Though I am assuming that the game did start at 9.30am. The listed start time on the page is 9T.30am, which may not actually be 9.30?

[dejavoodoo44]

Thought I'd check the Nab League app, in the off chance that they're live streaming it. They are.

Final Score 88-84 to Tasmania. Swans academy lead at all the breaks but couldnt hold on. Thought it was a pretty scrappy game . Rossman 31 disposals and was probably best for me.

Longmire is son of John. Has been in the academy for a while now but often injured.

Pfrengle and Edwards out with longer term injuries. Anderson not sure.

Yes, I ended up watching the second and third quarters, and a few minutes here and there of the fourth. I also liked the game of Rossman. I thought Rogers played very well, in the bit that I saw.

I could see a certain amount of family resemblance with young Longmire, and I liked his tackling efforts and the way he went in hard.

with young Longmire, and I liked his tackling efforts and the way he went in hard.

Those attributes were presumably non-negotiable if he wanted to remain part of the Longmire family.

Yes, it may have been mentioned over the dinner table, once or twice.
