In: Baker, Pickett, M.Rioli
Out: Blight, Trezise, Coulthard (all omitted)
Source: RFC twitter.

Trecize omitted seems crazy.
-
Last game who cares.
Trezise was horrible imo. Hopefully can improve this off season along with the rest of the youngsters
-
Lmao - Treshyte re-signed then dropped #placeholder :shh
-
Absolutely nothing to be gained playing Baker
-
Think the three outs has a bit to do with the vfl.
I think most of our kids when played have struggled a lot at times.
I think most have given enough glimpses to be persevered with.

I’d like to see him play 1 last time in the yellow and black if he’s sailing off into the sunset afterwards which I firmly believe he is.

We are going to miss out on pick 1. Bookmark it

WGAF about pick 1.. Such a loser mentality.. How many pick 1s have found and led teams to great success? What's the success rate percentage?
Dusty was never pick 1, not even Cotchin was. Such overrated BS

Has the match time been pushed back to 3:20?
-
Has the match time been pushed back to 3:20?
Yes going by the AFL website
Due to an electrical dispute the game in Launceston is starting earlier and ours has been pushed back.
Just received a text message from the Club
-
Typical. One chance of 210pm game on a Saturday stuffed up
-
Why does the an issue with a match in Tassie , effect the start time for our game ?

So the matches don't clash or overlap which would upset the broadcasters who pretty much finance the competition.... :shh

Only one part of that needs correcting
The broadcasters do finance the competition
No broadcaster money, no professional competition
A pretty simple fact that most people neglect to take notice of

Game has been pushed back by an hour. Seriously, so what! People can really whinge…..

Makes my life easier to tbh

The issue is electrical workers in Tassie are on strike so if the lights were to out at the ground they can't be fixed
So our game got moved not ot the other game on at the same time down at Geelong
While I get how much money the broadcasters put into the game not all decisions made about the game should not solely be about appeasing the broadcasters
Broadcasters want crowds, it enhances their product, empty stadiums don't

And delaying the game by an hour will make a massive difference to the crowd?

Yes it will impact crowd numbers at 2 games and possibly 3 if you count the NRL game across the road that I know a number of Tiger fans were going to at the completion of 2.10pm AFL game.
We weren't going to get a massive crowd anyway but this will decrease the number no doubt.
-
I wouldn’t think it will make a difference in crowd size to the volume of effecting TV aesthetics
-
If you haven't got anything else on or were just watching the game on foxtel , it wouldn't matter of course , as it doesn’t effect you .

Funny you mention aesthetics
For the past 2 weeks while we've been at comic book stadium, the top level of GA seating on the broadcast side was closed and people were directed to opposite side to improve the look of the crowd for TV purposes

Righto
Simple way to put it WP
What size crowd are you expecting?
And what size crowd would you have expected?

Original time 40k-45k
Now 35k maybe

I’m heading up, it’s a great day weather and excited for the game. Not so much the game itself but moreso to farewell some champs.

Why? Kids sport finishes around 1ish, I’d be thinking a few families might be rocking up / lovely day to farewell a once a generation talent plus a triple premiership player.
-
Why?
Multiple reasons, not limited too
Regional travels becomes harder, later finish means late trip home, some won't bother
Some people will have made evening plans expecting the game to finish before 5pm
But whatever, ot will be what it will be
Will happily put my hand up and say I was wrong if they get a big crowd today
-
Great to see so many young kids here, early afternoon football makes it accessible for the little kids

Picture perfect day for footy. Weather couldn’t be any better.
