Excitement is building - Collingwood to hit the wall...

LIONS-MAGPIES GAME BROADCAST AND TELECAST NATIONALLY
The big game between the AAPT Brisbane Lions and Collingwood will be telecast live around the country on Channel 9 from 7.30pm on Thursday.

The game will also be broadcast right around the country on Triple A (98.9FM) and the ABC (612AM) in Brisbane; 3AW, Triple M and the ABC in Melbourne; 5AA and the ABC in Adelaide; 6PR, NIRS and the ABC in Perth; Radio 2 and ABC Parliamentary Network in Sydney; ABC in Canberra and Hobart; and the ABC and NIRS in Darwin.

Gates open at the Gabba at 4.55pm, with a curtain-raiser starting at 5pm between the Australian and Irish youth International Rules teams.

That's a misleading story, no live telecast in Sydney and I would put a lot of money on the NRL Footy Show being telecast before the AFL in Canberra as well.

Have a look at the two teams and their relative performances thus far(including Whizzer Cup) and tell me how it is a "big game"

Oops, silly of me, it has to be the "big game", it's the only one on.
Geez I'm dumb sometimes.

Brisbane to win by as much as they want.

And there is never any need to include the Whizzer Cup in anything.

Me thinks its a rouse but will have to wait and see

Hopefully it will be shown on Main event at the same time as 9 Melbourne shows it - that is the normal Friday night deal, but who knows on a Thursday...

Yes Westy, you are dumb. You think the only big game is when the E Girls are playing. Clearly the match of the year will be the incredibly close tussle that will be the Geelong v Swans match LOL.

They picked Rhyce Shaw I see. Must be because of his record against Brisbane ha ha. I hope he enjoys the trip, just like Lynchy did in the Granny heh heh.

Ah, the pressure's off. We've got the spoon and the draft picks all wrapped up so now I can concentrate on bagging everyone else's ar5e :)

Just hope there are not too many injuries and no reports - from either side. So there is no whinging next week.

For those of you who celebrate Easter have a great one, for those of you who don't have a great weekend. As for me, I'm getting ready to pack my purse and piss off to the Gabba!

You only have a former coach and a former full back...

Caaaaaaaarn the pies

Bout time we brought this board back on topic

The arc of ILAFL is long, but it bends towards loving AFL

Everything always comes back to loving AFL.

one day we all must call the cosmic mark

“if you gaze into the abyss, the abyss eventually reveals itself to be the Collingwood Magpies, which then gazes back at you”

I think that was Nietzsche

some lives are pointless; others score a behind. and yet with concentration of will, perhaps your life shall be scored a Goal by Time's hatted umpire
