Having the first empty stadium game at ANZ Stadium kind of lubes up the entry.

Remis Smith - Why didn't you play like this last week!

 

[Xcalibre]

This feels like a training run/friendly.

 

[GreenMachine121]

Poor dwz is making a great fist of a fullback or getting fisted or something

 

[johns_reds]

It is weird no cheer when they score, not sure if I’ll get used to that

 

[Vic Mackey]

The no crowds isn’t really an issue on TV, is it.

not at ANZ, at others it will look weird

 

[blue bags]

no loud clapping with that try, only the doggies fans clapping tonight

 

[GreenMachine121]

Lol didn’t he kick that ?

 

[Misanthrope]

The no crowds isn’t really an issue on TV, is it.

No, but the game is terrible as a television product. The AFL's big bragging rights point has always been their amazing crowds and how great the game is live.

Take those away and it's a bunch of dudes failing to hold onto a ball while getting a point for missing.

 

[King hit]

The AFL is f**ked. The one selling point every AFL fan tries to push on me is how it is a fantastic game live. Take away the crowds and you're left with the shitty TV product.

I’ve seen it live before and it still sucks

THIS. Wasn't looking @ the screen, heard "Cowboys have responded".. was like I didn't hear the crowd tho......

 

[TheVelourFog]

let someone else kick for goal ffs

 

[shear_joy9]

Just because you sign a guy on a fat $1mill contract doesn’t mean you have to make him the kicker as well

 

[Xcalibre]

Lol didn’t he kick that ?

I thought so

 

[Pete Cash]

I'm pitching an idea to the raiders to have skeepes posts just yelled into the stadium on a megaphone

 

[Misanthrope]

Unsurprised. Shit sport.

 

[GongPanther]

i just heard some clapping from the ground

The applause machine from the Don Lane Show.

 

[blue bags]

How long until they insert fake crowd noise in to the broadcast?

they do at rabbits games

 

[GreenMachine121]

This is kinda shit to be honest haha

I said similar before, but someone from staff of each team with a loudspeaker. They can throw in a few of the best comments from LU.
