Tv for me.

I'll be watching the dogs v warriors game before hand.

But if there was no game b4 on ,it would of been hard not to resist the radio.

i used to be like that, expect i would always check the live scores on the net. but i havent dont it all this year and im planning to keep it that way because for me it wrecks the game.

i like to watch the game, more excitement in watching it. but sometimes i can't help and wait if they game isn't live, i need to know if we won or not, so i check the net for live scores. Tomorrow i'll watch the game and not find out scores before the game is on tv.

If I was unable to attend the match tomorrow night, I would be faced with the same dilemma. I'm not sure what I would have done to be totally honest. I probably wouldn't have resisted the temptation of listening to the radio, but I would have most likely been patient & watched the delayed telecast on Channel 9. Radio coverage is just as good as the television coverage, except for the 'true' visual barrier.

I think i have made my decision.....i will wait and watch the game....if it wasnt for the match b4 i wouldnt be waiting..that will keep me busy....but once i start watching and it ends up a close game or a white wash...i will check that radio which will be standing by..lol :D

Hehe nice work Missa! :D I think I'll do the same... I always try not to check the scores on the radio, but (especially when its a blow out scoreline), I just CAN'T resist!!! :lol:

Radio for me, I'm not waiting till 2:05AM too find out

Gee Ch9 doesn't have the AFL finals for the rest of the year, but they still won't show the Knights game at a decent time slot :evil:

LMAO haha Missa I did exactly the same... I felt really guilty as I crept over to the radio and found the right station, but I just couldnt wait... especially when the scoreline looked like it was going to blow out so much!
