Cricket is over for the year. The World Cup is dusted. That means real footy is back for 20 odd weeks, and not before time.

Early week injury updates, over thinking, rumours, opposition analysis, training, team selection (inc. argument of) and game day - week, after week.

It's back!

Can't wait. Even looking forward to the opener on Thursday Night. What's the latest with the Good Friday debate? Are they planning a game next year. Whether we're involved or not, I think we are due for Good Friday Night Footy.

Yep....the wait for footy has been near on unbearable.

Its a shame that after the Thursday opener, there is no footy Friday....but I'm hanging out for Saturday night.

Will be leaving the family 170ks down the road on Saturday night for the game, so I dare say the result of the game will have a pretty big say in how enjoyable the 2 and a bit hour late night drive back down to the country is, after the match!

With everything that has happened, Shocktober, list turnover - 6 draftees, 3 trades or DFA, 2 rookie promotions, 2 new rookies, 2 players re-rookied or rookied from senior list, new coach, new playing style and capped off by our pretty reasonable NAB Cup form, I am more keyed up for the start of this season than I think I have been for decades.

Yep, can't wait. I'm going Thursday night with a mate, it's been a tradition for about 7 years now that we go to the first match (in Melbourne) of the year. I'll be there Saturday night as well.

You could listen on the radio but its not the same thing as watching the actual game.

You have foxtel then you should be able to download Foxtelgo and watch it on your device (whatever that may be)

Foxtel Go does not provide Fox Footy ...or didn't throughout the NAB Challenge.

Just had a look on internet and it appears that telstra has the rights (2013 -2017) to stream AFL not foxtel.

1eyedog has started one for this year. If anyone is keen I've set one up. Free entry and available to WOOF posters only. Thinking about a small prize to the winner, perhaps Bulldogs merchandise or something. Less than 48 hours to sign up and get your tips in.

Anyone have any idea if the full match replays will be up on the AFL site this year like they were last year. Fairly disheartened they are trying to push you into purchasing AFL live

My first blog this year is about why we're just as excited about the season as flag contenders, and why footy matters (from my point of view at least as a supporter born into a family of three generations of Dogs' fans.)

Looks like you can keep signing up for free trials with different email addresses and cancelling before the trial ends
I got a 4 week trial before the NAB cup, cancelled after the Collingwood game and just signed up again for a 2 week trial
