Honest opinions here ...
I live in Denmark and see little footy on TV. As some of you may remember I also coach a team of Danish kids and we wear Richmond jumpers when we play games. So when I lend out DVDs of AFL games to these kids, I try to promote the Tigers by giving them Richmond wins. Last year I bought the DVDs of our more memorable wins (Port, Carlton, Collingwood, Brisbane). I have bought the Brisbane game from last week. My question is ... should I get the Carlton one, too?
OK, many of you have panned the game and so have the media. But some of you have also said it was quite entertaining nevertheless, particularly in the first half.
I would appreciate genuine comments here and no sarcasm from the darksiders, or anyone else !!!
 
I look forward to watching the game again.  AFL isn't only about skill and although Friday night's game lacked in that department it was an enthralling contest between two evenly matched, very determined teams.
It was a very fast flowing and exciting game and both teams gave their all until the final siren and it showed sheer determination can get you over the line.
 
Anything on DVD with a Tiger win is must to see, but in your case I suggest you chain yourself to the seat because it's pretty frustrating.

This DVD is not suitable for children, it is a very poor reflection on how the game should be played and if the kids are to watch it, I recommend you get the parents consent. :hihi
 
What, from last night's game?

For educational purposes?

Hey yeh. A Basil Fawlty version of how NOT to play footy.  ;)
 
Because we have the affiliation to sell dvd's through the link on PRE I get regular updates from SportsLimited.  I had an e-mail advising me our game was available to purchase on DVD before I got back home from watching it live.  They're certainly quick off the mark.
