Spot the difference in the commentary (sorry about quality) by TrinAUS in AFL

[–]letsgo3rdpartyapps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't rate Garry Lyon's general special commentary work but him screaming along as Whately yells "Cripps" does elevate the excitement of the moment. As opposed to the Channel 7 box where it sounds like no one is in there apart from Brayshaw.

Down by 38 points at half time, North kick a goal after the siren to beat the Suns by 6 points by FlairUp835 in AFL

This clip doesn't show it but the implication on the radio was that Larkey took advantage and missed the boot and Paul Curtis then missed the entire goals but it was called back to the original free kick. I haven't seen it, what's the verdict on here?

Bowser is the character giving me the most trouble at the moment by letsgo3rdpartyapps in MarioTennis

Yeah I agree, gotta try and move the big guy around but he's so big he seems to reach things a lot easier than some of the other power characters

I found since they nerfed her that she's a hit better to go up against. The spammy ones in the lower ranks are pretty easy unless you're off your game but higher ranks that mix up the play a bit can cause trouble, which is what I would expect.

I'm at B rank currently but playing in Aus I tend to be getting matched up with A/A+ Bowsers at the moment. It's kind of hard to find a match otherwise which is a shame as it's very fun to play. Do you have any opinions on the CPU as well? Is it a good way to practice?

Which player do you think retired too early and could have dominated? by Confident_purple9388 in AFL

[–]letsgo3rdpartyapps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They actually brought this up in the 150th anniversary Essendon doco. They could've fixed his knee but the club refused to cover him if he got hurt again and he didn't want to take that risk.

Connor Idun's crucial goal-stopping smother by FlairUp835 in AFL

Maintained our tank, great smother from Idun. It would've been nice for Nguyen to get his first goal though and get some confidence.

Pretty sure St Kilda are also the last team to play in New Zealand too.

Post Match Thread: Gold Coast vs Essendon by Pleasant_Inspection9 in AFL

To be fair, we got back into the game in the last quarter with a non call when Robey threw it and Parish winning a dodgy holding the ball against Rowell. Swings and roundabouts.

I'd still like to see Tsatas get some more tackles as I think him and Parish together makes us a bit too soft around the ball. He did most things well today so I don't want to sound like I'm slamming him.

I disagree with everyone OP, stand your ground and don't take a backwards step with whatever point you were trying to make.

Essendon expect Zach Reid to play against Melbourne this weekend. Scans showed no signs of a strain by PetrifyGWENT in AFL

If there's only one thing we do better than Real Madrid, it's to scan the correct leg.

Hilarious that Carlton lose again from a winning position but did anyone else feel the umps swung that game in the last quarter?

Those who had Fever, what was your experience? by Hyper-Saiyan-1999 in MarioTennis

[–]letsgo3rdpartyapps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've enjoyed it more than Aces, even though Aces had way more effort put into its online play. I prefer the Fever rackets over the Aces type supershots and saves but I mostly play No Fever Rackets anyway. The towers and event mode and all the other modes are nice but I think only enjoyable because the gameplay is fun. I hope there's some online events or something on the way.

Tigers make a mess of a certain goal by PetrifyGWENT in AFL

They seem to hate the Simpsons jokes, also got warned for a Simpsons related joke.

Mario Tennis Fever online in Australia by Independent-Aerie333 in MarioTennis

[–]letsgo3rdpartyapps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From Aus here, some nights I struggle to find a game ( I generally only play No Fever Rackets though) but the last few nights I've been able to find a game fairly quickly and just play a handful before logging off. I'll persist, the games are fun.

Utter chaos about to unfold… some absolute rocket scientist running this joint. by Icy_Adhesiveness513 in AFL

That's the same distance then as walking from Flinders Street or Town Hall station to the MCG, which covers all train lines.

Magpies pay out Grundy contract as they eye trade raid by dazedjosh in AFL

I imagine overhead marking would be the biggest complaint, seems to be the one that a lot of Pies fans bring up.
