Nothing on TV (unless you've got Fox, which by the way their new Fox Footy channel started today). I don't really feel like watching footy this early on TV anyway, save my appetite for the real season.

$22 or whatever it is to go and watch, bit expensive for a bunch of trial games.

The clubs don't really care about the "cup" they just use them as trials.

But I still like the 3 club match-ups in the first round. Short games against 2 teams gets the teams back into footy and more practice against different teams and you get to see 3 matches. I will probably go to the Crows-Port-Carlton match.

There's still that $200,000 for the winner, so there's some incentive to give it a go if they're going well.

And Fox Footy is great so far this year. The HD is brilliant, can't wait to watch every match in HD and not have to put up with SD ones!
