Chatham Cup 2014

For those not supporting a particular team, you want to join me and Smithy in sitting in Block 5?

Bloc 5 isn't for sitting.

Bring the Big Flag. Please.

It's in storage at the moment, and it's pretty heavy. I have booked a no bag seat so I'd need to rebook/pay extra to bring it... I don't have the pole for it any more either (it was a 5 metre aluminium tub in two parts)...

I'll be in the Bloc with Smithy and Dale too.

^ Bugger! Shame about the flag. Oh well...

Ha. Only busting he's done to my knowledge was Jeff Fleming's ankle in the Chatham Cup 2 years ago.

You should pop in for a beer after the game and introduce yourself to Danny Boys, I'm pretty sure he is keen to shout you one!

Quality that they are streaming it. Hopefully it's a decent stream too.

2.80 for central to win?  That's tasty

Pat Fleming?

A couple of stories in The Pres today on the Chatham Cup - this time with links, one a great talk with one of Tech's greats - Billy Weir.

don't do it JD, cashmere are gonna roll 'em

Must be some $$$ going onto Cashmere, they shortened in over last 24 hours quite a bit. Or the TAB has some inside info.....

Or they watched the last couple of games....

Note though that NZ Football sent out an incorrect link for the streaming that all the media have been repeating - there are some letters wrong in the address.

Here is the actual link:

It's free of course.

Hope it's a good quality stream and we get some other domestic footie online in future such as ASB Premiership.

Shambles at the back for Central.

Tade FC strikes.

Good solid stream and commentary.

The lack of replays is a tad annoying tho

Camera work (or selection) is fairly ordinary at times also

Central's keeper is a bit flappy.

To be honest I can't really see much of a difference to the camera work here and the A League.

The commentary is miles better than Fred and Andrew :)

It is their 3rd choice keeper tbf.

It's really getting annoying. The camera in the corner behind Cashmere's goal isn't a good angle for anything. Why they keep switching to it whenever Central attack and then change just as someone shoots is beyond me!

I don't mind the goal line cameras, gives a good view of attacks. The one thing I have noticed is they are a bit tighter in on the sideline camera shots, I prefer a little wider shot so you can see more of the game.

Poor defending for that goal.

Aha, didn't realise that.

Keeper got questions to answer for both Cashmere's goals. That one was no more than 4 yards out

Where are all the Auckland football supporters? Place is empty.

According to my computer there's only 853 watching the live stream so they're not sitting at home on their computers

enjoyable game so far.  hopefully tech run away with it

i'm enjoying the commentary - is that chris milicich?  i heard him mention he was a keeper

and the stream is very good

It's a shame as it looks like a really nice day too.

Yep, Chris Milicich, good lad. Stream is good for sure

Good game to watch. Nice Feed.  Well Done to Cash Tech on winning the game today!

Well done Cashmere.

Great to see this on live streaming.. big ups to everyone who organised it and I hope it's a feature that's here to stay.

player of the match???

Stu Kelly my pick

Yeah i was thinking Stu or Aaron Clapham. Really controlled the middle of the park, that was where it was won
