Friday - AEST - ie Melbourne time

1440 Coll v Ess

1745 St K v Lions

2045 Freo v NM

This is my best effort.

Any changes needed?

Yep the Freo game is the correct time for Vic

The AFL live app on my IPhone tells me the starting time in "MY TIME" this year. Much easier.

tor01doc · April 24, 2014, 07:19:52 PM

Yes. Thank you.

That helps us a lot. ::)

Can confirm NZ is 2 hours ahead of AEST so 19:45 local time is 17:45 AEST.

I would think a doctor would have access to a smart phone or tablet with the AFL live app? No need to work it out for yourself.
Couldn't be any easier.....

Hate apps as much as I hate unhelpful people. :P

Bones Bombers · April 24, 2014, 08:11:57 PM

Probably as much as I hate difficult people :P

Don't smash the mirror then Mr Helpful.

There really needs to be a *sit back and grab the popcorn* smilie for times like this.

Doc, I don't know how old you are therefore what level of technoliteracy to expect and what era of med you will have been through, but you're gonna have to embrace apps sooner or later my friend. The number of medical related apps currently out there is scary, mainly because they're 99.99% trash. But people embrace the likes of WebMD, despite it suggesting cancer at a rate that rivals Greg House with lupus. Why just the other day the handy tool in the sports store was able to reliably inform me that my BP was 283/170. That's normal right? :P You're gonna have to get to grips with them just to stay ahead of the curve of stupidity they create...
