Hey guys

Just looked on AFL.com.au and they are not showing the channel 7 telecast of the Dees V Hawks, instead showing the foxtel game of Brisbane, Adelaide...

To make it even worse...the replay is not on till 11.45pm!!

WHAT THE HELL!!

way it works interstate my friend... i live in Perth and we didn't get the Geelong v Collingwood game last week... instead got the battle for the spoon on both foxtel and channel 10... would've been furious if I were a cats or pies supporter...

This happens all the time.

I don't mind that they show Brisbane games as we are in Brisbane, but it means the Brisbane game is on fox and 7 at the same time and we get shafted all together. For other time slots, like Friday and Saturday night they will air the non-televised game on the Main Event channel, but for some reason they don't do it for Sunday games. We should be able to watch each game somewhere, whether it be free to air, fox sports, or main event.

So I will be avoiding the Internet, any news, text messages etc, until the replay on fox sports at 7.

Agreed! Think it's time whoever makes the airing decisions needs a good rocket up the whatsit! There is no reason why they can't show the game on Main Event!

Not happy, Jan!!!!

So hopefully with the new TV rights up for sale soon, we could see OneHD getting the game that 7 doesn't want to air (and vice versa)? Or a FTA channel airing the Friday night game on Friday night (as opposed to Saturday morning)?

(on a related note, I've found the EPG for One horrible. Advertised Geelong v. Collingwood last week, showed WC v. Brisbane. Rubbish.)

As mentioned on another thread, I thought this crap was sorted out in the last TV deal. Every game should be seen live OR near live anywhere in Australia using the combination of channel 10, channel 7 & Foxtel. Obviously not.

This SHOULD be rectified in the next deal (we hope).

Second that, but unfortunately, the wait is until 7.30pm.......

Throw me a pm if your in the 'Lets show the same game on Fox and Channel Seven' crap basket and have a decent internet connection.

There could be a way ;-)

It absolutely sucks when the footy is not televised, especially for us country supporters who dont have the opportunity to attend the game itself. Back to the dark old ages of radio waves. Better than nothing though... :huh:

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
