yes, but other advertisers will just fill the space.

dont watch it and their numbers go down, and then no one wants to buy advertising space then.

    Is there anyone in NSW who can put channel 7 on some ustream channel for the match because I am pretty sure it's going live into Sydney.

    No... we in Sydney are getting the delayed coverage as well. The reason it's starting at 3pm is because there's live coverage of touring car racing that's timed to finish at 3pm. This isn't the first time that this has happened - I recall a similar situation a few years ago - the difference then was that they went live to the AFL and so we missed almost a full half of the game.

    Being a Sunday afternoon game Channel 7 has to play thier mandatory Sunday Afternoon Elvis Presley movie...usually it's Blue Hawaii or It happened at the Worlds Fair..

    I'll be in Perth for a wedding so whist working off the hangover i'll watch most of the Dees live then head to Subiaco to watch Freo and the Kangas...

    Not a bad sunday coming up!

    HaHaHa, fantastic. HeaveHo, HiHo, Freo! :)

    To Broadcast in HD costs more money...More Ads. The TV stations only make money during september. The Home and Away they only go close to Breaking even.

    So as bad as it is Ch 7 will run ads to the max as much as they liked because the Footy cost them a lot.

    The next Broadcast deal could be worse if it hits a $ Billion. (That is a lot of 30 second spots)

    Thanks WYL for bringing some knowledge and common sennse to this emotional thread.

    I for one DO Not, want Pay TV. It's not what I grew up with and I don't believe its the Austrtalian egalitarian way. There would be many who could not afford to buy pay tv, so would miss many games.

    I won't get it on principle, and don't like anything about ch9 anyway. They always white-anted other channels personel and tv shows etc, and try to make themselves out as not only the one, but the only one.. Buying allegences.

    I coudn't stand old packer, nor his son.

    Now the same goes for e,d. mmm.

    here e,d try this, you seem to need it lately! >>> http://www.amiaustra...taxonomy/term/7

    Whenever Channel 7 or 10 delay the footy I simply delay it a further 40 minutes and fast forward all their ads and half time coverage. I absolutely refuse to watch ads if they choose to delay the footy. It's that simple.

    Channel 9 will be exactly the same as 7 and 10 and frankly I don't think you can blame any of the stations. Imagine paying that much for the rights and then having to telecast the round 1 St Kilda V Geelong game. If that game was live Channel 7 would've lost a fortune 12 goals (6 mins of ads) in 100 minutes of TV/football would destroy any profit.

    I remember a similar situation where I tuned into the delayed coverage and for the first half they just ran highlights for 10 minutes then flicked to live coverage when the second half started....

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
