 Channel 7 set to call AFL games from remote bunker to adhere to social distancing rules

Channel 7 is confident viewers won’t notice a significant difference in its revamped AFL coverage, which will include commentating games without being at the venue.

fox sports has been doing it for years during the escort community service cup

makes no difference - a lot of them are still terrible play-by-play and 'special' commentators

fox generally has a body on the ground so it'll be interesting to see whether 7 do

is bruce going to be calling from a bunker in adelaide while the others are in melbourne?

    the Crows training saga could have serious consequences. AFL are talking premiership points and/or suspensions according to Caroline Wilson talking on 3aw.

    She also let on that clubs were told that a player breaking social distancing laws could look at a season long suspension.

    Wow that’s ramped up!!

    I heard a News Report this afternoon where it was said that nothing would happen. I am glad things have changed. 
     

    I am sick of Sportsman setting their own agendas. 
    social Distancing is 1.5 metres

    Deal with it

    the SA Police let them off with a warning but the AFL penalty is yet to be decided. I suspect that it will be financial only but Gil may wish to stamp his authority. Suspension of the coaching staff involved could be the halfway house.

    Hehe a big penalty will go a long way towards easing the supposed Vic-bias tensions!

    WA Premier keeps on saying they wont lift the border restrictions so no idea of when WA may open.

    The plus is that they have as I understand been letting in fifo mining workers all along so there is some precendence for exceptions.

    WCE v Richmond or Collingwood at Perth would be  a nice opening round game

    Not doing themselves any favours, especially if they want to lobby to move the GF in future.

    I’m not sure if this has already been discussed but with the NT pushing their case saying they can have crowds I wonder whether (like the Suns) we’re pushing to still play our usual Alice Springs game this year. Would people here be supportive of it?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

      Gather Round is upon us and the Demons face off against the Bombers who are on a 17 game losing streak. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
