Do Channel 7 actually care about showing AFL games??

[Strawb]

I will be listening to it on Triple M

[Wedgie]

I'll be playing World of Warcraft, might record the replay on Fox and watch that.

[stun72]

i just checked an online TV Guide, and it still has the footy on at 8:30. but it seems as though regional SA is getting it live, as said by a few rgional posters on here. Surely they wouldn't have it live in Ceduna but not here?

Although, is Victor Harbor regional enough?

I believe Victor Harbor isn't regional enough because their TV comes from Adelaide, whereas The Riverland and South East has an association with WIN TV, while Ceduna and West Coast have Imparja or GTS (from memory)

i would also like to agree on the fact i cannot listen to a game that kellie underwood is commentating on..
i think i saw her commentating netball once, and she still sucked!



i will either mut it or turn off a game of footy rather than listen to her..

very very big try hard! reminds me of fitzy....

[Mad Mat]

Boy I hope C7 lose the broadcast rights when the current deal ends. Why should I support keeping sport on FTA when they want to treat the supporters like crap. Surely they could run Better Homes and Gardens against Hey Hey it's Wednesday or put it up against the AFL match on C72. Then we will see what show rates better than the other. Personally I hope Foxtel is the winner in the next round of bidding for the rights. Up yours 7

Oh, and they wouldn't respond to my enquiry about tonights coverage.

[Gozu]

Foxtel can't afford to get the AFL rights themselves. That's why they're the junior partner in the group with 7 & 10.

It was live into Ceduna via Southern Cross Central Seven which broadcasts from Queensland, I sent an email to check whether it would be live or not earlier in the week and they said NO but I checked yesterday and it was changed to live so yeah happy about that, pity it wsn't every week, look forward to a new deal and it happening.

I don't know why they don't have-
7:30 Better Homes & Gardens (if they must) C7
7:30 AFL live C72
8:30 AFL Delay C7 (after BH&G)

I know it is now after the event but it was live into the Riverland last night - starting at 7-00pm so much better than most other nights. If they can do it once surely they can do it every week - they seem to have no problems come finals time either.

[jointman]

they have 2 channels on 7 hd,,,why cant the have 1 of them live for footy!!!!and the other for the other crap they show!!!

[gadj1976]

Can I vote "no" again this week?

[sapaul]

I don't know why they don't have-
7:30 Better Homes & Gardens (if they must) C7
7:30 AFL live C72
8:30 AFL Delay C7 (after BH&G)

Not allowed to show AFL on digital channels before main FTA channels or something like that.

I'm still in an area that doesn't have any of the FTA digital channels, personally reckon they should bung that woman that looks and is built like a man to digital.

Sounds easy enough, almost too easy...

[the big bang]

i'll chip in $100 from my own pocket on behalf of foxtel!

You have to wonder if this evening is really required/justified?

[tigerland09]

[Thiele]

why not chuck BH&G on the HD station

why not chuck BH&G on the HD station

Because it's way to hard to do.
