SA Footy

I think it is a disgrace that Channel 10 is not Showing the football live on Thursday night. Here have Cousins vs Judd and we have to wait until the BIGGEST LOSSER is finished an hour Delayed

Well thats the type of rubbish TV coverage we get out here, but wont worry me Thursday night i'll be there.

seeya there

Channel 10 asked the AFL to show it live. But The AFL requested it is at least an hour delayed.

Interstate as well??

All the free to air networks are terrible they rarely show live games, I remember seven last year on a sunday showing a 50 year old movie in favour of live footy, the norm for seven is an hour and a half delay.

Live games = Less adverts

Ditto, ground level in the Pontsford stand.
Hope you got your tickets Braddy boy as the only ones left are the Great Southern Stand nosebleed section.

Level 1 in the AFL members for me..
I have tickets for Thursday / Friday night and the most important game of the weekend.. the Crows on Saturday...
I Can't wait for the footy!!

I have given up watching footy on Free To Air TV.. Except when the Crows are playing and I have no choice...
I prefer to listen to the footy live, especially on a Friday night and wish Foxtel would get all 8 games, so we can have it live all the time... No Adds during the footy and a better camera coverage and commentators.

Well on Sunday 7HD had a blck and white movie on instead of the V8s. I had to watch it on Standard Def. What is the point of that. I bet nobody watched the movie.

Live in Perth for a while, then you'll know about delayed telecasts.

They even delay matches that involve the Eagles or Dockers.

I thought 10 would be showing it live on their new ONE HD channel? As this game is the launch of it...

Surely it's live!!!!

At least they put the decent team on live.

Just checked up on the Roos coverage this year since we usually see 2 or 3 games a year and we're not doing too bad. These are the games getting shown in Adelaide on Free-to-air TV.

Rd 5 Vs Richmond
Rd 6 Vs Collingwood
Rd 7 Vs Port
Rd 8 Vs Geelong
Rd 9 Vs Freo
Rd 10 Vs Brisbane
Rd 12 Vs Adelaide
Rd 13 Vs Western Bulldogs
Rd 18 Vs Carlton
Rd 19 Vs Melbourne
Rd 22 Vs Port

Due to the ******* stupid politicians who devised the anti-syphoning laws of certain sports, AFL is on the anti-syphoning list, which means that Channel 10 cannot show it earlier on ONE, as it'd be seen as syphoning it away from the normal Channel 10 which is available to everyone. I hope that makes sense, as my explanation is a bit

When I saw the TV Guide I couldn't believe it. Absolute disgrace.

Surely we arent suprised?

This has been happening on Friday nights for years
