To my suprise I have now heard that Foxtel will be showing 7 of the 9 games live, free to air will get Friday and Saturday nights only. I believe Foxtel will offer the rights to some matches to the commercial stations but they wont be live. Effectively without foxtel you will only be able to see a couple of live games a week and a couple of delayed matches each week. Not sure about Crows/Power as I believe it is some sort of deal to show them live on commercial stations for away matches.

It won't happen anyway. Half the games will be on free to air as they are now.

It's not just cost. I live in a strata complex where it's just not feasible to install.
It took years just to get people to agree on the installation of a TV antenna on the roof and cabling in the building just to get decent reception for FTA, got buckleys of getting Foxtel in here.
