Is anyone else irritated about the fact that the game against Freo won't be on free to air TV while at the same time not covered by any radio station in Melbourne? Yet the Brisbane vs Essendon* game which is on free to air TV will be covered by not one radio station but three. Surely one of the three could cover the Carlton game?

One word....wankers, both the radio/tv stations and Essendon* for that matter

AW is covering the Freo vs Blues Match and also will be live on Foxtel

cheers

Hope you're right - I'm on AW now and they haven't crossed over yet..

It doesn't start for 2 hours...

it's definitely on AW and foxtel.

Congratulations CK95

coverage for the Freo / Blues starts at 7.00PM on AW though they will prob do a preview befor hand

cheers guys

think you can also get it on some link as a stream

The streaming link on afl.com is now 6pr.....

I got my time zones mixed up - was getting a bit anxious - alright now - half an hour to go..

I don't know if there's a problem.....the only minus is no FTA TV coverage; it's pretty normal for a game at this time over there apart from that isn't it?

Just going by what was in the paper. Happy to be wrong.

The commentaters are horrible.

I love having Fox Footy. No ads after a goal. Decent coverage during the game.

Sadly the commentators aren't fit to scrape the cowshit off a dairy farmer's boots.

I had the comfort of Fox Footy until they were 20 odd points down in the first quarter.

We're finally on FTA next week:

Ten's Saturday Night AFL

7.30pm - 11pm TEN
Saturday 15 April 2006
Round three. Carlton Blues v Sydney Swans. From Telstra Dome, Melbourne.

What staggers me is that the majority of viewers on Fox will clearly be Victorian, and Blue baggers, and the bias of Wilson, et al, was shocking. It was not about the blues good play, but about the Shcokers bad, etc, etc.

They really ought to think about their audience.

Maybe the new TV "season" starting next year will herald changes in the commentating arena, especially in the Fuxtel area if pressure is applied by 7/10.

Disgraceful commentary--
Foz have 3 A listers in Grybas, Carey and Healy-- its a shame htey cant be used for all their matches.
Gossage is a disgrace, Campbell cant string a sentence together and dont get me started on Wilson.
Expect big changes next season...

At least we didn't have to put up with KB. He's the worst.
