    Yes I know you reading this Demetriou.
     
    At the very least split the games more evenly and get channels 10 and 7 to show games. There wasn't even any radio coverage.

    Not only that, looked where the games were played....Darwin & Gold Coast on the same wkend, and then next week both games are in Adel and Syd meaning that no games at all in Melb (the hub of AFL footy, and I live in SA and even know this).
     
    Just plan silly by the AFL

    I had the Essendon/Fremantle game live here in Detroit, the hotbed of Aussie Rules.

    Seems like it's just another excuse to give Collingwood and Sydney another important game on the AFL calendar

    Well said Rod.  What are you going to do for an aviator 'if' the Kings don't come back....maybe you could start following the Razorbacks

    Don't get me started on 'Live' TV!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
     
    Fucking game sold out here in Adel tonight....but hang on!  Channel 7 plays the game on delayed replay an hour after it started.  And again, like mentioned before regarding delayed TV, two weeks ago in Adel on a Sunday the Ess Vs Carl game started at 3pm, even though obviously the game was played in Melb and started 1.40pm Adel time.
     
    And gman...same deal for you tonight, the only reason why you are only on a half hr time delay is simply due to time zones, and not because Channel 7 are looking after their football TY watchers. Game started at 8.10pm your time, and thus started at 8.30 on TV, hence the time difference, and thus the time delay of half hr!!!!!!!!
     
    Really would like to know if anyone havsideas on how I (for the good of all people) can change this stupid TV coverage to times that are more suitable to lovers of football like us????????

    perths the same ..games start at 540 perth time( 740 EST) i dont even watch footy on friday and saturday nights because none are live as i usually need to be following them to get half time scores.( for 2nd half lines and cause i like to know how my picks are doing without delay)..we get a live game on saturday at 12.00 and 11am on sundays..usually about 3 are on delay.
    with perth they cant change the friday night live coverage because the news is on till 6. but with the saturday night games at 530 when the game is about to start they show before the game then show the game at 630 so delayed by a hour. all they have to do is not show before the game and we can get the games live on saturdays.

    Miracle, I realise that is why the game is shown half an hour late, but they could start it 8pm instead of 8.30pm coverage?  I think they like the 1/2 past hour start for tv scheduling of other shows such as the great outdoors or whatever it is they have on
