        Foxtel bended over.
        Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.
        Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones who let in the light.

            They were always going to come to the party.....

            Pay TV made the mistake once before of believing that they determine what programmes people want instead of listeninjg to their customers. They got hurt badly when they lost the TV racing coverage rights. The fall out from the loss of AFL in it's entirety from Foxtel would have just about signalled the end of Pay TV in Australia.

            Without exception, every person that I know eho has foxtel does it for the footy and cricket. Given that the cricket is often played at ridiculous time sof the night, AFL is the one thing that keeps them interested.

              This is the most retrograde step that has happened to the AFL during the fat controllers watch. Not only does he keep tinkering with the rules, but now is allowing less AFL on FTA than before, allowing only 25% of the population to see half of the games each week. What a ridiculous bloody joke.

                FTA is available to 100% of the population.

                  Pay Tv is only available to 25%. With the Swans being on many early games on a Sunday this year, we ain't going to see any of those on FTA if we are outside NSW.

                  Anyone want to pay for Austar at my place?

                    How's it a retrograde step? It's how it's been for the past couple of years and better than it was before that.

                      The satellite coverage is better than you think.

                        Foxtel is available for most of the population it's just a question of whether you want to pay for it.

                        As I've been saying this is a great outcome for NSW and Queensland footy fans and a good business outcome for Foxtel in Vic, SA and WA.

                        What makes you think the early Sunday game won't be on FTA?

                        Remember Channel 7 is stuck with the V8s next year so they will have to figure something out with their scheduling such as early footy then V8s from about 3.30. (I hated the Channel 7 12.30 starts by the way).

                          Perhaps the 2 greatest opponents to Pay TV could spend less time on this website posting rubbish and spend that time working and earn an extra $50 a month.

                          They could then watch football whenever they wanted.

                              I have other entertainment that I'd rather spend my money on.
