    I was able to watch the Carlton - Brisbane game live in Sydney.

    I have a 93 element UHF antenna pointing to Wollongong to get around this crap with delayed telecasts as they sometimes broadcast live to regional NSW.

    I don't know why the AFL doesn't stream it live from their website. They can still put all the ads in to keep the commercial sponsors happy.

    Even if they charged $50 for the season I reckon they would get enough takers.

        does anyone know if the Brownlow will be televised live on Foxtel?
        I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not so sure..................

            I'm assuming it will be on 518 as it is being delayed into NSW and Queensland on Channel 7. 8pm Melbourne time in Vic, SA, WA, Tas and NT, 11:40pm delay into NSW and Qld

                Mainevent is 518 isnt it? - hopefully it will be - but knowing our luck they will put on the woeful Wrestling instead.

Remember that when Fox do this, their channel is being broadcast country-wide, it's their feed, and the FTA coverage on delay is due to the arrangement to show the team into its local market, in spite of the national network not covering the game at all...
                    Not so Mike - for example when Seven shows a non-swans game late on Friday nights in Sydney Foxtel gets to show it live into Sydney. It could be argued that ONE is fundamentally the same.

                    The very first thing the current "anti-siphoning" review should do is classify the new digital channels as "FTA" (in the anti-siphoning" sense). What better way to hasten the uptake of digital reception.

                        Exactly.
