    Due to the coverage of Live NRL, Tri Nations and English Premier League and our commitment to Live sport, we were forced to join the Premier League in progress after the AFL had concluded. These were exceptional circumstances and a situation where live sports already in progress had to take precedence over the AFL post game.

    We have included the post match coverage in the replay on Wednesday Foxsports 1 @ 930am.

    Regards,
    Foxsports

        Hmmm. Fair enough, but too little, too late.

                Bull@@@@, they went from one live event to another and the other was an"english" game of soccer not our national sport.

                They knew full well that this game was a send off and they would require at least 10 minutes to wrap it up and see the boys off the ground.

                Could have swapped the coverage over to Fox Sports News channel and scrolled on the screen at the bottom the change of channel to let everyone know.

                Lazy, lazy, lazy from Fox Sports.

                    I understand other people watch soccer (why I don't know) and that fox decided they were as important as the afl (also why I don't know). Silly really - we all know its godsowngame, and apparently they don't.

                        A very astute point. They got caught with their pants down.
