Why is the Grand Final Replay being shown at MIDNIGHT. If they are going to put crap like a fat redhead and a bald has been on at 9:30 instead of what could/will be the game of the year. If they arent showing it live or close to, move aside and let the footy public view it on Fox Footy

Impossible is not a fact, it's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration, it's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing! -
All of this is the responsability of the AFL. They went the money and not the development. And we are all paying for it. -
Surely the game could have at least been shown straight after the Footy Show, not midnight, that is ridiculous. That was a bit like Channel 10 showing the Formula 1 Grand Prix's at 2am. It just stinks.The Destructive Dan Experience - Featuring Teal.

Can you blame the AFL. Its not really a money thing. Isnt there a law preventing foxtel to get preference of the World Cup etc. Its not a money thing just tight assed upper class nine pricks. If my assumptions are correct. Either way, if you arent showing a game of that calliber live or at a reasonable time slot, bugger off and let someone else eg.

It should be quite simple. If the primary broadcaster (9 or 10) is not showing the game, Foxtel should. It's not rocket science, AFL. Money grubbing tools who went for the big dollar.
I think it's time that we humble fans take back our sport. Who's with me? We'll storm the citadel!We hate Anthony Rocca
We hate Shannon Grant too
We hate scumbag Gaspar

Begs the question...
Will the come a time when the Grand Final will be a Foxtel game with the free to air coverage delayed by an hour?

I belive - but am happy to stand corrected if wrong - that federal legislation ensures that AFL and RL GF's must be shown live on free to air.Originally posted by CureTheSane

The current "anti-siphoning" legislation provides that 37(I think?) proscribed sports/sporting events (including the AFL and NRL grand finals) are offered to FTA TV stations before they can be offered to pay-TV. If the FTA stations do not wish to show any of the proscribed events, pay-TV may show them; this commonly occurs with test cricket (which is on the list)for example.Originally posted by Swansinger

The current anti-siphoning legislation expires in 2005 and the pay-TV operators (particularly Lachlan Murdoch) are applying enormous pressure on the government to relax or drop the provisions altogether.Comment
