sleach Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 I don't normally watch any AFL but my brother in law is coming over for the weekend and he is a massive Crows fan. I don't have free to air TV - I only ever watch streaming. What is the best way for me to get the game on for him to watch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you can't even try Channel Seven's streaming service, they'll be showing "Border Security" Episodes on an endless loop Because of this, the streaming service that Telstra uses is via the AFL app for phones or tablet devices. Although, it comes with a warning that the picture size has been limited to the size of an iPhone due to the "new rights agreement" (which nobody can understand) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McDigital Posted September 29, 2017 Author Share Posted September 29, 2017 (edited) G'day, The Grand Final is here, Adelaide and Richmond have made it this far, which one will be victorious? As usual, Fox Footy are not allowed to broadcast the game live, they must wait until after Seven are done airing the main match, which seems to be 5:30pm AEST Saturday: Adelaide v Richmond - First Bounce: 2:30pm AEST - 2pm ACST Played At: MCG, Melbourne LIVE To: Tasmania including Hobart at 2pm on Southern Cross N.T. including Darwin at 1:30pm on Southern Cross Victoria including Melbourne at 2pm on Seven and Prime S.A. including Adelaide at 1:30pm on Seven and Southern Cross GTS/BKN W.A. including Perth at 12pm on Seven and GWN A.C.T. and N.S.W. including Sydney at 2pm on Seven and Prime Qld including Brisbane at 2pm on Seven Gold Coast at 2pm on Prime Delayed To: Nationwide at 5:30pm AEST on Fox Footy and HD (5pm ACST - 3:30pm AWST) Note: Seven will be broadcasting the match in HD nationwide, this will mean Channel 70 in Metro and Channel 60 in Regional areas 7mate is also airing a replay at 11:30am in your local timezone on Sunday morning Edited September 29, 2017 by McDigital 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pc10 Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 I am in Rockhampton in Central Queensland - no channel 60 in HD here. Does this mean we are watching the GF in standard definition. Please explain? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does this mean we are watching the GF in standard definition. Please explain? G'day pc9, I thought something like this would happen, however, as I understand it, it's part of the contract with the AFL that the game MUST be provided in HD, this is why 7mate in NSW and Qld has been the source of HD content instead of Seven's main channel As far as I'm aware, in Victoria, 7mate is HD but isn't broadcasting the game, so I'm not entirely sure if they are going to do something about that or just sit around watching it in SD. But that's for Prime to think about So, as for Queensland, which is under the Seven company umbrella, I find it surprising that they haven't done something there, so it looks like aren't meeting their obligations, unless for you guys it's actually on Channel 70 instead Edited September 29, 2017 by McDigital Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of regional and rural and remote Australia will be watching in sd including towns which rely on VAST for retransmission. AFL and seven dont give a damn about AFL fans in non heartland areas. Seven only concerned about maximising ratings and latee sipping McLachlin obsessed with AFLs role as a social justice warrior at the expense of ordinary supporters.

McDigital Posted October 1, 2017 Author Share Posted October 1, 2017 G'day, Channel 7 have come to the party for Victorian viewers. They'll be replaying Richmond's Preliminary Final win over GWS at Midday today (Sunday) followed by their Grand Final win against Adelaide at 2:30pm Not totally sure if their 11:30am replay on 7mate is still going ahead (which would benefit Prime viewers as it's still in HD) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
