Only game not live???
All other games except ours appear to be live into Melbourne.
Correct me if wrong, but going on the IQ Tv guide.
Is this a case of the AFL protecting Etihad revenue, as it is their best interests?
Sure, they get gate revenue from MCG finals, but miss out on F&B and ancillary revenue which the MCC get a big cut of.

Re: Only game not live???
You just cant stop with it can you. 2 days ago there wasnt going to be a game live in your opinion and now you have a new theory. The fact that only 30 thousand tickets have been sold may have something to do with it and maybe Channel 10 dont want to go live.saintspremiers wrote:All other games except ours appear to be live into Melbourne.

Give it a break plugger.
Why wouldn't 10 want to go live?
Give me one sensible reason please or just stir the pot per usual.

I gave you a sensible reason. Only 30,000 tickets sold.

30,000 ticket sales is not a lot, but the Friday night and Sat arvo games are also likely to be at 60 to 65% capacity just like our game, but are shown live.
The AFL look after Etihad revenue first and foremost. That is my point. That is Nettlefold's point also when comparing MCG to Etihad.

As I said in another thread I can't be there due to the birth of my child. However, the only real thing that grinds my gears about this non live TV rubbish for TEN is that it's being shown live in every other state apart from Victoria!
That is something channel ten are accountable for IMO!

Correct, no doubt because of the fact that with both involving interstate teams, the attendance will be down on the other two games. I would suggest that the decision to go "live" is taken in consultation with the AFL.stkildathunda wrote:Channel 10 aren't going live with either of their games.
