THANKS CHANNEL SEVEN (FOR NOTHING !)

After having access to live Friday night games up her in QLD all season (on Fox) we come to the business end of the season with good old Channel seven broadcasting Finals on Friday nights, and guess what ! It doesnt suit them to show potentially the best game of the finals live. Oh No, Better Homes and Gardens is priority number one for the self proclaimed Footy Channel. Thanks for nothing Channel Seven.

Which clearly isn't good enough. They are the worst broadcaster of the AFL this year than ever before.

I'm surprised they didn't put a re-run of Gilligan's Island before the match...thats the sort of rubbish they like to do!

Channel 9 used to delay the Friday night match broadcasts, but not the Sunday games. Why on earth do Channel 7 delay the Sunday match? Pathetic.

Channel 9 delayed the game afterwards, and they cut out the first quarter as well.
The only reason they showed the early game live was because it was usually interstate or at Skilled stadium where it sells out every week.
