If you have a decent enough monthly internet allowance, I can usually find an online stream of the game.  No ads, and it's not shown on a delay normally.

I'd be interested to know where you can get that from
Always can get torrents of the game a day or two after, but never been able to find a decent live stream

Foxtel given the go ahead to bid for 5 AFL games per week. Looks like the AFL will now get their $1 billion tv deal

We missed 1 game live via TV this year and I found it live streaming on the net.  Via a UK station so it seemed a bit strange watching footy with UK ads but it was fine.  Quality was ok (quite watchable) but not fantastic - a by-product of not having high speed broadband I fear.  And we got whacked (the Kangaroos game in the wet) so that didn't help!

Will there be an alternative channel for block buster games with no bloody adds next year ??? and GF day 

Not on Foxtel it wont

GF & "Blockbuster games" (eg ANZAC day) are still on the anti-siphoning list and cannot be sold directly to PayTV, can only be sold to FTA networks

Abd BTW - there won't be any changes to who covers what in the AFL in 2011 as there is a contract in place that doesn't expire until the end of 2011. the 2011 draw clearly states who is showing what games except for round 22

However, my understanding is that the availabilty for say Ch 7 to show Friday night footy live on 7Two or 7Mate is there. This is a massive win for interstate IMHO

And what has happened to Ch7's HD channel (Ch 70) it isn't in HD anymore

I think it became 7mate WP.  Same as 9's became Gem.

Hey Infamy-where do you get the torrents? Im thinking about giving Foxtel the flick next year.

Not sure I'm allowed to post it publically

Right about now would be nice to still have Fox Footy. A channel you can flick to and watch some football, instead of the crap that's on almost all channels at the moment.

Yep but just about every program they showed wasn't in HD anyway - they just didnt have the content - so no great loss.
One, SBS and Foxtel are pretty much the only places you'll see HD content these days.

[TigerTimTam]

I wonder if we will ever be forced to subscribe to Foxtel HD to get some of the games?

Yeah, really miss that channel.

[Coach]

Pretty sure there is a new motorsport channel coming to Foxtel/Austar.   

I'd much rather Fox Footy over that poo
