Free to air TV 2014 October 31, 2013, 10:08:40 am Fixture's out 12 definite matches on free to air (C7) and likely a 13th in round 23. Rest of foxtel.An absolute crap scheduling of matches as well ... I'm almost surprised we get to play on Saturdays.Pity that breakaway competition contemplated a long way back didn't eventuate.God, I hate the AFL
Re: Free to air TV 2014 Reply #1 – October 31, 2013, 10:12:29 am There's only 4 spots on FTA and 9 games per typical week. They're never going to put games up against each other on their digital channels (can they start doing that next year?)Half on air sounds about right when you finished 8th. It's not like if it wasn't on Foxtel then it would be on FTA.

'Bout time the idiots at the AFL thought outside the square and offered delayed / next day matches on 7 digital.

Re: Free to air TV 2014 Reply #6 – October 31, 2013, 11:50:46 am Just realised, 14 night, 2 twilight (night), 4 day games. I reckon in the past, we have played better in the day than at night. Hope we address this.
Re: Free to air TV 2014 Reply #7 – October 31, 2013, 12:06:40 pm At least we are the away team in the Sunday night games against the Pies and Bombers.
Re: Free to air TV 2014 Reply #8 – October 31, 2013, 12:08:57 pm Round 23 v Essendon is Friday at 12am. Perfect way to end a night out on Thursday night.

Re: Free to air TV 2014 Reply #13 – October 31, 2013, 04:01:08 pm We desperately need the option of a PayTV footy channel where you can subscribe without having to buy all the other Foxtel stuff, which I really don't want, i.e Starter pack. Wouldn't mind even being able to watch games on a pay per view basis.
Re: Free to air TV 2014 Reply #14 – October 31, 2013, 04:09:42 pm Agree cookie. I'd happily pay $30-$40 per month for six months of the year to watch the footy, but I refuse to pay ~$70 when I don't want all of the crap that comes with it.
