flower you AFL & Foxtel for screwing over the fans who used to be the lifeblood of the competition before big advertising dollars
and full pay t.v rights (it is happening).

I know this is the way of things but greed only destroys and i find it very hard to swallow.
If only people could unite against such selling off.

Meh, who cares i guess with the coming generations all being fat lazy gamers they may just not have many sports fans left
to pitch to in the future.

You are joking, yeah?? I don't know what age group your in (Probably a pretty easy guess tho), but you're pretty clearly out of touch with people my age.

Grufflez

I am 31.

And yeah i guess people really do just except whatever shower comes their way.

I mean after all it just seems normal right?

I agree with that bolder Grufflez statement to an extent, but lots of young people coming through are doing great things.


As for the TV deal, it is on TV, just gotta pay for it :/ Next week surely it's 3 games live as there is a Thursday as well?

I think of football as a hobby so spending $612 a year on a hobby that gives me 100's of hrs of entertainment is a bargain (Plus you still get all the other sport that comes with it!)

I didn't even realise that we've only two games on FTA this week.  :(

Also RIP Grufflez.

Was the lack of FTA games this week the last straw?

We get 4 free to air games a week each full round and seeing there is 2 full rounds over 3 weeks for each team that means we will get 8 games free to air over the byes , 3 games each for the next 2 weeks nothing new same as last year , just the world we live in with King Rupert  ;)
