Whinge, whinge, whinge.

Try living in Canberra, where every Friday night is delayed (and most over time slots), and we get the privelage of seeing every Sydney game live.

Sounds like a dream come true! I live in WA and up until the split round the only Swans games we got on free-to-air were the ones against WCE and Fremantle.

My advice for fellow Perth-ites is to head to an establishment that gets a live satellite feed from Alice Springs and shows all games live. Not sure it's legal but it's definitely awesome! I watch a quite a few Swans games and Friday night footy (Live from 5.40pm!) at the Inglewood Hotel.  ;D
Of course it doesn't hurt that their steak sandwich is outstanding  :P

Or get Foxtel - I generally dont have an issue with any game I want to watch.  Foxtel is primarily scheduled to suit the eastern states so you normally get the blockbuster games.  I cant recall a time when I havent been able to watch a Dockers (or Eagles) game live either, so I get the best of both worlds.

Unfortunately this week the Eagles v Lions game is on at the same time as the Pies v Cats game so I have to wait to watch that game, so this is one of the few times that I cant watch a big game live, but being 2 hours behind means the game is actually at a decent time for me (finally an advantage for being 2 hours behind)

Perth Time Starts
Dockers v Roos starts at 12pm
Eagles v Lions starts at 5.30pm
Cats v Pies starts at 8.30pm

Looking set for a big day of footy on Sat, all advert free during each quarter.

Too expensive to get just for footy (and cricket) imo. Would rather spend that money on beer and steak sandwiches  ;)

I also watch UFC, WWE and the bikes - used to be MotoGP and Superbikes, but ONEHD picked up the Motogp this year.
