Onion your a dushbag, you can twist my words however you like. If there are 300K melbourneite who watched the game on TV, they sure will be lining up for their ticketOnions wrote:Do you know what you just ******* said? Lots of crowd coming in from I/S?

Good to see the Victorian Government has got broader vision than you individuals. State Of Origin 1 2012 - Etihad Stadium. Given the Melbourne audience that watched the game on TV and the guys from NSW, QLD and WA who generally fly in to see it, they better stretch the ground viewing capacity.![]()
If they really had confidence in it, it'd be ******* played at the MCG!!

Please provide evidence that they tried to onsell them, Mr Pussycat. If they can't onsell them they must show all nine of them under the new broadcasting laws.

C7. contract allows them to onsell some of there four matches - what this article doesn't tell you is when they tried to get rid of some matches nobody was interested.

they signed up for 4... & wanted only 2... but ten said .. F off .. we don't want the other 2

Foxtel will show all 9... 4 in simulcast with 7
5 exclusively .. that 7 cannot as they do not have the rights to
geez... I know more about the AFL's inflated .. over priced deal then you do

Here's the article. (It's about the conditions C.7 must follow in regards to its new contract with the AFL). C.7 has purchased the right to broadcast 4 matches. Under the terms of the deal there allowed to sell some of those 4 matches to another Tv network . But if not If not C.7 will screen all 4, but some may appear on digital stations only(7 mate). Previously/currently anti - siphoning laws prevented you from showing matches on digital stations only . that won't be the case next year however - it may only be 1 match(Im not sure).article wrote:Seven was able to onsell some of the 4 Free to Air matches if it had a broadcast partner but has always said it would happily screen them all, by utilising its digital channels under the new anti-siphoning rules.

I can't believe the ludicrous suggestion from TLPG , that Seven signed up for all 9 games
I mean think about it ?
what did Foxtel Pay for if they have NO exclusivety
If someone can watch all 9 games .. split between the main FTA channel & digital ones ... for nothing
why would someone pay for the very same thing
how & why would Foxtel expect subscriptions to rise in an arrangment like this ?
Foxtel have 5 games .. that ONLY they can televise
forcing AFL fans to subscribe if they want to watch these games .. thus hoping their subscription take up in the Sthn States improves ... markedly
& they will also cover the other 4 in simulcast with 7
ch 7 have 4 games they will televise on FTA .... & 4 only
