Friday night footy in prime time would be great too (probably wont happen now though as the AFL has made it clear that wasn't a priority for them, preferring money over better coverage with Channel 9's bid).
Isnt the reason they wont be showing AFL on friday nights because it would be absurd to take on rugby league in sydney?

Comon beaussie say its so

Not at all, like I posted earlier, the fucked up AFL chose more $$$ over improved coverage in Sydney and Brisbane. As I've shown in TFC, AFL games broadcast prime time can and have indeed outrated NRL games.

Eddie is doing what is best for the Southern and Western AFL States. He knows that promoting the game in the North is a waste of time. The AFL should start looking after their local members and stop sucking up to the Northern States who are so lost in this NRL shit!

AFL for AFL States and viva Eddie el Presidento!

Yet clubs like yours would not be party to such a windfall via the TV rights money without successful northern states teams. You know you would all be lost without Sydney and Brisbane.

Sydney and brisbane would be a basket case of not for the sacrifices the real AFL states had to make so that 4wd members of the Ca Swannies can get their tyres dirty neasr the SCG!

We are a foundation club with more history than you johnny come lately Alberton wharfies. We've paid our fair share of license fees over the years despite being a foundation club. Go figure.

Meanwhile it is apparent we have more success on the field and off the field when compared with the Power. When was the last finals match sellout for the Power?

Beaussie the fucked up AFL chose more dollars for less coverage because of my point. They would lose money if they tried to go up against rugby league in friday night footy. You know its true.

BeAmerican who care how many people go the game! It is easier to watch it live on TV. At the end of the day it comes to who is the Premiers, not how many were there at the stadium! It wont be long before the Ca Swannies have 3,000 at their games as the eastern suburbs yup supporters will get tired of the weekly losses...aka early 1990s all over again!

Viva Eddie our true AFL leader!

Ok taking your point, at the end of the day it comes down to who is the Premiers. Well it certainly ain't Port.

Yeah but it did not take us 70 odd years to become Premiers!

Better late than never. Fact remains we are the premiers and your Port aint.

Our Port have been there and done that!

Yeah we all know about the premiership hangover in season 05.
