Not to distract from the current debate, But an interesting piece of information for all on this thread.

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.

Do you know what you just ******* said? Lots of crowd coming in from I/S? That proves that locals DON'T GIVE A ****!! So you rely on interstaters to ******* prop up the crowd!! BRAVO!!

If they really had confidence in it, it'd be ******* played at the MCG!!

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 ticket

If it was being fucking played where they could fit in!!

Come on, how about you call on your fucking suits to take the risk? Or don't they have the fucking guts because they know they won't pull the numbers?

Do check before posting links that actually support what I say, Mr Pussycat.

They have 4 matches not 9.

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.

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. That was the point I was making that you are trying to avoid.

they never signed up for 9 you drop kick
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

Hey fuck wit did you even read what Truthsayer said? Seven HAVE to show all nine games under the new fucking laws! It doesn't matter what the fucking deal said! If they can't sell them to Ten or Nine or even the ABC or SBS, they HAVE to fucking show them!

Thats another Onion no content special, well done. All smartarse, no value to the thread.

You're calling me calling out fucking gutless fans for not called on the NRL to move the game to the biggest venue available no fucking value to the thread? You're fucked in the head as well, Puppies!

Here's an idea, try looking the thing up yourself ******

I don't have to. The quote I gave from the article that was linked said it all. Perhaps it is you who should be looking up the new broadcast laws.

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).

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
