Please televise AFL Free To Air Live Channel 7

The AFL awarded contracts to televise AFL games from 2012 through to 2016 to Foxtel, Channel Seven and Telstra.

The broadcast rights include:

• A minimum of four Matches per week Live or Near Live on free to air;

• All 42 home and away matches involving teams from New South Wales, Queensland, South Australia, and Western Australia broadcast on free to air television in your home state; and

• All Nine Matches per week Live from FOX Sports on Foxtel and Austar and Fox IP television and live on mobile via Telstra.

AFL fans in many regional areas of Australia have enjoyed live coverage on free to air television of home and away games of there home teams for many years. There is a swelling of discontent in regional Australia individuals and city individuals holidaying in regional Australia at the increasing delays of home and away games televised on free to air television station Channel 7 involving teams from the individuals home states.

We need to make the AFL and Free to Air Television station Channel 7 aware that we want live free to air games in regional Australia. Please take 30 seconds to stand up and be counted on this issue.

If you are from regional Australia or a city based individual that holidays in regional Australia and want to watch your AFL team live on free to air television in regional areas we need your help by simply signing this petition before the end of the current AFL televising contract 2015.
