AFL Semi Finals / TV Rights debate

Two huge games this weekend with the winners going through to next weeks grand final.

Now - Sydney Swans (my team) vs Port Adelaide Power
Tomorrow - Geelong Cats vs Brisbane Lions


It’s really good how all the AFL finals (and NRL) are on free to air tv. Can you imagine the last few weeks of the PL season all being on BBC and ITV? I’m not sure how much money the PL clubs get from the UK providers but you’d think one day it might be doable to reach an agreement with the free to air providers and show all PL games on normal TV and still bring in bucketloads of money from overseas rights payers. Doesn’t matter to me too much now as I’m here and pay a grand total of $7 a month for all PL games legally 😆. Just wish my family and friends in the UK weren’t continuously ripped off for a handful of games shown per week.

Nohlmans bedsheets see a lot of action as he's a massive wānker.

Care to share your thoughts about tomorrow's Wallabies v All Blacks clash, Robb?

Neither side has been doing well lately.

Union is really strange here as it’s just so unpopular. Nowhere near as much as it used to be and all kids wanna play now is league. I’ll watch it - as it’s another thing on free to air tv 😆 - but for me South Africa are clearly the best side in the world and the rest are playing catch up.

The really scary thing for international rugby is that many kids in NZ are flocking to league as well and that will dilute the quality of the All Blacks in the coming years.
