Ch7 CEO David Leckie said on AW last night when 7 was showing live, Foxtel would be taking their vision, commentary and adds, that was the trade off.

yeah and it makes sense for them to do that, it means they are selling all the advertising space for the game

I am not sure on adds. Kim Williams from Foxtel was very firm at the presser on Thursday

"All nine games on Foxtel siren-to-siren uninterrupted. This is first time in the history of the AFL that this happened"

Comment From SteveSteve: ]
Hi Gilion. Will channel 7 owned games broadcast live on foxtel have seperate commentary from foxtel, or simply be the same as the channel 7 broacast. If so I will presume that these games will not be advert free on foxtel because channel 7 commentators work around adverts.

Gillon McLachlan: Hi Steve. Foxtel will take the channel 7 commentary feed, but the 7 commentators do continue talking while there are ads on their channel, so you'll be able to hear/watch that on Foxtel while 7 is showing ads.

That clears that up once and for all.

I'm just glad we have a new dedicated channel again in 2012! Foxtel AFL Sports. Cant wait. Just a bit miffed Clinton can't take his seat on WLF again. RIP.

Gosh, I wonder why Roy didn't show up. Forgot to set his alarm probably.
