I would never have bought a $75-$120/month package with Fox Footy in the old Foxtel days, so have been pretty thankful for the $25/month or less with discounts for Kayo that has given me a chance to watch most Hawks game. Still not easy for everyone, granted, but at least made me able to see the Hawks a bit more often than I used to.

Teia really boucning around since his delisting - played WAFL in 2023 and old mates Timmy O and Shane Savage and the forgettable Ty Vickery along with Jed Anderson and Fergus Greene

Teia Miles (Portarlington, Bellarine)

The former Hawk took the mickey in his first year in the Bellarine, averaging more Premier Data ranking points than any other player with 153 per game to go with 36 disposals, a lazy 30 kicks and seven clearances. Miles, who played 19 games with Hawthorn, helped Portarlington snap its 68-game losing streak.


Tim O’Brien (Doncaster East, Eastern)

A maiden season in the Eastern league’s Premier Division netted a leading 37 goals for Doncaster East from 14 matches immediately after his decade-long AFL career with Hawthorn and the Western Bulldogs finished last year. His campaign was highlighted by bags of five against Vermont, Noble Park and Norwood on the way to finishing inside the top 10 for goals kicked in one of the state’s strongest local football competitions.

Shane Savage (Pines, Mornington Peninsula)

Another outstanding season by the ex-Hawk and Saint, with 10 mentions in the best players in his 18 games while using his pace and skill.

Tyrone Vickery (Edithvale-Aspendale, Mornington Peninsula)

The ex-Tiger and Hawk played a key role in the Eagles’ Division 2 premiership. Providing a strong target, he kicked 35 goals in 14 matches, including a bag of four in the grand final.

6. Jed Anderson (Hoppers Crossing, Western)

Enjoyed a stunning season in the middle for the Warriors as they ended a 20-year premiership drought. Was named in the best in 15 of his 16 games including the best on ground medal on grand final day.

5. Fergus Greene (Sandhurst, Bendigo)

Greene moved back to his home club and helped Sandhurst to win the premiership. He kicked 83 goals to lead the competition goalkicking.

 
Thank **** for anti-siphoning legislation. Not everyone can afford and/or connect to pay TV and not all sport should be locked behind a paywall. You only need to look at the death of ODI cricket in this country to see that it's not great to lock everything up on a pay to watch service.

I will agree with you that the Channel 7 coverage of footy is deplorable and that listening to BT is a form of torture that even Dick Cheney would have winced at - but FTA sport still has its place.

I remember at how great the coverage of the 2005 ashes series was on SBS, as the FTA networks didn’t want to broadcast the series. If it was just made exclusive to Foxtel back in the day, most Australians would not have been able to experience that series. The only other way people could have experienced that series, would have been through sites like cricinfo, or abc radio which is not the same as watching a broadcast.

In these days and times, Foxtel isn’t really worth the money, with streaming services being a cheaper alternative. FTA I stopped watching a long time ago, as I find it either reruns or crappy “reality” tv. So for the billion+ dollars that 7 pays for the footy, you would think that they would want to capitalise more on their investment by making it more watchable

Being a Telstra customer, I used to enjoy free coverage on the AFL ap. Worse thing Telstra did was drop that service., as I was then forced to get Kayo. Best thing I did was get rid of Foxtel, too expensive for how often I would use it.
 
The great man Gary Ayres

MONTROSE

Five-time Hawthorn premiership great and former Port Melbourne coach Gary Ayres will continue at Montrose, after arriving in 2022.

With the Port Melbourne VFL coaching job in the news, it's worth noting that the great Gary Ayres, who led the Borough to the 2011 and '17 flags, has been reappointed at Montrose. He joined the Demons in 2022 and he's going on for two more years.
