How does FSW get the Grand Final feed?

A bit of a technical question.

I'm curious how Fox Sports World gets the video feed for the Grand Final? I know that throughout the season FSW receives regular video tapes sent via courier but obviously this isn't the case with a live Grand Final. What satelite is the feed being uplinked to from Australia? Are all games "potentially" available in north america because they are uplinked to a satelite but FSW merely doesn't receieve it. Or is it the case that with the Grand Final, the AFL uplinks this one and only one game to a satelite for live international distribution? Any good technical resources or info on this sort of thing?
