by admincms — Wed, 2010-02-17 22:43 — Last Updated: Mon, 2010-08-23 15:39

The 2010 season TV coverage for North America is finally becoming clear. For the most part, coverage will not be different than what was the case in August and September of last season. The primary US coverage will be via internet broadband on ESPN360.com. This is free if your ISP has a deal with ESPN [about 50% of US homes including internet providers Comcast, AT&T, Verizon, RCN, Insight, Frontier, Cavalier, Charter, Mediacom, Conway, Grande Communications, etc. It is also available at no cost to U.S. college students and U.S.-based military personnel via computers connected to on-campus educational networks and on-base military networks].  We will be posting round by round schedules for virtually the entire AFL season shortly. Round 1 will have  read more »

Back To The Future: Why AFANA Matters

by admincms — Sun, 2009-08-30 07:20 — Last Updated: Sun, 2009-08-30 11:39

About three years ago, I wrote an entry on my blog here at AFANA.com on "Why AFANA Is Important Even If You Don't Get The Footy Now".  My argument then, in a nutshell, was this:  If the only time you support what we do is when you are happy with the coverage, we might not be there on the day when you are not.  Or alternately, if you only visit our site when you feel you need us, don't be surprised if we aren't able to help you.  read more »

Begins with Round 19 for USA and Canada

For the first time since 1997, the Australian Football League will be on an ESPN network in North America.  Following the demise of the sport on Setanta, the AFL has struck a deal for live coverage on ESPN360, limited coverage on ESPN2, and for Canada, on TSN and TSN2.  AFANA worked closely  read more »

The ESPN Deal And History

One of the luxuries of being the "Chairman Emeritus" is that I get to help but I'm no longer responsible for the nitty gritty between the AFL, networks, and AFANA on TV issues.  I can also offer my perspective as the "old man" on the block -- the gray haired veteran with (hopefully) sage wisdom.   Now that the details are finally being published on the new AFL contract with ESPN and TSN in North America, I can also talk more freely without jeopardizing contract negotiations. 

Fans are already starting to weigh in and predictably  read more »

Which Match Should Be Match of the Week on MHz Networks Next Week?

by admincms — Wed, 2009-02-18 14:16 — Last Updated: Fri, 2009-08-28 18:32

(Voting for the 2009 season has now concluded. )

Each week, MHz Worldview & MHz Network 1 will show a "Match of the Week" voted on by you, the viewer!  Fans choose which match they want to see by simply voting in the weekly survey.   Matches are taken from the live or delayed matches aired for that round by Setanta Sports.  (MHz Worldview/MHz Networks 1 matches are aired with a one-week delay.)

We encourage you to vote for the match you would most like to see on MHz Networks, either because you feel it will be the best, most exciting, interesting, or important.  You decide…and fans rule!  We'll tally your results here at AFANA and let MHz Worldview/MHz Networks 1 know which match is the one requested by popular demand.  Two matches will open for voting each week this season (and the match not selected may air between October and December).  Voting closes each Thursday night prior to each round, US time. (Please note: If technical issues occur that are beyond MHz Worldview/MHz Networks 1 control, the channel reserves the right to air a substitute match for that week.)
