URGENT UPDATE: (8/26/13) Fox has confirmed to us that coverage on FSP has been cut back to 12:30 AM to 3:30 AM EDT. Waiting word from TSN up north. (09/25/13) We have been advised by the AFL that due to ancillary media rights guarantees requested by Seven Network and its unwillingness to provide a "clean feed" (i.e. absent 7 specific logos etc,) international broadcasters including Fox Soccer Plus and probably TSN2 will be unable to show anything except the Grand Final game itself. This will most likely mean coverage may be limited to 12:30 AM to 3:30 AM EDT in the US and Canada. As of now, coverage won't start until 11:00 PM EDT. This is purely at the feet of Seven not the AFL, Fox, TSN, or AFANA. We will have a firm schedule along with any additional updates between now and first bounce so check this article or our TV schedule page.

Original text: Fox Soccer Plus (FSP) in the USA and TSN2 in Canada will carry the Grand Final between Hawthorn and Fremantle LIVE on Friday night / Saturday morning, September 27th / 28th.  US coverage on FSP will begin at 9:00 PM EDT Friday including most pre-match festivities; Coverage will continue until 4:00 AM EDT Saturday concluding after the awards ceremony and post match interviews. First bounce is about 12:30 AM EDT. Canadian coverage on TSN2 will begin at 11:00 PM EDT and run to 4:00 AM. If you have no access to any of the preceding options, the game will be live via the internet on AFL-TV and you can sign up at this link. Coverage on Fox Sports 2 will be on a delayed and edited basis. Fans should check our TV Schedule page for details on the coverage and our TV Info page for more information on FSP and TSN2   For those looking for parties, see our listings on our Grand Final Party page.  We have a timeline of Grand Final Day events posted here.   (Note:  the only live coverage in North America is via these outlets and they are available nationally via cable and satellite services -- see our TV Info page..)
