Congratulations to the AFL (NSW/ACT) Commission for their successful negotiations with Fox Sports to air the Sydney AFL Match of the Day in a 1 hour weekly program to be shown on Fox Footy Extra in 2003.

The first match set down for coverage is the Round 1 clash between East Coast Eagles and Campbelltown at Roger Sheeran Oval on Sunday April 27th.

Digital Sports Productions have been appointed as the Production House to cover the Match of the Day and produce the 60 minute highlights package each week.

Congratulations to Craig Abercrombie, the Head of Production at Digital Sports and indeed all of the Sydney Football fraternity.

Even better news ... the timeslot for the SFL package is 8.30pm Friday Nights ... I was expecting a dreaded 2am timselot of a Wednesday morning.

Good luck to all & well done to the league ... good negotiation skills. They seem to be on the right track this year.
