    You can only 'officially' watch games online if you live Overseas. Funnily enough - because it's being played in NZ you should be able to watch this week!! You should take them to court! Could be a loophole there. Sue them for emotional distress.

    You might find a NZ TV feed if they are showing it on NZ TV?

    I think the only other 'official' way is to buy into a Telstra AFL package which allows you to watch games online.

    $14 weekly pass. Not sure how it all works though.

    The AFL has really fumbled this.In Melbourne they are having a 5 hour padded out ANZAC coverage of the Pies and the Bombers, yet they can't manage a free to air coverage of our real historic ANZAC game in Melbourne at all. Really bloody pathetic effort if they are genuinely trying to promote the ANZAC spirit amongst the general public. Unbelievably biased coverage.
    We have them where we want them, everything is going according to plan!

    Watch Live AFLTV - Stream AFL Live at AFLTV

    $14 weekly pass. Not sure how it all works though.
    for $14.99 you can watch it on a mobile device. (or $90 for the season)
    And if you can plug mobile device into a larger screen all the better!!

    I subscribed to the AFL mobile content and watched the entire game on my tablet.
    I plugged it into the TV (Hdmi) for a while but it is a bit pixelated at that size.

    Froze a couple of times, but I still got to see most of the match!!
    Quality wasn't too bad.

    I wouldn't count on it.
    Ch 7 can only show 4(?) games per round.
    I doubt they would show 2 games in a day.
    Besides it will be Friday next year and there is already talk about making the Pies/bombers clash a night game.
