Vic clubs are blocking limited crowds at SCG and Giants stadium which has been ok'ed by NSW government.
I’m in NZ so watch everything on AFL Football Online | Watch AFL Overseas which works really well (plus has all Fox Footy shows on demand or you can download to a device). As I understand it you can can get the same service via afl.com.au (or is that only for games and interviews?) Mine costs $149 a year I think. Alternatively you could VPN to be in NZ
Because it's about revenue, not "fairness".
I imagine (most) people who pledged their financial support for the remainder of this season did so on the understanding that they may not get to go to a game at all for the remainder of the season. So the pledge was unconditional. Opening up corporate boxes provides them with an opportunity to earn a little bit of additional revenue, though I question whether the amount is worth the effort/cost.
Personally I'd have no interest in watching a game from a corporate box, even if ordinary members were given that opportunity. I'd just as well be in front of my TV. Others may feel differently, but you'd still be without the chaotic passion that being in a crowd provides.
Well for me fairness does come into it. If no one goes then I have no problem... once you get into haves and have nots it’s different.
