    couldnt see why they wouldnt. They are showing the NAB cup, so it would be od to show the pre season and not the main season.

    I don't know, but thought Sky had the exclusive rights to the season proper.

    Yes! Don't the AFL have an approved broadcaster for each country/region?

    yeah, and it has always ESPN and then ESPN/BT sports when BT took ESPN into their sports package 2 years ago. The official AFL website still has ESPN and BT as their international partner, and I never heard AFL ever being on Sky Sports or it changing. Would be very odd to change it when they have the NAB cup too. Wouldnt make much sense to be honest.

    http://www.afl.com.au/tv-radio/international-broadcast-partners

    where did you hear/see that it was changing to sky?

    Nope! It was setanta until it went bust and had been Espn ever since until they were bought by bt with Eurosport showing highlights of all games and extended highlights of 1 game however these usually are mid week.

    If they are showing nab they will show season proper

    any chance you can revive this thread?

    Games seem to be spread all over the BT stations. Its a nightmare setting up the planner (first world problems I know!)

    sound, I'll see what I can do. It just took a good bit of time to do the full search and it didnt seem like it was serving any purpose!

    But seeing as you asked so nicely....
