Hey all, I apologise if this has already been posted elsewhere: SANFL will soon be available on ABC iView:

From abcsanfl on Twitter late last week:

"You've waited long enough. SANFL matches will be on Iview from next week. View SANFL matches anywhere in Oz. Get excited. Get very excited!"

"abc.net.au/iview First Up on Iview..... Eagles v North Adelaide from next Wednesday."

...I'm not sure if it means this Wed 12/5 or next, but will be good for those interstate or forget to record. Also not sure if other state leagues will also be made available on iView.

good news thanks HJ and ABC, can overseas people access it also? Would be great for JAS, Jimmy, JTC, theri etc

That's awesome for our overseas and interstate brethren, well done ABC!

agree with wedgie, i'll also add that others may come across it & 'convert' to our great game/competition

On the VFL site it mentions that the SANFL VFL and WAFL will be covered

It would indeed Dutchy but sadly not to be.

This is from their FAQ's

Can I access ABC iView overseas?

ABC iView is geo-blocked, which means that you can't access the programs from overseas. This is due to programming rights management, which prevent us from making this content available in markets other than Australia.

Thank god (other deities are available) for RPH and LifeFM

*edit* P.S. here's the link to their FAQ's for those wanting to know about things like browser compatibility, system reqs etc...

noice

You will find the content is only accessable in Australia, overseas followers won't be able to view any games.

Its pretty easy to get around that not that I encourage it.

So does that mean the first match is up on the Wednesday or are all games going to be online the Wednesday after the game has been played? May as well wait for the DVD if that is actually the case.

I am not happy, Saturday's game is not on iView yet!! I am a massive Glenelg fan who moved interstate 2 years ago, so having the SANFL on iView was awesome news for me, but if it's going to take this long for them to put it on iView, it is pretty stupid. That's just my view anyway.

To those of us not versed in the esoterics of 21st century technology ... what does this all mean, and how would I be able to view it?

G'day. FYI. We're publishing video highlights of the 3 non-televised games of the round every Monday on http://www.localfootysa.com.au

Problem is, when the next game is uploaded, the previous match is deleted.

Bugger...

Tried to watch the West v Centrals game on iView (as I taped the Crows game on Saturday - in hindsight the wrong game to tape). Watched about 15 minutes of the second quarter before I stopped because the quality is so poor I was getting nauseous.

To be honest I prefer the AdelaideNow highlights

SANFL now not on iview just when sturt have had 2 games on tv they take it of the website. have left message on the board for them and they are looking into it

yeh I looked for it too Tas and was disappointed
