Surprising though that 3/3 Crows games delayed are away games and 2/3 for the Power.

I.e.:

Crows home games live - 11/11
Crows away games live - 8/11

Power home games live - 10/11
Power away games live - 9/11

Would have thought that it would have been the other way around. I'm not a fan of either team but surely it makes business sense, if you have to have three games on delay, to make them home games to protect the gate, etc.

Weird.

I think it swaps over year by year, so next year Port will have more on delay, then in 2019 it will be the Crows again

Great analogy, the AFL said Crows away games will always be live on FTA despite the presence of Pay TV. They went back on their word.

Like I said if at home 30 min delay if not sold out understandable but an away game on 2.5 hour delay is bullshit.

Foxtel don't care who had the home game, they submitted a list of the games they wanted and themselves and C7 get to haggle over them. It actually makes sense for Foxtel to want Port/Crows away games as it forces more people to subscribe to them. Wouldn't be surprised if Foxtel get more exclusive games in the next deal

its all about the saturday afternoon game. foxtel have exclusive rights to that game, and did have even in the last rights. They chose to sell it back to Ch7. This year they are still doing that but on delay. That is the only timeslot that is affected
