Looks as though 3AW are covering the Box Hill v Coburg game on Sunday from City Oval Box Hill. Certainly being promoted in their schedule.
Shame the competition doesn't get a look in except during AFL bye rounds, but if they are covering the game it's a positive for the competition nonetheless.
Did anyone listen to the coverage?
How did it compare to SEN?
Was pretty good.
Shows just how far SEN have to go with professionalism, even after a season and a half.
Who were the commentators involved in the call?
Matt Granland, Tony Leonard, David King and Graeme Bond.
King being a Richmond assistant coach would have made it an interesting call to listen to.
To be honest, i was at the game, and didn't listen until i got back in the car, but on what i heard after the match, they only went through the AFL listed players performances, for the Richmond and the Hawthorn supporters out there. I understand that the majority of people listening to 3AW would be more interested in their reserves players at VFL level, but i didn't feel like listening to it much. And i'm a Richmond supporter! Confliction!!!!!!
I missed its listing in Green Guide but tuned to a relay on way home from North Ballarat v Frankston Reserves.
Utter hypocrites - 3AW does not normally mention VFL and refuses to give VFL scores.
The station hadn't arranged for "around the grounds" and appealed on air from somebody at Williamstown to give the scores from there. Martin Stillman gave progress scores. Not all normal relays took the broadcast, but much of Victoria could have heard the VFL description, albeit highly "reserves" tagged.
if 3AW loses the afl rights and SEN has afl next year. i recon 3AW will do VFL
How on earth would 3AW lose the rights?
It's core product for them.

The AFL have a financial interest in SEN, which might alter radio broadcast rights.
Mind you, I think 3AW also bought a small percentage of SEN when it was in financial trouble.
