They covered Monday in the previous round but didn’t list it online. It looks like it’s the same this round as they’re making mention on the air of coverage of every match.

@Daniel_Anderson

This is where ABC can offer a alternative in the southern states. Keep the evening shows on analog, and put AFL on DAB.

@Frankie

I bet it’ll be the other way around. Bear in mind does their rights agreement even cover all of these matches?

Quentin Hull said during his call of Gold Coast-Western Bulldogs clash tonight that ABC Radio would broadcast matches during the 20-day bonanza starting next Wednesday, July 29, but some wouldn’t air on analogue radio due to program commitments. He reminded fans to listen to those matches on Grandstand Digital or via the AFL mobile app.

[Daniel_Anderson]

As i said earlier, i don’t see ABC doing every match due to program commitments. SEN and MMM will do every match most likely.

[Daniel_Anderson]

I’d be interested to see how many matches ABC does put on local radio due to program commitments. I’d say all WA/SA matches will be on Local Radio in their states. Swans/Suns/Lions/Giants matches on NewsRadio, etc.

[Daniel_Anderson]

With ABC, you very rarely have any bias, even though it takes the local station’s call rather than suffer the expense of sending a Melbourne crew to Perth or Adelaide. But a Melbourne based guy like Nicholson or Clinch will get mixed in sometimes.

[JohnsonTV]

Just heard new promo by David Astle on ABC Melbourne today, saying his evening show will continue on digital radio on Monday-Thursday nights, when ABC Melbourne broadcasts AFL matches on analogue radio.

Update on the ABC’s coverage.

ABC Local Radio

Alastair Nicholson confirmed yesterday 30 of the 33 matches will be on analogue and Grandstand Digital in Victoria. The Bulldogs v Richmond, Suns v Essendon and Bulldogs v Crows will miss out on coverage on Victoria only available via the AFL app due to rights issues.

[Daniel_Anderson]

I thought that abc could air any game they wanted?

[Daniel_Anderson]

could see sen or 3aw getting the Bulldogs v Richmond, Suns v Essendon and Bulldogs v Crows.

[JohnsonTV]

Bulldogs v Crows is the Sunday 1.05pm game and will be broadcast on ABC Local Radio back into South Australia.

[Daniel_Anderson]

I believe that game would be a SEN game in Mlebourne.

[Frankie]

Obviously not to every market even if they’re providing commentary for the AFL app.

[JohnsonTV]

3AW is skipping this Thursday night’s match between Melbourne and Port Adelaide according to the station’s broadcast schedule. It is not covering Sunday’s matches between Gold Coast and GWS, nor between Fremantle and Collingwood.

[VictorianSun]

Typical…

@Daniel_Anderson

SEN and MMM will do every match most likely.

Triple M is doing every match this round while SEN aren’t airing Bulldogs v Richmond tonight & North Melbourne v Adelaide on Saturday afternoon

[JohnsonTV]

Triple M coverage for Round 9

Triple M On Air Coverage Round 9 2020

AFL Nation coverage for Round 9 (it skipped Western Bulldogs v Richmond tonight)

UPDATE 3/8: 3AW is not broadcasting tonight’s game between Port Adelaide and Western Bulldogs nor Wednesday’s clash between Geelong and North Melbourne, according to AFL website. 3AW is covering Richmond v Brisbane Lions on Tuesday night.

[JohnsonTV]

AFL Nation coverage for Round 9

Triple M coverage for Round 10

Triple M On Air Coverage Round 10 2020

Both SEN and Triple M are covering every match during this round but 3AW are skipping Wednesday’s doubleheader (Geelong v North Melbourne and Adelaide v Melbourne).

@JohnsonTV

Grandstand Digital or via the AFL mobile app.

Kinda suck you can’t hear it on the ABC App. I don’t think it support carplay or android auto. At least league doesn’t have this restriction.

[JohnsonTV]

@Laoma

Kinda suck you can’t hear it on the ABC App.

It’s because the AFL wants to control audio rights, thus forcing radio stations to provide their coverage to the mobile app as part of the radio rights agreement.

[Laoma]

Just more those in a car in NSW, it is a bit awkward to use the app to listen if you have carplay/android auto. You can always pull over touch your screen and do it that way so its a first world issue. If I was AFL, I’d invest in Carplay/Android auto or just be like the NRL in this instance.
