My God that’s a terrible experience

I’ve flagged it with 7plus support for what it’s worth. I don’t mind the fact that they’ve closed the loophole that might have given access to the NSW feeds here depending on what device you’re using so much, but it really should be redirecting to the Victorian feeds on all devices if it’s picking up an Albury location despite the NSW IP (rather than just refusing to load live AFL content altogether when selecting from the website which is linking to the NSW feeds).

After last week Eagles v Suns 7+ mini match highlights was the Fox feed, yesterday’s Dockers v Swans mini highlights are the 7perth feed.

That’s wired
Just watch it and its the Fox coverage!!
Yeah the 7plus mini consists of highlights from the 7 Perth telecast and the AFL app has highlights from the Fox Footy telecast.

I noticed Sunday Footy Feast was using Seven’s sport watermark when showing highlights of St Kilda v Geelong, even though it wasn’t shown on FTA anywhere

oh don’t worry, I’ve seen 7News use the current 7sport watermark on AFL footage from 2002-2006!

Makes full sense to me. The production company uses a different setup to NEP, so don’t have the full new package.
Is that a real question lol?
Last weeks match between Eagles & Suns which had 7perth broadcast is on 7+ with the Fox feed. Maybe from now on it will be the 7 feed for the Sunday afternoon games in WA that’s uploaded to 7+ or this was a mistake

Each of the 21 marquee games will also be simulcast live on 7plus Sport, ensuring nationwide coverage and an exclusive home for all other WAFL games, including 76 league games, the WAFLW Grand Final and the WAFL Colts Grand Final.
In addition, Women’s WAFL and WAFL Colts will be broadcast exclusively on West Australian Newspapers’ community sports platform, Streamer, for the 2025 season.
The landmark partnership, totalling over 250 games per season, will ensure live and free access to fans and consolidates the best of WA Football content under one trusted network, delivering all the action to viewers in Western Australia and beyond.
Seven West Media WA Chief Executive Officer, Maryna Fewster, said: “The WAFL is the heartbeat of football in Western Australia, and we’re thrilled to bring every single match of the 2025 season live, free and exclusively to footy fans on 7plus Sport.
“With 21 marquee games also airing on Seven and 7plus – including a slew of prime-time Saturday night matches – on top of the network’s seven day a week AFL offering, we’re making it easier than ever for WA footy fans to watch their teams in action, live and free, all season long on Seven and 7plus Sport."

“This deal revolutionises how fans engage with the Sullivan Logistics WAFL and offers the most visible and accessible broadcast partnership in WAFL history.
“By teaming up with the most widely watched and trusted network in Australia, we’re not just expanding our reach; we’re bringing WAFL to a new generation of fans,” he said.
“We hope that this partnership will not only increase our audience but also raise the profile of our competition, showcasing the incredible talent and thrilling football that our players deliver every week.
“We thank the Seven Network and every WAFL Club for their support and working with us to bring this new and exciting initiative to life,” Mr Roberts said.

Noticed that the AFL appear to have enforced new jackets for “broadcast crew” (matching other accredited officials and their positions), coloured purple. With that title on the back, with the AFL logo. And the broadcaster on the front (“7”). As seen at the start of post game as soon as they went into Essendon’s changerooms tonight with some 7AFL staff walking around.
Last week at the MCG, in attendance, I saw Fox Footy’s were the exact same, but with their “Fox Sports” logo on the front.
Sorry if it’s already been brought up.
