Was that same desk used on AFL Game Day this year as part of its new set?

I think we’ll see new graphics tonight
The font that is usually used for the scoreboard is usually on the watermark but with a change, I can see a change of graphics

I think the graphics won’t change since the current set was only introduced at the start of the 2019 season.

The 7 sport HD watermark on The Front Bar last night looked awkward.

Also, I thought they weren’t going to be at the ground?
Anyone watching in NSW/ QLD/ WA that can share the 7mate “Sport” version of the new logo graphic?

Interesting to note that “Sport” was in red during The Front Bar - changed to white tonight

110% agree with you foxyrover! I was thinking this exact change myself. Would look heaps better!
Also worth mentioning a new 7 Sport opener. Cannot believe they’ve canned the iconic “Fanfare For The Common Man” theme!!! 
It just says 7mate HD. And looks clumsy too.

Missed it!
I believe this is being broadcast on the main BT Sports channel in the UK. Apparently, they even have a local commentary team at the start of their broadcast informing people of the games rules.

I can understand why, the red “SPORT” during last night’s The Front Bar looked quite dodgy!
The tweaked white is a bit better, but still not great. Should’ve just left the sport markings as they were, aside from changing the typeface of “LIVE & FREE” + “HD” to the new network font of course.

The Age is reporting that Seven has the rights to the AFL for two extra years at a discount, that takes them to 2024.
Just heard it on ABC Grandstand, I’ll find a link and edit this post when I do.
