No more TV Games for the Magoos for the rest of the year...

Yep, that's right.

The ABC have decided that it's better to deny smaller clubs the TV exposure that comes with having the biggest club in the land in town, in favour of a 'North Melbourne derby' between Werribee and North Ballarat (race to see who chokes first!) and yet more bloody games for the Scum.

Round 14 Box Hill Hawks vs Northern Blues

Round 15 North Ballarat vs Werribee

Round 16 Sandringham vs Essendon

Round 17 Box Hill Hawks vs Essendon

Round 18 Port Melbourne vs Geelong

Round 19 Williamstown vs Northern Blues

And according to the crew at vflfooty.com, here will be the final tally of TV games at the end of the home and away season:

5 - Port Melbourne, Bluescum
4 - Sandringham, Box Hill
3 - Werribee, Coburg, Williamstown, Geelong, Essendon
2 - Collingwood, Casey, Frankston, North Ballarat
1 - Bendigo

Now, I love the ABC as an institution as much as the next person. But seriously? The Scum may not even make the 8! Why the HELL should they get so many games?!

The only time we may get on TV again this year is finals (which may not happen either...)

The parasite club of Australian football gets more coverage than the biggest club in Australian football. YEESH!

Disgusting by the VFL.

Then they should let us Stream the Games then.

Agree, only real negatives about the VFL comp are the coverage and the draw. Can't work out why the need for a weekend off for the state game and 2 split rounds.
