Port Melbourne will aim to cap off a fantastic VFL season when they take on the Richmond Tigers in the grand final. This is The Roar‘s guide to live streaming the match online or watching it on TV.
The match is set to be played as part of a triple-header at Etihad Stadium on Sunday, September 24 with the first bounce scheduled for 3pm (AEST).
Port Melbourne finished the regular season in third position recording heavy wins over the Casey Demons and Williamstown on either side of a week off to make the grand final.
Richmond had to do it the hard way, winning an elimination final against Collingwood, before going on to beat the Demons and the Box Hill Hawks on their way to the big dance.
Channel Seven hold the rights to broadcast the AFL, and as such will be covering the VFL finals. However, the match won’t be available outside of Victoria, meaning if you live in any other state you won’t be able to watch it on TV.
Channel 7 are also televising the women’s VFL final before it on the day, meaning the VFL pre-game show is likely to start at around 2:30pm (AEST) – or half-an-hour before the first bounce at Etihad Stadium.
The coverage is expected to run through until about 6pm (AEST).
If you want to live stream the match then you will need to do so via Channel 7’s live streaming services.
You can stream live online via 7live, or download the PLUS7 app for either iOS or Android.
Unfortunately, both of these streams are intended to be geolocked to Victorian users only, as 7live and PLUS7 are intended to only deliver the user’s local stream.
The Roar will also be providing a live blog of the match so that you can keep up to date with every moment of the action.
