The Fox Footy commentary teams will cover all the action of every game live and direct from each stadium, beginning with the blockbuster opener on Thursday night between Adelaide and Carlton and finishing with a bang when top-of-the-table St Kilda clash with Collingwood on Sunday as part of a national exclusive on Fox Footy, available on Foxtel and Kayo Sports.

Fox Sports executive director Steve Crawley said earlier this year: “The feeling at Fox Footy is one of great excitement and expectation after a record-breaking season last year. We have a new rights deal that is signed and waiting to commence, giving us greater opportunity to entertain our growing audiences. At day’s end, you’re only as good as the football and AFL football is the best of the best.”
