The AFL awarded AFL Radio Broadcast rights to the Pacific Star Network (PNW), owner operator of Melbourne sports radio station 1116 SEN for the next 5 years. The broadcast rights announced today by the AFL increases SEN’s commitment from 5 to a minimum of 6 games of AFL games broadcast live, including the Saturday twilight game, a new feature of the expanded AFL Competition. In addition, 1116 SEN will broadcast every game of the finals series and the Grand Final, plus the NAB pre season competition, along with other key events on the AFL calendar.
Pacific Star CEO Barrie Quick said “We are thrilled to extend our 5 year partnership with the AFL for a further 5 years. We look forward to bringing more live games than ever to our growing audience of people who share our passion for the sport.” In 2012, our award winning commentary team of Anthony Hudson, Dermott Brereton, Kevin Bartlett, David Schwarz, Matt Granland and Daniel Harford will be joined by the highly regarded Carlton Premiership Player and former Coach Robert Walls and North Melbourne Champion David King. With more AFL games, more comment and more news in 2012 and beyond, SEN has reaffirmed its position as Melbourne’s Home of Football.
