Television
ABC Victoria (branded ABC1) broadcasts one match a week live on Saturday afternoons during the home and away season, as well as broadcasting most finals matches. In 2006 and 2007 ABC2 showed replays of VFL matches late on Wednesday nights (early Thursday morning) to a national audience.
C31 Melbourne currently covers VFL football on The Local Footy Show and telecasts live league games as well as the TAC Cup, Victorian Country Football League, Victorian Women's Football League and the AFL Victorian Youth Girls Competition.

Famous quotes containing the word television:
“So by all means let’s have a television show quick and long, even if the commercial has to be delivered by a man in a white coat with a stethoscope hanging around his neck, selling ergot pills. After all the public is entitled to what it wants, isn’t it? The Romans knew that and even they lasted four hundred years after they started to putrefy.”
—Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)
“The television critic, whatever his pretensions, does not labour in the same vineyard as those he criticizes; his grapes are all sour.”
—Frederic Raphael (b. 1931)
“It is not heroin or cocaine that makes one an addict, it is the need to escape from a harsh reality. There are more television addicts, more baseball and football addicts, more movie addicts, and certainly more alcohol addicts in this country than there are narcotics addicts.”
—Shirley Chisholm (b. 1924)
