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:
“All television ever did was shrink the demand for ordinary movies. The demand for extraordinary movies increased. If any one thing is wrong with the movie industry today, it is the unrelenting effort to astonish.”
—Clive James (b. 1939)
“The television screen, so unlike the movie screen, sharply reduced human beings, revealed them as small, trivial, flat, in two banal dimensions, drained of color. Wasn’t there something reassuring about it!—that human beings were in fact merely images of a kind registered in one another’s eyes and brains, phenomena composed of microscopic flickering dots like atoms. They were atoms—nothing more. A quick switch of the dial and they disappeared and who could lament the loss?”
—Joyce Carol Oates (b. 1938)
