Anyone whos been following technology and media news recently will be very interested in the future of sport broadcasts.
TV is moving online. When the NBN comes out expect your TV to be connected to the internet, and be able to broadcast television stations over the internet. It will most likely begin with Australian stations, and then move to American etc. The AFL will have its own channel ... how this will effect advertising is to be seen. It will probably just become another app on your TV.
Watch what V8 Supercars does with its rights due to be negotiated once the NRL situation is put to bed. A couple of years back a V8/7 agreement included the V8s having production control over the pictures & commentators.
Is that similar to the AFL where only AFL photographers are allowed at matches, and they onsell the photos to the media?
Did you even look at that image link? All games would be live and on their HD channels also.
Seven, Nine and Ten would be thrilled at the prospect of cannibalising the free-to-air AFL audience by broadcasting against each other...
And before someone says "But the NFL!" the NFL is far more popular in America than the AFL is in Australia and even then their "FTA against FTA" is only two time slots a week instead of almost every game like the OP is suggesting.
Suspected when I saw the thread title it would be by some daydreamer who wants every game free.
