No aerial? No free sport.

The Communications Legislation Amendment (Prominence and Anti-siphoning) Bill 2023 is in Parliament now.

But it needs to be changed to ensure all Australians can get access to free sport regardless of the technology they use.

Reach out to the Prime Minister and the Minister for Communications urging them to amend new laws so that we keep sport free no matter how you watch TV

Why the Anti-Siphoning Bill needs to change to ensure all Aussies can get free sport

If you are a sports fan in Australia you probably enjoy watching your favourite teams and athletes compete in the biggest events on free-to-air TV. Whether it's the AFL Grand Final the Australian summer of cricket or the Matildas doing Australia proud we expect - and deserve - to see these iconic sporting moments and cheer on our heroes without paying a cent.

But did you know?

The only reason that Aussies can view these sports for free is because the Government has legislated that certain iconic sports must be offered to TV broadcasters first so that they don't end up behind a paywall.

This is known as the anti-siphoning scheme. But it is outdated and only guarantees your free sport if you watch it via broadcast TV not if you stream it over the internet. This is a problem because we all know TV viewing is changing and more and more Aussies don't have access to an aerial or choose to watch their favourite sports through apps like 7plus 9Now and 10Play.
