On the biggest day on the Australian sport calendar, the Seven Network will have every angle of the premiership decider covered, from early morning into the night for footy fans in every corner of the country.
Melbourne Premiership captain Max Gawn will join Seven’s Grand Final coverage as part of the Grand Final Brunch, hosted by 7NEWS Melbourne’s Rebecca Maddern while Collingwood 403 game player Scott Pendlebury will join the Grand Final Countdown panel, hosted by Luke Darcy.

Seven’s Head of AFL and Sport Innovation, Gary O’Keeffe, said:
“For the first time since South Melbourne and Fitzroy met in the 1899 VFL Grand Final, the Swans and the Lions will travel south for the biggest day on the Australian sporting calendar – and we couldn’t be more excited.
“As Australian Rules football continues to reach new heights in Queensland and New South Wales, it’s fitting that the two best teams of 2024 herald from the northern states. If you thought State of Origin was big, wait until you see this rivalry. It’s going to be massive.
“With a state-of-the-art broadcast including the most cameras ever used, paired with football’s most astute commentary and hosting team, the 2024 AFL Grand Final is set to be the biggest, most impressive Grand Final Day broadcast ever seen. Do not miss a minute, right here on Seven and 7plus, Your Home of Footy,”
– he said.
