Broadcast schedule: Live AFL Round 5

Friday Night Football delivers a highly anticipated clash pitting the Crows and their star-studded forward line against the might of the reigning premier Hawthorn.

In the pre-game, we honour four-time premiership star Shaun Burgoyne as he celebrates his 300th game. We caught up with his family and premiership teammates at Hawthorn and Port Adelaide to tell us what they love about Shaun. AFL superstars Buddy Franklin, Nate Fyfe and Patrick Dangerfield also pay tribute to the indigenous champion.

Sunday Night Football returns for the ANZAC Day Eve Melbourne v Richmond match. The Demons have shown some good form recently, while Richmond hope to welcome back key stars to help rise from their slump. At half time we feature the inspirational story of returned soldier Curtis McGrath who lost both his legs in Afghanistan and is now on track for the Paralympics.

Saturday Night Footy sees the Cats trek to the Adelaide Oval to face the Power. Port Adelaide chairman David Koch and Crows power forward Tex Walker join us live on the desk. BT takes us through what happens when an AFL player undergoes a concussion test. And Discovered catches up with new Cats ruckman Zac Smith.

The traditional ANZAC Day clash takes on added intrigue this year as the embattled Bombers have surprised many with some strong performances, while the Magpies form has been at the wrong end of the scale. Neil Kearney tells the story of WWI military commander Sir John Monash, along with Hawthorn coach Alastair Clarkson’s respect for Monash’s achievements.
