Multi Channel Network have launched a new interactive voting poll that allows AFL fans to share their opinions LIVE during selected Saturday matches on FOX FOOTY.

Initiated by MCN, the POWERADE POLL is a first for FOX FOOTY and POWERADE which kicked off last Saturday during the St Kilda vs Sydney and Adelaide vs Collingwood matches.

AFL fans are able to access the voting poll via their iPhone, Android, tablet or PC at poweradefooty.com.au.

During selected Saturday AFL matches on FOX FOOTY, viewers will be asked a question related to the match and then directed to the  poweradefooty.com.au site where they will be able to vote on the live poll question. The integrated on-screen graphics will then display the results as they are delivered in real time.

Anthony Fitzgerald, Multi Channel Network CEO, said: "This is a great new mobile site for footy fans and a terrific initiative which in a sense takes the armchair critic to the TV screen. For the first time, FOX FOOTY viewers will be able to interact with a match as they're watching it - sharing their opinions about the action on the field via our live poll.

"The POWERADE POLL questions will be all things AFL. It'll be topics that fans sit around discussing when they get together to watch a game."

Poll question examples include: 'Can St Kilda come back and win this game?', 'Who'll kick the most goals in today's game - A: Nick Riewoldt, B: Steven Milne or C: Justin Koschitzke.'

The POWERADE POLL will run until the end of the home and away season in September.
