The channel was created in 2000 after News Limited won the television broadcast rights to the AFL for the 2002-2006 seasons. It granted to free to air rights to the Nine Network and Network Ten, and granted the subscription rights to Foxtel. Due to broadcasting rights, each state had a separate version of the channel to allow free-to-air right holders exclusive live coverage. For example, if Channel Ten broadcast a match between the Adelaide Crows and Sydney Swans live in Adelaide, Fox Footy would have been prevented from showing the match live, where as if Ten didn't broadcast it in Melbourne, Fox Footy would be allowed to show it live there. Fox Footy typically repeated all matches after they were played, although often with the commentary of the free-to-air network that presented it live originally. Fox Footy only broadcast the AFL and not any state football leagues such as SANFL, WAFL or VFL. 2000 (MM) was a leap year starting on Saturday of the Gregorian calendar. ...

The future of the channel was placed in doubt after the awarding of the AFL rights from 2007 to the Seven Network and Network Ten. On the 23rd of August, 2006, Foxtel announced the Fox Footy Channel would cease broadcasting at the conclusion of the current AFL season. Foxtel CEO Kim Williams stated "It's not financially viable to continue operating a 24-hour-a-day (Australian rules) football channel when we can only get three lives games a week and not on the terms we have sought." [2] Seven and Ten came to terms with Foxtel and four games per round will be shown on pay-TV, through the Fox Sports channels in what was a bad move since Channel 7 covers the other games poorly.
