hello can any one tell me if the AFL can be watched over here, how and where?

You may be able to watched the games through the AFL's own website, but only recorded and not live.

Eurosport 2 has the highlights of the "game of the week" every Tuesday if I recall correctly... this week was stkilda-weagels

Hi Lauren,
I would have posted earlier but I was in Melbourne re-acquainting myself with the world's greatest sport.

If you have Sky TV you can subscribe to Setanta Sports. They show three games live every weekend.

There are other methods but I'm not sure I can post them here.
