Due to the rebroadcast of 7HD on 10 May 2016, 7mate was reduced to a standard definition broadcast in Melbourne and Adelaide. Sydney, Brisbane and Perth instead received a HD simulcast of 7mate until December 2016,[4][5][6] with breakaway programming used from that point to broadcast AFL matches in HD while keeping 7HD as the primary channel simulcast.[7]
