Both those sports have a much more WORLD exposure, which is where Qantas no doubt wants to see it's brand.

As for this contract as others have said it seems more like arrogance on behlaf of the AFL to demand exclusivity. I mean to say what does it even matter to the AFL if Qantas were also a sponsor of another sport.
