[Coxy]

No, 9.30 in Brisbane too.

 

[mrslong]

No, 9.30 in Brisbane too.

WHAT?? WHY??? What else could be more important than footy, there's no cricket on...this does not make sense????

 

[Coxy]

Channel 9 do not respect rugby league.

 

[Je$ter]

If you don't have Fox, all the games are on the web on bigpondtv.

Channel 9 do not respect rugby league.

Wally should be promoted to CEO. If fatface McGuire can do it, so can the King.

 

[Kimlo]

Wow.... 9.30 is a pretty gay time slot for a "world cup match"
Sack channel 9

The deashits at Ch 9, the ARL and the RLIF (LOL) can all go and get rooted up the clacker by a whale.

TV times for the Group A matches on 9 (AEDT):

England V PNG - 9:30 pm (Sat)
Australia v NZ - 8:30 pm (Sun)
NZ v PNG - 10:00 pm (Sat)
Aus v England - 8:30 pm (Sun)
ENgland v NZ - 9:30 pm (Sat)
PNG v Australia - 9:00 pm (Sun)

Can you believe this shit?! Nothing short of a disgrace.

If the programming is similar, you blokes up there will be getting alot of these games anywhere from a 1.5-3 hour delay.

And did I mentioned ads, ads and more bloody ADS!

 

[Fozz]

They've been advertising the Australia/PNG game at 8:30 Sunday here. 7:55 (local) Kick off in Sydney so that would be a 1.5 hour delay if they started covering from kick off. Which they won't. There is nothing that says Rugby League like 1/2 hour of 2 hour delayed gibbering from Gus Gould and co.

Bloody NEIN!

 

[ethos]

Yeah it's an absolute joke.

The games are being telecast live all around the world, and even on the internet, and yet we can't get them live on TV in Australia.

 

[Crazy Sam]

can watch tonight's game live (i.e. now) at http://www.justin.tv/thumperstu


also http://bigpondvideo.com/ -> sport -> RLWC08 -> Live -> watch live

it's a better link than that ridiculous pop up one linked from the official world cup site that cuts out every 5 seconds.

 

[Nashy]

Gallop needs to sack them.

 

[Sabu_2008]

We're getting it live here. Every game too. Cant complain ;-)

 

[Fozz]

I'd move to NZ but I'm too lazy.

 

[Black Philip]

Is it just me, Or is the opening ceremony already reeking of "Look at how great we are" ? God that pisses me off.
