Football Timewarp

[Cap]

so its sunday and i have to listen to the radio so i can follow the AFL.

Or on TV i can watch the flashback and then a replay of the football.

why not since you paid 700 million for the right - play the live game live and the flashback delayed

because i'm not going to watch the ####ing live game on ####ing replay after having to listen to it you stupid ####ing idiots at ch.7

this is why i do not watch ch.7 full stop.

its like being back in the days of no football coverage and only the radio to listen to.

Agree. This only started halfway through this season though didnt it? I wonder why theyve changed the format.

yeah true but it still something other than ####ing flashbacks

@macca I think so, its still stupid you pay all this money for the rights and don't play it. I reckon its all going to foxtel next time with Ch.9 getting 2 games.

Nope done it since they got the rights last year. They delay the game so it runs into their news. That is the thinking anyway.

7 paid millions to cover 2 games a week and they show none of them live. I rarely watch any of their coverage for this reason. Friday nights I can't really be bothred watching because by the time it is midway through the 2nd qtr on the TV the agme is actually over.

The crazy thing is channel 7 head office had to be lobbied very heavily by the local station here to show the Crows and Power away games live. It was very close to not happening.

The only thing worse than watching delayed AFL on a Sunday afternoon is spending 4 hours trudging around a golf course and having an absolute horror of a round.

Nevertheless, 2 nice tee shots will keep Bosley coming back for more!

I continue to be amazed that I can watch the Trans Tasman Netball League live yet the biggest sport / league in the country denies us live coverage.
