Channel Nine Perth is pleased to announce it will be screening the State of Origin match to Perth fans on Wednesday 24th May from 9.30pm from Telstra Stadium, Sydney.

Channel Nine Perth’s Program Manager Rob Pedretti says, “This is the first time in a number of years that we have telecast the ‘State of Origin’ in this earlier timeslot. This is a great opportunity for rugby league fans to show their support for this game and its prime time telecast in this state by watching next Wednesday.”

or 11.30pm AST, nearly 4 hours behind NSW/Qld's LIVE coverage. Still better than a kick in the teeth no doubt and I bet cos789 will be ringing up complaining about this:D

It's much better than the usual 2.15am (or some other god-awful time) replay!!!

Hopefully next year we might get the Sunday arvo game with 9 having no AFL to show.

That is excellent news considering it is NSW vs QLD and it is still be shown in other states. It is a top-line game but I doubt it would evoke anywhere near the passion of the New South Welshman or the filthy Queenslanders.

GO THE BLUES!!!
