People should be bagging the NRL, not channel 9. They should grow some balls and tell them how you want YOUR game televised.

If 9 must show a game at 4, why isnt it schedualled for 4?

Have a half hour pregame too. Fox is miles ahead in game coverage.

Its all about ad time.

Scrum - ad
Try scored - ad
Game stopage - ad

Plus all the on screen advertisement.

Agree re pre game as long as Fittler isn't a part of it!

It isn't scheduled at 4pm because on delay means 9 can have three minute ad breaks every 15-20 minutes, they can't do that if it's live. Again, the NRL should grow a set. Pisses me off that AFL fans get four live games every week on FTA, NRL fans get one. It's pathetic.

Plus all games live on pay tv (could be wrong).

Good Point.
Bye the way HB.
Do you know why when we post on the beer thread. It doesn't come up as a latest post ?

It does come up as a latest post but not in the General Discussion section that we are in now. The Beer Thread is in the Summertime Bar section. If you go there it will come up as the latest post.

good point... if we signed him for 500k, people would call it overs, but if he made us a million through his personality/marketing/footyshow ect, is it a bad deal?

there are pros and cons to the arguement, but i think it is better to take the risk on benji, than let him go to the storm and end up with ben roberts

i would prefer all games on fox sports much better coverage and less adds

to me, atm other than one game this season. we have not looked like scoring enough points.
with marshall in the team we should be able to score more points.
if marshall comes at reasonable price he is definately worth the risk.
if marshall and carney gel, we may have a very dangerous halves combination.

He might not costs too much if you read my 2:55 posts attachment .
Not saying we'd get him for 60K .
But could come cheap

That was for this year, we don't want to be paying 600k for next year.
