Channel 10 have a sports only channel starting soon.

Just wondering what sport people are most interested in watching?

Mine would have to be NFL, College Football and Major League Baseball...which have all been confirmed for the new channel.

NBA, AFL and Cricket.

Well AFL and Cricket are pretty much a given for me too.

Im pretty sure they have the IPL again.

NBA is always good to see.... just hope its not littered with Eastern states rubbish like NRL and Union....

I doubt they'd have the Eastern states union as they're owned by C9 and C7 at the moment.
Personally I'd love for some English Super League as Foxtel have dropped the ball in that area in recent years IMHO.
The other sport I miss which used to get good coverage on Foxtel is Hurling.

Hopefully they put sports like European Handball and Volleyball and stuff on...the only time we get to watch them is during the Olympics

Lacrosse

Jelly wrestling and Foxxy Boxing also

here is what I posted in another thread a few weeks ago

Handball is great. Love it!! What about that goal at the end of the game in the Olympics? One of the best i have seen. Would be great to watch it more regularly

NASCAR sprint cup will be shown on this channel ten channel, but a week after the race. The nationwide series will be shown live tho. Foxtel have the rights to the Sprint cup.

Not sure on baseball either as ESPN have the rights to that aswell. maybe im wrong on baseball ?

Would love to see some Serie A or Bundesliga.

As Pidge says, Handball is a ripper !

ESPN also have some rights to NBA & NFL games but Ten HD are showing both of those sports. Obviously they cant show the games ESPN do but i think Ten are picking up the rights to one of the American Channels NBC or CBS or something like that.

Ten HD are showing Celtics Vs Lakers today (replay tonight i think)

Ten have been showing ESPN NFL games so not sure why they couldnt show NBA?

Yes, yes i did MT79...

It went into OT with the Lakers getting up by 1. I think it was Boston's first loss at home in 20 odd games.

Kobe was good with some long range 3's but there were no real stand outs. Garnett was fouled out early in the last quarter.

Will be watching the Lakers v Cavs replay tonight, Kobe v LeBron will be pretty awesome
