Channel 10 shat me to tears on the weekend anyway. After stopping in at a friends house on the way home from some local footy I seen the Port vs West Coast match with a delay that was so late it was hardly worth it.
I was eager to watch the inaugaral Gold Coast match afterwards, the screen even displayed a 20 minute countdown til start time. We packed the kids up, got in the car and wanted to watch it at home, we had triple m on thinking we'd be listening to the pre-match preview and bang, we heard the half-time scores.
FTA footy coverage is rank, kids have to stay up til midnight on a friday night to watch their team play, great going channel 7 considering a lot of these kids will be playing at 8am Saturday morning.
Give the rights to a channel that will show live matches.
