Appalled at Channel 9 (2 Viewers)

[pman]

9 have the 2012 olympics too

kill me now!

 

[whatashotbyseve]

they did aa better job of the summer olympics than 9 are doing of the winter

Are you serious?

Channel 7 are the kings of terrible live sport. Olympics coverage was terrible, tennis coverage was terrible. Nine will cover the Summer Olympics much better because it will be near 24/7 coverage, and their sporting coverage is much more professional. Nine (and Foxtel) probably wisely figure that if you want to want the Games, you will pay the $50 and watch them on Foxtel.

yes, but at least if you worked, you could see some of it and they didn't restrict live coverage to the middle of the day etc....Really ABC or SBS need the olympics

All I have to say is:
"Thank god SBS is hosting the FIFA World Cup this year!!"

 

[M3riJaan]

It's like 7 and 9 are trying to outdo each other in the failstakes. Ch7's coverage of the Australian Open went to the dogs this year and now Ch9 are jumping on the "screw the viewer" bandwagon ...

They dont work for you, they work for money.

Oh god. Channel 9 is bleeding awful. And seriously, 2012 olympics?!

ABC and SBS are marvellous channels. And they have none of that stupid shit the other channels have on the news.

 

[NoName91]

Anyone notice that everytime SBS gets given a large sporting programme (i.e. le Tour de France and the FIFA World Cup) their coverage is absolutely fantastic and ALWAYS live when it counts

 

[LordPc]

has anybody else noticed that channel 9 show virtually the same stuff in the morning and at night?

and when am i going to see some ice hockey and curling? yea, i know everyone makes fun of curling but id rather watch that than watch dozens upon dozens of athletes skiing down the exact same track

Has there even been a men's ice hockey match yet???!?

 

[NoName91]

Oh and another thing - I'm tracking the women's snowboard halfpipe online atm. Nine claim its live.. they are behind by literally half an hour, it's already well and truly over. Useless.

Give it to SBS.. along with Top Gear

yes, they have already played a handful of games but nine only show about 20 seconds worth of highlights at night

[KnifeySpoony]

[pman]
