Of course not. As I said earlier - I would hope they would schedule games for the same time slot in different cities. So if there was a game on at Parra at 2:00 pm on the Sunday afternoon, then hopefully the other 2:00 pm game could be played in Brisbane, or Melbourne etc. Wouldn't it then be more feasible to broadcast different matches live into different markets? Nine used to do this for their two Friday night matches.You're using the NFL as your basis. That won't work here and won't last in the NFL in the long term.
If Parra is hosting a game that doesn't sell out, there is no way that they could delay broadcast for just Parramatta and not Penrith. Think.
There should never be 2 games played at the same time, and I doubt there ever will be again. No one pays for delays.
I wonder if we might get a Friday night 8pm game next year?
I reckon the Warriors should get the 6pm time slot every time they play at home
It will be 8pm there and let's face it there isn't a lot of TV demand for them here.
You know it makes sense.
take it from a league tragic living on the outskirts of auckland, a decent night timeslot for a game would be awesome, the 9.50pm kickoffs take their toll on thursday/monday night footy if you need to get up at stupid clock for workIf they do an anz / brookvale 6pm game we will see games draw in the 3,000 range...
Perth reds idea is good, put all games on in NZ, be it Warriors, home or away games..
Cant have delayed games in this age
Why not? In the EPL and NFL I doubt you can watch every game live. Who has the time to do that anyway? I struggle to find the time to watch more than 1 whole game live over the weekend.

Actually if you read my post again you will notice I have said when they play at home.Thing is in a 26 round competition, the Warriors only have 12 home games. What do you do for the other 14 rounds? This is where your suggestion falls down,
