RLWC Media Watch

Sweet. Pity I'll be at work, unless I chuck a sickie *cough cough*.

Someone needs to tell Channel 7 that Wrexham is in Wales, not England (their preview had England). Anyway, back to the big issues...

Good news they are showing replays, obviously the WC is doing well for 7

Hahaha that's brilliant

 

[Misanthrope]

Smart bit of marketing. The Wiggles probably get more play over there than any official rugby league outlet is likely to.

I noticed that one of the Wiggles' twitter account is essentially devoted to the Tomahawks (well it was on Sunday when the game was on). Do you think they are paid for that, or he's just a rugby league tragic? I am assuming it's the latter and as such it's a handy person to have on board.

Wow. No words. :lol: The Wiggles have changed...

The Anthony Field rugby league influence strikes again.

He loves the game. Great stuff.

Not one ounce of RLWC news in the Courier Mail today bar the scores. Newsltd disgrace.

Pretty sure Anthony (the blue one) is a massive Tigers fan.

That's correct.

The media coverage of the RLWC has been pretty poor here in Australia. Sometimes I wonder if the Cup is even on.

Don't get to watch much TV bar in the morning before work. I usually have ABC24 on, and they dead set give it 15 seconds of coverage during the sports announcements... Pathetic. No doubt channel NEIN have also been brushing over it by being spiteful merkins.

I don't know if it has been mentioned elsewhere but the World Cup is being broadcast throughout the subcontinent on Ten Sports. It is one of the biggest cable sports channels in Asia. I've been watching the games from Sri Lanka and Nepal.
