Nine, "the home of rugby league" got lucky this year that ANZAC day has fallen on a Thursday, and get to show the ANZAC clash between the Warriors and Storm as "Thursday Night Footy", as well as the Roosters and Dragons game during the day.
But what do they do in Melbourne? They play the failing AFL footy show in HD, and shove the Melbourne Storm onto GEM...
Sunday Football yesterday didn't even warrant being on GEM, it was pushed down to GO, behind the Fed Cup and "The Secret Life of Zoo" in HD
Add to that that nothing gets shown post-game, after the siren goes it cuts straight to some old movie or repeat!
Surely a Storm game in Melbourne would rate better than 99% of the stuff they choose to show instead? especially if it was in HD!
I don't get why Nine wouldn't want it in the first place, but if the NRL wants to help grow the game out of NSW and QLD should be demanding Nine to show games in high definition on the main channel in the other states!
