Maybe a sign the times are a changing? Excellent Covg in the West of todays presentation, started at 8:30am with Footy show, Holden cup and state game on GEM then over to Ch9 for main game.Sadly we dont get to see the trophy presented but that is the last bit of the jigsaw. Best coverage in WA for 20 years! Have they done the same in Vic, SA and NT?

In Alice Springs we get Imparja Queensland coverage so we get all the games on nine as well as the Sunday Qld cup game. So today we get coverage all day. I'm pretty sure it's the same in Darwin.

Yeh, 90% of the way there, just the presentation to go lol! Around 125k would be a good result. Weather crap,today in perth so may be more in front of tv. Lots of clubs and pubs got gf events on though so plenty of WA RL fans will be watching not at home.

I watched the GF at the new sports bar in Northbridge and there was pretty good crowd.

Crowd was not happy when channel 9 cut off the presentations for their news. They could have least kept the telecast going on Gem but no some stupid gardening show.

144k apparently, excellent result for the West. Bigger audience than many afl games get here. Now give us a club Smith!

Fox sports failed to show the Holden Cup presentation which sucked, but that was mainly caused by some hopeless refs who couldn't make a call and a video ref who seemed hell bent on getting the Broncos home.

Great coverage of the main game on 9.

We got the same in Adelaide. Pity I didn't see any advertising for the Gem stuff though. Positive steps indeed.

In Tassie we got first two games on GEM. Coverage then went to WIN and we got it all (yes the trophy presentation as well).

Meanwhile the first TRL club is about to announce it will fold and all due to Affiliated STate's negligence.

m8.

Two on one strip and an obstruction.
I think the video ref shared around the stuff ups.

I agree with you on how incompetent the refs were at making a decision on the field though, a couple of calls the ref was right in front of the supposed try.

Good to see Perth rating well though.
