Coverage of World Cup

[ozenzud]

Does anyone know who has the rights to the world cup? Is it the Maori Channel or something.

I just saw the Sky ad for Oct and no mention of the world cup. None, nought, nothing.

I know it kicks off at the end of Oct 26th of something. If it were the yawion world cup they'd be all over it.

Over here it is Channel 7 which regionally is Prime. I don't think, however, that it is still related to your Prime, as it now owned by SKY.

I just assumed Sky would have it

It's a shame it will most likely not be on FTA live like it is here in Australia especially as ETNZ had a lot of FTA coverage.

I think Australia are ripe for the picking again, Melbourne's 3 are tired, Inglis may not play, ASADA may strike while it's on meaning any player picked once the comp starts can't be replaced.

It'll be an England v NZ final IMO

Good to have Vossy back on Australian tv again

Not so good for Aussie fans that halligan will be his co-pilot i think...

 

[SilentOne]

I doubt it, will probably be another Aussie.

 

[ozenzud]

Well thats good. Now if they could give it some promo, that would be even better!

 

[shiznit]

I doubt it, will probably be another Aussie.

They mentioned it on 40/20 last night...

Voss and Halligan were going to be the call team apparently.
