I am a bit worried about this..

I haven't heard anyone on Nine's team about the Four Nations being broadcast on FTA...

Can't find any TV guides that go that far forward..No sites..No ads..Nothing..

Can anyone confirm that Nine will indeed show the Four Nations and by that I mean ALL matches..

I'm sure that I heard Vossy say that they were playing all 4 Nations games. I Don't think the commited to "live" though. They also advertised Aus V NZ as an upcoming event after the GF.

Looks like I'll be in Adelaide the weekend of the Final. Any chance it will be shown there?

Yeh, I heard the Twickenham Stoop match mentioned..Is good if Vossy has said ALL matches will be televised..

At probaly 0600, I don't care too much about "live" just as long it's broadcast.. :lol:

I reckon if they showed a replay on a Sunday afternoon it would rate very well. This is football season comedown time and everyone will be craving a bit of footy at this time of year. no matter what code they support.

If you take the station manager hostage, and shoot at least two other hostages, you may get a replay after the zumba infomercial.

I worry about the non-Aussie games, especially France v NZ. We've never got any games from France before so I'm not expecting Nein to give us anything now.

BBC are showing England-Australia and France-NZ IIRC. Sky are showing the rest.

Its good though that the BBC are showing the main match (from our POV over here). I think 1992 was the last time FTA over here showed a GB-Aus game. Thats a long time between drinks.

1994 was the last time the BBC showed a GB v Australia test series, although they exclusively showed the 1995 World Cup a year later held here. The BBC got wrangled in the Super League split in 1997 and thats when Sky nabbed rights and have shown tests exclusively ever since until now.

It's England v Australia and France v Australia being shown by the BBC. Those two games kick off at 2:30pm Saturday Afternoon here so they would be 1:30am Late Saturday in Sydney if shown Live. These games are not Live on Sky as well so you can expect to get the BBC coverage of those games.

The rest of the games are Live on Sky here including Australia v New Zealand which kicks off at 7:30pm on a Saturday Night here (before our clocks change) so if shown Live I make that 5:30am Sunday Morning in Sydney.

I think Queensland times would be an hour earlier?
