i have enjoyed getting up for this game for the last few years, does anyone know if channel 9 are showing the game live? fox sports always gave this game some good advertisement in the lead up and did a good job of presenting it, surely 9 wont have it on delay on sunday at midnight!

It honestly wouldn't suprise me if they did, might be time to start probing for an answer/to put the pressure on. It'll be the highest attendance for a RL game all year, that's saying something. If it's not live I'll be disgusted.

its on at its usual 12.30am monday morning time, which means we will miss all the pre match entertainment and if you are taping it on IQ all the timing will be wrong. i hate channel 9, why buy the rights in the first place? i suppose another phone call is in order, not that they will ever learn!

I have written an email to someone who might be happy to have a dig at channel 9, Matty Johns.


great stuff, the more we get it out there, the more chance they will chow it live. it has worked in the past, im pretty sure it was either this game or the super league gf that was moved because of the amount of phone calls from people from these boards!

Just spoke to some lady in sport at channel 9. She said there had been a number of calls wanting the match on live and they would see what they could do.

If the game is not going to be shown live on 9 can someone PM with a place that I can stream the game? Cheers.

This is just so disappointing, do they have to pay extra fees or something to screen it live? It just doesn't make any sense at all.

What time will it be on in Sydney time? If I wanted to find an 'alternative' source to watch it live...
