CHANNEL 9’s head of Sport Steve Crawley this week gave an assurance to the Sea Eagles that he would ensure Manly was televised in rounds eight or nine after the club missed out on free to air coverage in the first seven rounds. Manly have a legitimate right to complain in my opinion and the manner in which they have stated their case impressed me.
“I will talk to Matt Callandar who represents Channel Nine in the match-day allocations and I’m certain Manly will appear,” Crawley said.
Crawley explained the process in which games are allocated.
Channel Nine get the Friday night choices from which one game must involve Brisbane, North Queensland or the Gold Coast for Queensland viewers. That leaves Fox with the next choice for Monday night before Nine get the Sunday allocation.
Meanwhile, Manly are fast becoming Monday night regulars with the round six game against Melbourne (away) and the round seven game against the Gold Coast Titans (home) both on Monday night football.

You should've looked at the AFL fixture before making those plans, as Etihad Stadium already had AFL games scheduled on both the Saturday and Sunday. So because Channel Nine didn't pick this as one of their Friday Night games, Monday night was the only remaining option.
