Sky Cam

[simon says]

Just plain stupid, the worst invention ever. Why did they use it?

Twice they showed tries on that stupid angle, I felt like I didnt know where I was.

P1ss it off its hopeless, just like Channel 9.

Well said.I thought the whole coverage was a bloody joke.On the skycam,it really is hopeles,we would have the ball,and then would switch to it and you couldnt tell where the f**k the players weremyou could be 5 metres out and it would look like oyu were on the 20.All the people at my place would scream every time the sky cam cam eonn"GET IT OFF"...

Some other classic edting moments were the camera focusing on Billy Slater walking back to FB while a fight was on,and the constant shots of the coaches and players waiting to come on the filed while the game was on.....not to mention the constant ads and promos gong on and blocking a third of the screen.

Cmon MR Singleton,get that TV station and give us some faid dinkum footy coverage,this crap just isnt up to scratch.Cheers.

I remember in 2000 series they had a similar camera, called the sideline cam, problem was you couldnt tell whether they were close to the line or not. Glad they got rid of that one.

Skycam sucked, might work well in NFL but not in League, I kept thinking Lockyer was gonna hit it.
