South Australian NRL Coverage by Channel 9

[Haynzy]

Yep some places are jerks about it. Marion Hotel has always been great in letting us watch the games, as they used to sponsor our league team.

Cheers, I'll have to remember that.

ever get a reply from Greenberg on twitter?

Most larger sports bars are willing to put it on for you on a screen no one is watching without the sound. Sucks I know but it's the best you'll get.

Cheers for that mate. I watched the Eels/Cowboys at a sports bar called Alma or something and also managed to watch the other 2 games that day.

Sound was down, but so were the other tvs.

Nothing. I sent multiple tweets too. He was too busy retweeting celebs tweets about the NRL to reply to a fan.

No worries, glad you got to see some games.

I've mailed a copy of the petition with 555 signatures (now has 565) and comments to the NRL, Channel 9 Adelaide and David Gyngell at Channel 9.

Also sent a media release to news limited about it with the petition link.

See if it gets some attention now.

 

[El Diablo]

why not Fairfax as well?

 

[Zigwaa]

I don't think Gyngell will be replying, seems a bit busy at the moment fighting his own battles :lol:

Signed it bra.

Never really go in for these internet things as they achieve nothing, sorry to say, but being a fellow non-League state resident I understand the pain.

 

[Zigwaa]

Cheers mate. It may not get anywhere but I had to do something more than sending letters of complaint.

It really is pathetic of Channel 9 and the NRL.

I lived in Adelaide for 4 years. It really is a shithole.

Noticed at the end of last weeks FNF broadcast when they do the promo for next weeks game, they removed the GEM broadcast time for Adelaide viewers which was there in previous weeks

That doesn't bode well for us then.

I've read that regional South Australia are still getting it live on GEM, just not Adelaide. That pretty makes it the most insular place in the country, what a joke.

Who owns 9 in Adelaide? Seems like they're scared of something...
