Sports Tonight pisses me off

[lucablight]

I'm forced to sit through 10 minutes of AFL news before they move onto the rugby league. They really need to get their priorities straight. Don't they know what the major football code is in this state?

 

[UndertakerMike]

I think they do.....

Thats why NRL and ARL should work harder to be more rellevant to the rest of Australia.

 

[Bomber]

Channel Ten shares the FTA rights to AFL.
Channel Ten broadcasts Sports Tonight
It seems to me that they have indeed got their priorities right - they are going to give prominence to their own product over that of a rival sport which is broadcast on a rival station.

It sucks, but that's life.

 

[knights04]

Exactly.

 

[UndertakerMike]

We get FA on Channel 9 Sports news but then They have FTA AFL rights also. :roll:

 

[Matt23]

It's channel 10...easily the worst free to air station in Australia

 

[lucablight]

What difference does it make if they broadcast the AFL news after the NRL?

 

[Hari Kari]

they put the afl on first to make you watch longer.

kinda like eating your peas first.

[iggy plop]

Fancy starting a sports show with utter sh*t.

Oh well, that's life.

 

[aussies1st]

You are no hope of seeing the NRL highlights first if its on 10. They don't give a dam about NRL.

Well obviously they are going to talk up the sport they've invested big dollars in first rather then one thats broadcasted by their rivals.

 

[Everlovin' Antichrist]

Ten have a sports show?

TFFF.

Thank f**k For Foxtel.

 

[Baron Vo Mandor]

EA I honestly dont know how people live without it, I'd rather go without hot water during footy season then without foxtel.

You do realise that sports Tonight goes across Australia.

 

[PARRA_FAN]

Fox Sports news goes across Australia and Rugby League is usually the first sport.

 

[The Engineers Room]

It also happens on the sunday morning sports show on Channel 7. They have no TV rights to AFL. So that blows the promoting their product argument out of the water.
