I am disgusted by Ch9's coverage in non-League states. How their heads can be so far up their own arses is amazing to me.

I have Imparja. Have done so since about June/July. It is a VAST improvement on Ch9. Imparja is a station that knows how to be impartial with it's sports. League and aussie rules get even amounts of coverage on the news and ad breaks. The two sports are shown in prime-time - usually one after the other. Yes, there's more aussie rules on Imparja than the NRL, but that's simply because aussie rules has more games on free-to-air than League does.

Even still, the Tigers-Cowboys game was on at 9:30pm (WA time) on Imparja and 11pm (WA time) on country WA's WIN station. I'm about to have a look at the tv guide as to when the other 3 games are on this weekend, but they're not live as I would've liked. The Grand Final will be (as was the 3 Origins), but I'll be at the GF itself, so I won't be able to make use of it then.

In summary, I suggest that Imparja is the way to go.
It rocks!
