Congratulations channel 7

[welshrugbyfan]

Congratulations channel 7 for providing the stupidist comment of the day. There complaint on page 2 of todays paper about how rugby doesn't rate and only 30,000 people tuned into to a game that was already finished when it was finally shown on FTA just goes to show what mindless idiots are running this station.

Well done channel 7 for making me laugh today, at YOU!!!

ahahahahahaahahah

[jono]

and because the west didnt announce the time change...

[tragic]

So, TWFers were shockingly prescient AGAIN? We should be Ch7 programmers

i had a read of that last night and may i say it was the biggest piece of bullshit journalism i've read lately.

Congratulations channel 7, just when i though my opinion of your Basil Zempilas nose loving, AFL worshiping, West Coast propaganda spreading station couldn't get ANY lower, you provide me not only with a laugh, but have also vindicated my firm belief that stupidity is indeed contagious. It would appear that at C7 headquarters it is reaching epidemic proportions.

If you think that by moving the Rugby a token 2 hours earlier (still delayed by almost 4 hours), not advertise the change, and think that the Rugby crowd you are attempting to appease won't watch the game LIVE on foxtel be it at home or the pub??

C7 Perth = stupid, and owned by the AFL (nicest thing i could say on a PG rated forum)

comes down to it GAYFL is number 1 - 99 on there view of sport in Australia, and the other 1 spot is taken up by "rugby, motorsport" (both sports they screwed over with coverage)

Its funny is it not, the highest crowd figures at subi oval this year is the rugby international recently and western force vs crusaders game, but still we have no coverage.. 4 hours delayed, I mean really do we need to even have it on TV if its this stupidity.

What's going to happen to the olympics, is that going to be delayed for hours cause GAYFL is continuing. I dont think so !!

[brokendown gunfighter]

The Olympics coverage will consist of many hours of advertising interrupted by a few minutes of sport

there is a follow up to yesterdays article in todays paper, on page 2 again. Apparently "The West Australian" had some rather fiery emails and phone calls about this yesterday

the only reason i was able to watch the game because i was injured so i didnt go out. luckily i didnt because like most i had programmed my recorder for 1150pm then to my amazement i turned over too channel 7 to see that the bledisloe was 5minutes into it.

so can someone explain what happened with the change in timeslot?

[Swee_82]

pruc, by the sounds of the stuff in IC in the paper today you weren't the only one who didn't know about the timeslot change- only reason some of us did was because of the correspondence a few have been keeping with the idiots at channel 7 programming, who infomed us directly that they would be 'experimenting' with putting the game on a 4-hour delay, rather than 6- remind me to never play poker with these people, they can obviously spout of all manner of crap without batting an eyelid.

The change in time was noted inside the large picture displaying figures int he Saturday paper I believe.....it wasn't pointed at, just showed the 9:55pm channel seven change.

but still we have no coverage.. 4 hours delayed, I mean really do we need to even have it on TV if its this stupidity.

Benny Anti-Siphoning laws state that yes we DO have to have it on TV, this is the only reason Perth residents without pay tv actually get to view the match at all!
