    2007 Rugby World Cup - Television Coverage

    I have just heard a rumor that the TV coverage of the 2007 Rugby World Cup in France by Channel 10 isn’t going to be complete.

    They will only show 20 games. All the Wallabies Pool Matches, a few popular pool matches plus the Quarters, Semis and Final.

    lets hope the power stays up this time!

    I was in Dunsborough last year watching the final when at half time the whole of Dunsboroughs power went out.

    Everyone scrambled out to listen on the car radios. Created a pretty good atmosphere with everyone out in the streets screaming & shouting!

    Maybe you should get Foxtel.

    Understandable statement however, maybe the host broadcaster should do it justice rather than the usual lip service?

    To provide some further information about what I have heard. And I must stress this is all rumor. Foxtel "apparently" won't be getting broadcast rights either.

    I have some information for you all - as soon as i can reveal it I shall.

    Lets also not forget that no really gives a sh*t about our game now and that the ARU Showpiece event didn't even get shown live in a Super 14 team state

    But realistically didn't channel seven do soemthign similar in 2003 only show about 20 matches?? I'm pretty sure they did.

    yeah...isnt it cheeky that Channel 10 are doing saturation ad's to get the public help them to prevent the government making them do exactly what we want....ie...if you dont show it you lose it...

    I think the site they spruik is www.savemysport.com.au

    No i think that Foxsports has the inclusive rights for a lot of the smaller matches but the big matches are in the anti Siphoning list and are being used by channel 10.
