AAAHHHHHHHHHH now that I've Ive found all the bits to the foxtel control (that spread all over the loungeroom when it hit the wall at great velocity), I'm going to have a relaxing ale and watch france play the pacific islands.... which somehow makes me think didn't the french nuke the pacific islands in the 70s?

Normie, I discovered in a past life the
smashing th eremote into the wall at great velocity is of no assistance whatsoever.

So much for good coverage for the poor country souls... AD break every 5 seconds! Jeezz. Or have I watched FOX for too long? Sigh. WE STILL WON!

[jargan83]

so it was live untill the first break in play?

Nope. We got kickoff at 12am/pm (or just midnight) and it finished at 2. It was so stupid, when the touchie went to talk to the ref an AD would come on and I didn't know what was being said half the time! Stupid TV... But they broadcast it, so that is ok

[Burgs]

They slotted single ads in like cricket coverage Jargs, except a shortened halftime.

[jargan83]

still sounds ordinary. Cricket there is actually a break in play, switch of ends between overs. A break in play for a touch judge to come and chat to the ref isnt the same

Yeah, more I meant it was "live" as in continuous, not paused for the single advert each time, rather than live to air. Seeings it was from the can I would have preferred if they had paused the footage rather than cutting in, roll on Rugby Channel...
Was wondering how it worked for cricket

[oxleymoron]

I have just watched most of the replay on Ch10 this arvo. It is still going, but I have had enough . There has been about 7-8 minutes of gametime cut out from the coverage. When they have cut to an ad break, the play starts again from a set piece that was not where the coverage was prior to the ad break.

The best example of this is in the 2nd half, where Gits kicks a penalty at about the 57 minute mark. When the coverage resumed from the ad break, the game clock was 62 minutes.

channel 10, you're just channel 7 in wolf's clothing.

I'm hoping the frogs game is on Foxtel.

[jargan83]

it will be i believe
