TV Game on Channel Nine

Posted by slip on May 11, 2010 at 1:42pm

Penrith v Cronulla on Sunday. Is Channel nine serious??? I don't have a problem with Friday night Bulldogs v Dragons, but surely Manly v Parramatta is the Sunday game.

Monday night is a joke!

Hahaha...what's wrong with that? I'm sure it'll be a very high calibre game of rugby league.

  Are you serious? How do Cronulla get a TV game over Parra v Manly and even Tigers v Souths? Channel 9 are morons.

Im sorry SBBB but a traditional grudge match would have been my choice for the Sunday game, not knocking the Panthers and the Sharks, but i seriously doubt if its worthy of the TV match up. High Calibre game hahahahahaha, stop it my ribs hurt.

  I am actually joking ToMmYbOy and slip....even I can see that it would probably have been a wiser decision for channel 9 to put the Eels v Manly game on. I would prefer to see the Sharks v Dragons game on TV in a few weeks, as it is also a grudge match and on a Sunday too.

  Ya never know slip...next time it will be at home and they couldn't possibly do any worse than they did at Wollongong...could they?
  
  I will be at the game, so it doesn't really bother me personally if its on TV or not but I think it would be a better option for the Sharks fans who can't be there than a game against Penrith.

Perhaps there is some rule that says every team must have at least 1 free to air tv game every year to be fair to sponsors.

Maybe channel 9 thought they'd get it out of the way now while they are still a mathematical chance?

(just kidding I have no idea why)
