Re: Demetriou said Sydney and West Coast
Wonder if 10 will show it live into Sydney if that is the case. If they don't, it will go down as the stupidest decision in the history of the VFL going national.Originally posted by Snowy

I'd expect Channel Ten would show this game live into Sydney if it were Friday night.
You can be sure that 10 would promote the hell out of it to make it worth their while as well.
The league game is Brisbane vs Penrith - the fact it's not 2 Sydney teams will help our cause."As everyone knows our style of football is defensive and unattractive, and as such I have completely forgotten how to mark or kick over the years" - Brett Kirk

Our preliminary final against Brisbane last year was slaughtered in the TV ratings by the NRL final in Sydney between Canberra and the NZ Warriors.Originally posted by hammo

true but 70k were at the ground ... only 10k would go to melb at best - so that 60k more viewers and its only a normal NRL round ie not a finalOriginally posted by Beaussie

It's still not 2 Sydney teams, it's only 1 unless they moved Brisbane...Originally posted by Bart

Anyhow, 10 has a good record in showing Swans games live or on short delay, regardless of the impact on ratings.
Unlike 9 they seem to be serious about giving AFL decent exposure in Sydney."As everyone knows our style of football is defensive and unattractive, and as such I have completely forgotten how to mark or kick over the years" - Brett Kirk
