Free-to -Air TV Games

Just remembered re the Melbourne game - how much time 7's coverage spent on Jim Steynes accompanied by the hushed reverential worshipping tone of the commentators usually reserved for the Abletts - saying the same thing over and over - or was that from some other coverage. NB It's the coverage amount and style I object to, not Jim Steynes himself.

Also, don't forget that the game is now being held up by the commercials. The bounce after each goal is only made after the umpire gets the all clear from the commentary box. So, instead of the stations fitting in with the game, the game fits in with the broadcasters.
