Saints/Cats TV coverage - problem in Perth?

Post: # 750193Post Mr X from the West »

I've noted that Fremantle's game is on the same afternoon as our game v Cats and that Fox are covering that game. That also means that the Freo game will also get free to air coverage.

Given that the free-to-air carriers do not televise "live against the gate", does that mean that Channel 7 will NOT be showing Saints/Cats in Perth?

Nah don't even try. Listen to it on radio and then "kick back" and savour the victory replay!

This is the biggest load of crap i've ever heard

this occasionally happens but not in a situation like this. not getting too far ahead of ourselves but suppose we were both 14-0, surely the networks would realise on this occasion to do something about it

Might have to go to the karalee tavern although you wouldn;t be able to see anything with that many people there

Now I am extra glad that I am going to Melbourne for that game.
I am sure our private suite at the Karalee will be available for you to enjoy the game live
Rog will let you know in due coarse.

Not teams will or will ever be 14 - 0 going into round 14

Thats why we just got Fox. Best thing we have ever done, don't know why we didn't do it before.

Same here, weighed it up...can always switch off the sports package at the end of the season.

Fully ticketed now, Michelle, so make sure you book your seats. :)

Better make a decision quick, Cro. Would expect the game to sell out pretty quick, and would hate you to miss out.

Ye Western Australians of little faith. Shonky former Victorian, Roger will put everything right

And........If you thought he couldn't be less bearable, he might remind all of you one day that he and Luke Ball come from the same suburb....About 100 years apart :roll: :wink: !!

hey roger, i think there will be a lot more people at the karalee for this one than any normal game.....are they able to put the game on in the main pub area, cos i don't think everyone will fit into that room.


screw the dockers supporters who come down to the pub, this could well be the most anticipated home and away game ever

Would love to have fox but our budget only stretched to one or the other: memberships or pay tv. :cry: Three guesses which one we chose?
At least we can lob up to my brother in law's place when its a foxtel game, but still miss out on all the footy shows everyone talks about on here.

forget rnd 14 we will get that live

lets just take it one week at a time

rnd 11 v nth melb...live at the karalee is the place to be

as soon as the sirens sounded & we have put the 4 points in our pocket i'll check with 'our mate' regarding getting rnd 12 v carl fri night live

what a way to finish the working week (for some :cry: )

head down to the karalee straight after work & pig out on a feed of fish & chips as we take the bluebeggers to the cleaners

the fish & chips are the talk of the town but next time your down there check out the

steaks...servings bigger than ben hur or lenny hayes heart (if possible)
chicken dishes...finger licking good
pasta dishes...not my cup of tea but geez it looks a treat
ya could go on & on & on with their menu..can seeya all now drooling at the mouth

all washed down with a coldie or 2

seeyas there

Don't ask! Just be glad they do. I enjoyed the Swans game there in Round 1 - after half time anyway, especially the third quarter. Just think, our fortunes changed in a mere thirty minutes of football.

This is the same in sydney.
The swans are playing at 1.10 and fox and seven are covering the same game.
The AFL need to allow a bit of flexibility in there TV rights to suit the fans.
