The seven network coverage of the WC will be on one of their supplementary digital channels called "7MATE" (aimed at the dinky die true blue aussie beer-swilling bloke market) rather than the mainstream Channel 7 itself. Good to see RL marketing itself to it's true demographic constituency. |

I suppose it is a positive thing when aussie lads regard WC coverage aimed squarely at the dinky die true blue aussie beer-swilling bloke market constituency and nobody else. |

[quote="King Street Cat":1wa9s43t]Some might look at this as being harsh but I think it's fair. When are the Rugby League going to stop persisting with this fantasy expansion. If it hasn't worked by now, it never will! I'm all for reaching out to a wider audience with our game but not at the expense of historical clubs in the homelands.[/quote:1wa9s43t]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_6731.jpg |

Anti-siphoning laws only apply to games involving the senior Australian team but they don't apply here anyhow because 7MATE is a free-to-air broadcasting channel which has secured the rights ahead of any Pay TV networks. The Seven Network has also announced that all WC games shall be televised on it's minority 7MATE channel.
Despite RLWC2013 Tournament Director Nigel Wood and his compellingly overblown statement that rl"The tournament now has a compelling broadcast offer in both hemispheres"rl, it's rather disturbing news IMO that all WC games in Australia are to be shown on a minority interest blokes channel, whilst in the UK, they are all to be shown on the minority interest Premier Sports, apart from a handful of England games and the final to be shown on the BBC. Add in the lack of WC sponsorship thus far and it's clear we have fools running the operation.

*Deliberatley didn't go for a title sponsor, as they wanted to follow the UEFA Champions League model of having four key partners.
Marriott and Hertz are two of them. |

By the way Channel 7 is the top rated network in Australia.

How many do you think will turn up ? I heard there was a bit of fuss about Fax fans refusing to go because they 'don't support any RFL events', lol |

The "7mate" channel has a TV share rating of just over 2% and even less in Sydney. |

The RFL deliberately didn't go for a title sponsor for the RLWC, eh?
That must explain why they haven't got a title sponsor for SL then? They deliberately didn't go for one.
Well that's OK then 
RFL by plenty  |

Very Good!!!
Sky Sports 4 is a small channel with about 2% of the Sky figures, but you wouldn't moan if it was on Sky would you? |

There might be the odd negative comment thrown around but I imagine the real RL lovers will turn up. I haven't got my ticket for the Shay match yet but I have ordered 3 for the Wembley double-header. Even if every Fax fan turned up that's still only 1,500 on the gate. That's how thin on the ground we are now. We have applied to the WWF to get ourselves on the endangered species list  |
