FT 1-0 England

Optus

I think channel 7 is only showing 15 of the 64 games... Pitiful

 

[Wombat]

England were very poor in that game.

 

[true believer]

the japanese were superb to watch .for 2 of the goals .
the winger arced the ball away from the defender and back on to the strikers foot .
just magnificent

I had $50 on the Japs, so my World Cup is off to a decent start.

a side with sniper passes and pace like the japs ,will cruel the poms

Typical Channel 7. They only really wanted the Matildas games despite having four channels. They are showing reruns of Better Homes and Gardens and Border Patrol on 7mate while Optus has matches on.

Typical Channel 7

Did Optus even want to sell them? They're the ones that have paid big money for the rights and on sold some games to 7. My biggest complaint about 7 is they dont make it easy to see a full list of the games they do have.

This is exactly right. I have a friend who is on the executive at Channel 7. He said Optus only allocated them six pool games. They weren’t given more despite trying to negotiate for more.

It's my understanding FTA channels have first dibs on major sporting events, before streaming publishers get involved. 7 could've owned the streaming rights if they wanted too

 

[sydmariner]

Why didn’t SBS bid for the rights like they do for every Men’s/Women’s World Cup, they’d’ve shown every game live.

Only if they are on the anti siphon list. Don't think the WWC is

Not on the anti-siphon list

 

[FFC Mariner]

Not on the anti-siphon list

Interesting but the list only states FIFA WC but not gender.
Australia games and the final are FTA but nothing else
