Have to admit, I miss watching league on Saturday afternoons. Adelaide started getting the ABC telecasts in the early 90's when the commentators were Warren Boland, Arthur Beetson, John Peard and Debbie Spillane. Manly got quite a few home games that I got to watch and one that will always stand out was the day we thumped Western Suburbs 66-8 in 1994. Cliffy was on fire playing halfback that day.
Adelaide ABC were getting the coverage a lot earlier than that HoldenV8. I was down there doing my rookies at RAAF Edinburgh in 1980 and us New South Welshmen and Queenslanders were watching the 3pm Saturday games back then too.
