Channel Nine NRL Ratings Plummet

[Harvies elbow]

That will never happen, the numbers don't add up , far more FTA viewers than pay so the NRL would always sign a multi level broadcast agreement.

Streaming is probably the way of the future, so it will be interesting to see how this develops.

Already I can stream all games free to my Telstra run mobile phone and IPad, and with Telstra NBN at home I can stream all games to my Telstra TV.

I however have Foxtel Sat, as I can take a box with me when I travel and watch games anywhere ( and places where there's def no internet ), so it will probably continue to be a mixture for some time.

Plus the Foxtel HD telecast is the ducks nuts, far far better than streaming but I imagine as that progresses you'll get the same quality ( as I already stream Netflix in HD).

Is there a help page do do this through my Rank Arena and Nokia ?

The panel needs refreshing an Erin needs a boobjob that will get every body watching

 

[Johnno74]

Sorry just spent a week on Gold coast ,still fresh in my mind

 

[The '47ers]

Yair, Madge should have pulled him off at half time...

That was pre-game

Erin had her boobs done 2 years ago

Nine are like a pile of old cow dung - cold, irrelevant & full of sh#t!

Q. What's transparent and lies in the gutter?

A. A Channel 9 NRL commentator with the sh-t kicked out of him (or her).

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

It's because Yvonne Sampson has left.
She was a shining light on 9's coverage IMHO

Whyvonne, why?

She never really worked out what to do with her hair. Must have had the same stylist as Tracey Grimshaw.

 

[Johnno74]

Lovely lady but needs a refund lol

 

[KOMORI]

When the commentators spend half their time having a circle jerk over cam or billy or Greg, and they are playing the donkeys week in week out.. it's just not worth watching.

Over here in Perth channel 9 are rat**** compared to the new fox league channel. I for one love it as I can keep up to date with what is going on in NRL world

 

[Lord Eagleton]

Much the same as the first article, but its just nice seeing reports of Fox Sports making ground on Nine

What's her hair got to do with it, at least she could compere and was refreshing...unlike the current drones 🙁

The only thing I didn't like about Yvonne Sampson on Nein was that to me she seemed bored, or at least less interested, when there was no Qld team playing.

I agree that ch 9 are pretty useless.

I've got nothing personal against Ray Warren, I think he's done an excellent job throughout his career, but it's kinda obvious he is due for a nice retirement, or at least not having to commentate in real time - he can't keep up.

Q: How do you confuse Ray Warren with player names?
A: Have a team with more than one Polynesian player in it.

No help page on my Commodore 64, sorry

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

**** channel Nein, never watch their **** shows or their crap news readers , or even crappier sports people.

After what Gyngell said 5 years ago I hope it dies in a pile of stinking ****!!

 

[midsteyne]

I hate ch9, the old days were horrendous. No live games at all, I'll never forget the crap service. Fox just kills them in every aspect, they actually cater for the fans which is the whole point!!

Free to air footy has been crap since Rex retired

 

[Top End Eagle]

It's the cross-promotion stuff that was final nail. To hear these guys talking about bloody 'House Husbands' is demeaning and disgraceful but worst and most embarrassing of all is the vigour with which Rabs the consumate endorsement King applied himself.

I know it's everywhere and on all platforms now but that kind of fake enthusiasm really irks me.

It's a joke, Joyce.

She sounded as drone-like as any of them, with that flat nasal monotone.

Rugby League on CH-9 is so bad it's on the same level as the CH-9 Footy Show , both horrendous.
