I just checked on the net and the earliest us people in melbourne get our game this week is 7am and only if we have fox. If you don't have pay tv yuo miss out all together, i guess the ony way to watch us go all the way is set a couple grand away to fly up to sydney (or brisbane in this instance) come finals time and if we win you should make it home to watch it on tv.
Go the mighty storm.

Just rang the Storm & it was indicated 9 will not even consider a live broadcast & they weren't sure what time the delayed telecast would start.In respect to live coverage we should know by Wednesday what venue/s will be doing it.Typical channel 9.

I am sure the Rising Sun Hotel in Richmond will show the match live with their feed from NT.

Let's not forget that Channel Nein has in the past stomped Imparja for allowing their broadcast into Melbourne. I think it's happened at Origin time once or twice.

I don't see how bloody regional Victoria can get the game at 9:40pm sat night and metro melb doesn't. No logic really

I'm not sure why - but I know that some hotels were unable to show SoO a few years back because they forced Imparja to blackout the broadcast. If only anti-siphoning worked they way we hoped!

In the case of SoO I presume the blackout was because Nein were showing it delayed. This is a different situation as currently Nein have shown total lack of interest in showing both of the Saturday night finals matches.

Only way I can see to rectify this is for us all to bombard the Herald Sun and The Age with letters/emails to draw attention to this pathetic stance by Channel Nein.
