Message: [QUOTE="abashii, post: 2713154, member: 8686"] [B] Fair call on most of your points but I can't agree with this one. Both Friday night games had an ~8pm kickoff which meant the fans could actually turn up, and if you could avoid looking at your phone (and in a few cases, avoiding the Nine news update broadcast out of Sydney revealing the winner of the delayed game) you could kick back and watch rugby league from 7:30 until midnightish. Now most fans will have difficulty making the first Friday game and the only people who can actually settle in for a night of NRL will be those privileged enough to have Foxtel. We've gone from "Friday night's a great night for football" to "Friday evening, or the late afternoon in the warmer months, is a moderately okay time for football if you finish work nice and early and have access to cable television. But we don't expect anyone to actually turn up to the game live. P.S. Only Qld teams plus the Warriors will be saddled with this dog of a slot so the Friday free to air game will almost always be a Sydney game." and I don't think that's an improvement.[/b] [/QUOTE]
