A show on ESPN tonight at 9.00pm called "Cheika's Wallabies - Hope of a Nation". Might be worth a watch.

 

[RugbyReg]

Good to see they've gotten rid of that damn QANTAS Wallabies moniker and finally got something appropriate.

Thanks for the tip. As a tip in return if you can catch a replay the John Eales reveals life after sport on the discoverey chanel was interesting.

Before you get too carried away, bear in mind it's got Growden asking the questions:

"ESPN is proud to announce an exclusive 1-hour special - Cheika's Wallabies: Hope of a Nation - premiering on ESPN Weds Sept 9 at 9pm AEST (11pm NZ). ESPNscrum's leading rugby expert Greg Growden goes one-on-on with the Wallabies coach in this exclusive special that gives a rare insight into the intriguing personality of Australia's head coach."

Embedded in a Growden piece entitled "Lopsided score smokescreen, Wallabies diabolical for much of match against USA Eagles". Y'all have been warned........

I haven't watched this yet but I do think human interest pieces or interviews are the sort of thing Growden does well.

The further removed from technical rugby discussion the better for him.

Watching the RWC preview on NBC Universal - not looking forward to the commentary so much. US 'analysts' haven't picked up on our 2 teams approach and were saying we'll have to play our best team in every match to get out of the pool. Oh and one guy keeps referring to Muliaina as "Mula-no-no" for some reason.

 

[Braveheart81]

Fox Sports 2 has rugby union, 24 hours a day.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

Not sure that this is the right thread, but I think this is good news for Australian Rugby, although most of it has already been discussed elsewhere.

Am I reading too much into this that NRC will be around for another 5 years (total of at least 7 years, not just the 5 years Fox & ARU originally committed to).

Fans will be treated to live coverage of Rugby Championship, with clashes between the Rugby World Cup semi-finalists, the All Blacks, Springboks, Wallabies and Argentina, as well as domestic matches from the Southern Hemisphere featuring Super Rugby, ITM Cup, the Currie Cup, and the National Rugby Championship.

 

[TOCC]

Yes, I remember reading the initial agreement between Foxtel and the ARU was a 2 year contract with Foxtel having the option for a further 5 years through to 2020.

On a separate note, the ACC has finally approved the Foxtel and Channel 10 tie-up, Foxtel now owns a 15% stake in Channel 10, its yet to be seen if this will lead to any sharing of content.. but that is Super Rugby/NRC best chance of getting on FTA.

It'll be back after RWC
