Epic. Thanks SBS.
SBS proving to be the little Network that can. Picking up sports rights here and there. Yes, simulcasting quite a few but I think that’s going to be the way sports rights work going forward. Outside of netball and cricket I can’t think of a sport that is only FTA these days- and they both have online platforms to view them.
Congrats SBS, keep up the good work!
Get foxtel if you want to see the whole tournament
Pay $65 for the entire tournament in HD was what I’m fairly certain you meant to say ?
I would prefer to see all the games from the start of the tournament but it’s better then nothing I guess.
