Basketball-commonwealth games-tv

It's a disgrace that we can't watch the games or highlights on channel 9. Absolutely nothing. The ones with Foxtel have to pay and extra 50.00 for 2 weeks to get 6 extra channels with the basketball, lawnbowls and gymnastics on it. I don't care about lawnbowls or gymnastics want b-ball and i am not paying 50 dollars for it. WHY can't Fox replay it maybe after the games or nine to do the match replayed a week after, a month after i don't care. I want to watch Australia thrash every other team.


Someone should start a petition to get b-ball replayed later on FOXSPORTS or channel 9 (i'm not good at it)

When you say finals will be on tv, do you mean Free to Air? I'm with Cornesy - payTV is ridiculous.

I would pressume that the Foxtel package would show just about EVERY Boomers and Opals game - excluding that shown by Channel 9.

Channel 9 will probably only show the Medal games LIVE and the other Finals games delayed in the middle of the night.

I think you will find that with the basketball in regional venues, only one stadium (Geelong I think) is TV suitable.

Dennis Commetti and Phil Smyth are going to be commentating Nine's coverage of the basketball at the games, what games are shown however, I do not know.

Look in the TV Guide for what games are being played. We get a few womens games on ch9 and as for mens games we seem to have a few NZ games.
