The Contenders


Coming soon: The ultimate World Cup 2010 preview series!

The 2010 World Cup will undoubtedly be the biggest sports television event of 2010.

As anticipation hits fever pitch, The Contenders is the perfect preview for the months leading into the event - a 20 part, half-hour series that previews all aspects of football's pinnacle event.

The series features in-depth analysis of all the competing nations, the major players and the preparation and excitement of the host nation, South Africa.

edit: whoops I probably should have stuck this in world cup general, move if you like

Gee why couldnt they play it prime time on the main chanel TV2.

It was good I must say, particularly liked the piece on Alberto Gilardino!

thanks for this, will have to watch replay today, thanks again!

Brazil is this weeks episode on 7th Feb

Thanks. I keep forgetting to watch

 

England this Sunday (21st), though bet no one will be watching cause you all should be at the Nix Game!

Previewed Argentina today. Replays tomorrow 12:10pm on TVNZ7

Gutted that I forgot.

It was pretty good TBH. Though Woods' strikes on goal for his interview won't instill fear in to many keepers.

I saw the one with North Korea and South in it, that was good.

Keep missing it though..

Netherlands team on now

France on todays ep

I hope they don't get out of their group. Cheats.

will be interesting. I had forgotten that they didn't make it past the group stage in the 2002 world cup.

I didn't realise that Anelka is making his debut at this one, at the age of 31! Seems he's had attitude issues in the past.

I watched Two episodes of Destination South Africa on ESPN last night, two teams from one pool in each episodes, started with A, must be first episodes.

Was good, similar thing to the Contenders, guess we'll see a few programs like this on build-up, which is good.

Finally we are on todays episode with Ivory Coast. On NOW!!

Repeated tomorrow TVNZ7 at 12:10pm!

Thanks! I missed it tonight but I will watch tomorrow!!

Replay still at Monday 12:10?

it's on again tonight at 11:35pm. And at 12:10pm tomorrow.

channel 97 for those with sky. Freeview channel 7

Thanks for the heads up. I was a little dispppimted in the show. Seems they did it on the cheap? Or why was there only photos and no videos from the final qualifier in Wellington? Was it a licensing issue? Manama highlights were shown.

Was good all the same to watch it :) thanks Oceanic

Bump.  It's on now.
