Sky Sport 1 at 7.30 - 9.35 has highlanders and crusaders
Sky Sport 2 at the same times has golf and cricket highlights
Sky Sport 3 at the same times has the Winter Olympics
Sky Sport 4 at the same times has the same Winter Olympics
Sky Sport 5 at the same time has nothing.
Sky Sport 6 at the same time has nothing.
Sky Sport 7 at the same time has nothing.

From 9.35pm until 11.40pm Sky Sport 1 has Live Super 14 Rugby between two ozzie teams.
Sky Sport 2 at the same time has live NRL All Stars.
Sky Sport 3 has delayed coverage of...golf.
Sky Sport 4 has a replay of the Winter Olympics Opening Ceremony.
The rest have nothing.

Does that help? You underestimate the publics thirst for delayed golf coverage.

The TAB now has  tonight's two games listed as 'live betting' when they didn't previously
Maybe they know something we don't

You have to concede, there probably is a bigger market for the all Aussie Super 14 game and the Golf Highlights.

Yeah both fine points. I'm baffled they had enough intelligence to create the Winter Olympics channels, but fail to use them properly.

Also makes me wonder why they're so tight arse... they should have 6 Sky Sport channels all year round. Its not that hard to do and if there's nothing on the others just show some replays.Michael2010-02-13 22:47:08

The delayed coverage is running late due to the rugby league.  :(

Fox Sports started the Perth vs Brisbane game here about 5 minutes late due to an AFL pre-season game in Adelaide.

AFL pre-season? Geez!

Here the delayed coverage got put back a further 30 minutes due to the presentation ceremony after the ARL all-stars game where we learnt that players would rather play sport than draw.]
