Nothing on TVNZ !!!!!!
Nothing on TVNZ !!!!!!
TYPICAL TVNZ , NOT EVEN A MENTION ABOUT THE GAME ,WHAT DO THE
PHOENIX HAVE TO DO TO GET SOME AIRTIME
Prime TV News reported it as 5-0...
Nothing on TV3 news tonight either. . .. Waiting for Sport
365 now on Sky. . .
Nothing on TV3 either - both networks ran the story of Beckham's
first game for LA Galaxy though.
what a load of cr@p. what is wrong
with these people? this is big news!
Tv 3 showed beckham falling on his arse for the galaxy, useless
Isn't it time for the introduction of a form of legal requirement
for news organisations (ie: our national TV provider) to report a
certain quota of non-rugby/netball/NRL stories. Without getting too
animated about this particular situation but isn't it more
important to NZ that we get a report on our country's only
professional soccer team over a report on David Beckham playing 15
minutes in another friendly in LA?
TVNZ finished by saying- what agreat weekend for NZ sport,
Warriors, Netball, Rugby
um and the phoenix?
Fark! its frustrating innit
um and the phoenix?
Fark! its frustrating innit
unbefarkinlievable
right on napier pheonix, tv 3 need to get clint 'booyaa' brown to
report on the soccer
Yeah I was was channel surfing and nothing on TV1 or TV3 and Prime
stuffed up in the accuracy dept! Bloody hopeless all of them!!! As
for the clip on Beckham's circus performance for the LA Galaxy,
what bollocks!
Dont get to sensitive guys at the end of the day its only
preseason,I cant seem to recall any thing on last nite about wgtns
preseason game against auckland played friday nite. Anyway if we
continue to play like that they will be clambering over us.

No it's not time - quotas would be worse than watching One Auckland
News in the first place.
they have it for NZ music, isn't sport just a simportnat in your
eyes Z?
Its an untelevised preseason game of course there isn't going to be
coverage, wait to the season proper begins before complaining.
The difference between the Auckland Wellington rahrah and the NIx
Bling, is that it is a preseason COMPETITION, ala the old NRL
preseason comp which was well covered, live TV etc. Just keep your
heads up, there is zip all you can do about it, it aint going to
change until the A League has bedded in a few years longer.
There was a single sentence giving the (correct) score at the
end of Sport 365 on SKY. Agree with the above; it'll be much
better come August 26...
Having said that Sky News has been frequently giving the Preseason
results and I think they have been showing some goals.
Bet you if the Phoenix had lost 3-0 it would have got a mention !
As for that stupid air hostess Swanson Roe - 5-0 to the
Phoenix ???? reported on Prime. Unfortunately most NZ media don't
have a clue about soccer.

A agree this would have been the case. . . And yet they
still find time to run a cynical story about LA Galaxy . .
.
Who gives a f**k about the Galaxy :/ Good to see they have their
priorities straight ... cough..
Poor coverage by all tv stations. What will be interesting is to
see how they cover the Christchurch game. I`m picking it will be
better.
I understand that there was no television coverage of the game and
all that, but not even a single sentence, just giving the result?
Shame on TV1 and TV3.
The sports editors at both TV1 and TV3 have their heads so far up
their f**king arses that their adams apples' are their noses.
They seem to believe that a victory over Australia in netball
is a major blow to their sporting psyche when in reality
- Aussies consider it a "dull minority sport that nobody
really gives a rat�s
chuff about"....

I know this has been touched on but it is almost as if there is
some sort of (subliminal) mindset from Media Rugby Heads
where they see Football as some serious threat to the domination of
Rugby.
Using that rational, Therefore,it makes sense to denegrate a
sport when things aren't 100% and ignore when they are going
well.
Happens too often to be a nonsense.
"Opinion creates Opinion" and the media are well aware of
this.
Nothing on Yellow Fever TV either!
Yeah... that is the backbencher's fault.
Priorities Lads. Your eager audience is awaiting every crumb.
There's a responsibility when you put your hand up for those media
jobs. Even Mr CutnPaste himself, Colin Chin ventured out today and
not a schoolboy in sight. I'm sure he'll dig up something though
about how Daniel was once a schoolboy 
Get
home and get editing!

Thanks for reminding me why I quit Goalnet.
OK, I hear what you guys are saying but...
The NPC warm-up game between Wlg and Akl at the same venue
(and with twice as many people there) also got no coverage on TVNZ
and TV3.
Tonight's sports news did have a lot on it; Bledisloe test, AB
World Cup squad announced, a wierd netball test, Open golf,
Warriors, Hamilton crashing etc... Pre-season friendlies
don't cut it with that lot.
BTW, the Beckham thaing probably made it because there were no
Royal Family stories tonight
OK, I hear what you guys are saying but...
According to one Hard News on the Cove forum
the attendance at this rugby game was 1200. Any comments News?

It's fair enough to say that it shouldn't of been shown because it
was just pre season - but it had a lot more significance than that.
It was the Phoenix's first win ever, their first game on home soil
and the A-League pre season is actually a competition.
They talked about it here on SBS, THe World Game when they were
going through all the games in the preseason cup....You can tell by
the look on Craig Fosters face that he was surprised that the
Phoenix won, Didn't really say much about the phoenix except that
they played well, mainly went on about Sydney
problems. Nestling2007-07-23 03:19:50
lol @ netball
sydney sunday paper had this to say about it briefly enjoyed
the barbed comment from branko
culina the sydney coach about commitment
culina the sydney coach about commitment
It's NOT fair enough that it wasn't shown. It was preseason, but it
is a preseason COMPETITION, not a f*cking warm up game, like the
rugby. TV used to show the NRL preseason competition not only on
the news, but as live coverage, until it was canned and would
continue to do so.
Australian media have always given the A League preseason
COMPETITION, proper coverage and still do - and there is no excuse
for the NZ TV media not to do the same.
I am not counting the press and the radio in this, the
coverage so far has been spot on.
So also be precise with your criticism, the media is more than
just one faction and the DO read this.
the netball...who gives a rats f*ckn arse
i wonder what tv would have done if they had lost or only a handful
of people turned out - those fisheads at tv (both channels) will be
wanting this team to fall over as it is not in auckland!!! it is
frustrating as someone from another successful sporting code which
also struggles for airtime in this country -
Bet you if the Phoenix had lost 3-0 it would have got a mention !
As for that stupid air hostess Swanson Roe - 5-0 to the
Phoenix ???? reported on Prime. Unfortunately most NZ media don't

HEY.......HEY................HEY...............NO!
Leave Kelly out of this.
