I have Foxtel ...BUT.....What an absolute disgrace CH 9..... Who was interviewing the jockeys then on the horse as they came back to the mounting yard........ you could see someone doing it...then you would flick around all the channels to listen in and there was nothing on..WTF??????

From what I was told, SA was the only state that didnt show the gallops on 9. Apparently it has something to do with Adelaide ch.9 being owned by WIN tv so we missed out. How can you punters survive without FOXTEL ?

I think the relationship between WIN TV and the Nine Network is a little bit rocky. WIN now own the Adelaide station but after broadcasting Channel nine programs to the regional area (particularly the Riverland etc) have now recently changed over to broadcasting the channel seven feed.
Dogwatcher are you able to elaborate further or not? or am I talking shite here?
Hope they get their act together by the time the Melbourne Cup comes around

its poor form by ch 9
i think it has to do also with the fact that it apparently doesnt rate in adelaide, but it rates in the other states...........
poor excuse

You cant survive without Foxtel... It is so important to tape T.R.T. and study all runners runs on the day....
