The league channel will be 502\. I hop today is not an indication on how they are going to fill the time. Think the Broncos v Warrington game is being replayed 3 times.
I would rather see NSW/Qld state cups, NYC or replays of old games than the weekends nrl games, and various panel shows replayed 6 times a week

That is exactly what it will be unfortunately, wall-to-wall repays ad nauseum. Look on the bright side, you can never get enough Bwaaaaiff, Cozza Parker, Gordie and Matty Johns. A flog-fest indeed.

Of course it will be

How many live hours per week will we be showing on the FOX LEAGUE Channel – live matches + shows?
32.5 hours per week on a full week.
>
How much coverage each week?
168
>
How many shows on FOX LEAGUE?
9 mag shows + 4 pre/post shows
>
How many are new shows?
6 new shows in 2017\. The Late Show with Matty Johns, League Life, Queenslanders Only, League 13-to-1 (did it in Finals only last year), The Professor’s Second Year Syndrome, League Legen

32 hours of live programming.

still leaves 130 odd hours for repeats

13 shows at an hour a pop…8 games @ 2 hours each....lots of room to do it all again

This will highlight what you see every week from every team in every game …when you are Live at the game...

GET EM ON-SIDE YOU CHEAT...

Well done Fox..

and there will be video evidence that they have been doing it all day.

If true it will be good, will hopefully embarrass the refs into not being so incompetent. They should use it to highlight forward passes too…..especially the ones that go 4 metres forward and are let slide by the refs.

Just as long as the fox commentary doesnt go the way of CH9 and solely concentrate on the refs and stop talking about the actual game.

And that Corey Parker needs to buy a personality, What a bore.
 
So who has which games this year?

I see Thurs night footy for the whole year = FOX?
Two games on Fri nite, 6pm (insane) and 8pm Both 9?
Three on Saturday = FOX super saturday?
and two on sunday 1 each?

You will learn something….

Yeah,

Of how stupid, annoying and time-consuming Queenslanders are.

No , probably learn why Qld is so vastly superior as the greatest province /state in world rugby league for the past 11 years

No egos / no BS/ no politics , just go out there and play great football with the best side available

They do understand ,Stryker

Like most NSWmen they are too egotistical to admit it
 
Ennis admittedly will be a good addition. He's well spoken and reads the game well.

I can't stand the Johns show, will give that a miss. I tune into 360 where I can. Will be good to have replays on hand during the week too.

The Queensland Origin side is fantastic probably the best rep side every assembled given their longevity…

It's the Smug arse supporters we can't stand ....

360 is passable at times and Sterlo is quite good.
Thing is, most of the good segments end up on the Fox Sports page (or the DT site) the next day anyway, so there's no real incentive to sit through the dross to get to the good.
Half the purpose of these shows is to create debate and social media activity, so they'll promote their own content repeatedly throughout the week.

I imagine the $5 extra is more to do with the addition of the beIN stable - which has a truckload of live content.

Would be funny timing see the BEIN content has been available for about 9 months, and the NRL is just starting now and they suddenly add the price hike at the same time as the new channel comes.

In any case it's still totally unnecessary. All league and league related programs were always on the same channel. All we are getting is a heap of additional replays and an extra show or two which they could have put on FS1 in any case.
 
Can't wait for rolling coverage of the same crap they fill the off-season with PLUS more opportunities to hear what Michael Ennis, Mark Gasnier and Braith f-ing Anasta think of things. I see they've also hired Corey Parker this season - apparently looking to put together a first 13 of utter dbags. Gallen an absolute shoe-in on retirement.

Probably only happens after they have lived in NSW for too long

You do realise you arent obliged to tune in arent you? Enjoy Freddy, Joey and Fatty.
 
Just noticed the posts saying they're expecting another $5 a month?

Is that being tacked onto the Sports package, or you have to pay an additional $5 a month to get the dedicated channel?

Sports pack went up $4 from 1 Feb…there reasoning was for the wanky EPL TV's $1 per channel...which was no additional charge when the first came on board..

Platinum went up $2 per Month
