Question

Is Channel 7s coverage of the Olympics the worst coveage of a sporting event you've ever seen?

Answer 1

Channel 7 is always fail, They did a horrible job with it this year. what annoys me that with all the Olympic coverage they still find time for "Today Tonight" possibly the worst show on television, take a break for the news but not for that horrendous show.

Answer 2

its terrible, where are the field events? ...who knows. But we get the diving qualifying round (every dive) and later we get the final (every dive) ...yawn.

Then there is the constant changing every which way, never get to see a whole proper match. And then they will cut off the last five minutes, even though they obviously have the time with the amount of 5 minute slow motion montages they repeat over and over.

Dont get me started on the commentary...AND THE ADS ARRGGHHH every 2 minutes there are ads that go for 3 minutes!

Answer 3

I agree with Steven V

Answer 4

Almost the worst, but who knows if they also got London 2012 Olympics...?!

Answer 5

Yes by far, it only plays Aussies Playing and it has a ridiculous amount of ads.  

Answer 6

no i hated the coverage of the commonwealth game by channel 9. right now 7 is broadcast an event that Australia for the first time isn't in is the volleyball usa v cuba and i thought sbs would have shown that

Answer 7

Definetly the worst!! They only show Aussies playing. What about the Canadians and the Chinese and the Koreans!! SBS is much better

Answer 8

Yes Too many adds and too many good sports when you're at work or school.

Answer 9

no, the worst was channel 7s coverage of the rugby world cup in 2003

but this olympics is right up there

Answer 10

Most of the time they show aussies competing for obvious reasons.. but the thing i don't get is when they know before hand if the aussies dont fare well in that particular sport, they then decide not to show it at all or only parts of it. Just goes to show that you need to have a medal around your neck before channel 7 shows the whole nation just how awesome you were!;)

Answer 11

no its not. the worst coverage is when they dont show anything at all.

eg the us open and french open in tennis

Answer 12

Yes, absolutely the worst. We only get to see Aussies, instead of seeing the world's best at each and every sport. Very, very disappointing.
