Why are Queenslanders second class citizens?

Question

We don't get the knockout semi-final between St Kilda & Melbourne until 10.35 pm on channel 10, and 11.30pm on Fox Footy. Wtf is going on here? Can't email ch 10, they don't have an email address on their website any more, must be getting too many complaints.

Answer 1

Its because the cane toad throwing comp is being beamed live accross the state at 7.30.......Queenslanders love that stuff

Answer 2

Poor b*****d!

Answer 3

I cannot say what is going on but in Sydney they will also be treated like you and only be able to see the game at 10.35pm.  Elsewhere in NSW you can see the game live starting at 7.30pm.  Perhaps channel 10 does not like the 'other' capital cities, except Melbourne.  They may also think that because a team from their state is not playing, the viewers would be less interested in watching it.  They may also not want to compete with the NRL Finals on 9 at time, although they will be competing on Saturday night.  It really does not make sense.

Fox Footy may have an agreement with channel 10 that they cannot show the game until it is finished, therefore Fox Footy cannot show it before a predetermined time, perhaps 11.30pm.
