Question

With the first australian participating in a steeplechase since 1968, why did Chanel 7 cut to adverts?

Answer 1

dude, i admit, i completely agree with your point, seven have done a c**p job with the olympic coverage (even on the web, ninemsn's updates have them covered) this year, hopefully 9 will do a much better job in 2012

HOWEVER, this question should be in the olympic section, not the cricket, ask it there and you might get more answers

Answer 2

Didn't realise cricketers did steeplechase on the ground?
