Televising of Coll v Carl

Can anyone in Brisbane tell me when I can expect to see the Coll v Carl match on tv??? I am going to be in Brissie on Friday and Saturday nights and had intended to go to a pub (probably Adrenalin) to watch the game live on tv, but people have told me that it probably won't be shown until later. Please let me know whether this is true (and where I should watch it)!!!

Poor, Poor Kristen!

Welcome to the Thugby League loving state that is QLD!

We can expect to see the game at 11:10.
The earlier time-slot goes to...you guessed it! Thugby League! GGRRR!

Thanks Channel 9! Bastards.
I am seriously considering staying away from the internet/radio on Friday Night and waiting for the replay on Fox Footy on Saturday, because Collingwood/Carlton is such a big game, and I feel that it would be wasted on radio.

Yea kristin this stuffs us up as well. last year we organised groups to go down to the Yeronga Footy club to watch games live. Because optus would show live to states who weren't taking the game live on free to air. Why Foxtel are not doing tis has got me Faarrkeed.

Thanks Nick. How do you put up with that? It would drive me crazy!!!

Can you suggest what pubs would be showing it (in the city area)? Is Adrenalin my 'best bet' (because I understand that it's a Sports Bar)?

Kristin the pine apple hotel in Wooloongabba is the AFL pub. Or you might try the Brisbane Lions social club

Brisbane Lions Social Club??? I think NOT!!!!!! (I'm actually going up to Brisbane to see Essendon v. Brisbane with my Essendon-mad friend - and I will be barracking for Essendon!!!) Surely the pubs are like here though, and they all have tv's showing whatever's on, so I should get to see the delayed telecast at least???

Rugby league is the main up here kristin. But i am sure that if you give the Hotel manager a sexy look he will put in on the screens(much to the woe of many folks here).Hope you got my IM.
