Triple M Sydney's monday night footy call
G'day bloggers,I'm just curious, and it's probably something to do with broadcasting rights or something, but why on the Sydney Triple M stream almost every monday night when an NRL game is on, a looped announcement on the stream says that they can't broadcast the AFL?? Apparently to listen to the NRL game tonight, I have to go to the AFL site and "stream it there" according to this announcement, if I do indeed wanna hear the AFL. What AFL game on monday night? I'm not aware of any... "Because of legal reasons we can't actually stream the football, the AFL" it says. Eh?? I don't wanna stream the AFL on a monday night, I wanna stream the NRL!!
Um...folks who are running the stream, a little message to you...update the announcement on the stream eh? Triple M Brisbane stream isn't running it either even though the Broncos are playing tonight.
Hmm..gotta be a rights issue. Now to find two AAA batteries that work so I can listen to it via FM...Fox box is being used so I can't watch it, and 2GB don't carry monday night footy. Up the creek without a paddle? You bet...pity though coz their calls are hysterical! NRL.com score updates...yeah, cool, still can't stream the game though.
Bloody hell..red tape EVERYWHERE...

MMM Monday Night Football can be streamed from nrl.com
Direct link to the stream is mms://wm9.streaming.telstra.com/ucs-wh_nrl0live4 if you want to save the messing around though.
Aaah excellent, thanks for that mate! :) I knew ABC's coverage of NRL games could be streamed from there but didn't know Triple M's could.
