I’m a little surprised Seven are even bothering with non-Australian pool games. While the Matildas have got very good ratings, it was always hard to see that projecting out to non-Australian games being successful.
Offsiders raised their ‘disappointment’ that you need a subscription service to view the whole event - realistically the only way you were going to see the whole event on FTA was if SBS had the rights, no commercial network is going to run the whole tournament on FTA (I’m not even convinced a non-SBS FTA broadcaster would show all the games of the men’s WC either FWIW)
