Nine/Stan Rugby Union Coverage

It looked like a Nine production, and an upgrade from the regular season.

Nice to see

Given the difference between watermark and vision I assume it’s still 720 res?

World Cup overnight

[foxyrover]

Is that Nat Yoannidis hosting?

[OnAir]

What gave it away?

Hospital Cup GF seen in QLD and NT

[foxyrover]

Didn’t see that

@TV.Cynic

Is it just your cap or is it really 480p?

[MossPickle]

Based on 9Now I’m guessing 720p

[foxyrover]

Yuck, surely they can run a TV broadcast at a higher production quality?

[MossPickle]

Who knows. On another hand, I’m loving this package. I wish Nine used this for its league as well because it looks so clean

In Brisbane Nine had NRL on 90, Tennis on 9GemHD and RU on 9Go!HD and all had SD versions as well so a bit starved for bits.

[foxyrover]

Ah ok, makes sense

[MossPickle]

When is Nine retiring the SD variants? Surely it’d save bits come sporting times

Australia V Argentina in Townsville. NRLW finished in time for the match to start on the main channel in Sydney and Brisbane as well as the other markets. Pre-match was on 9Gem in NRL states.
