Is that all produced in house or using Craig’s calls/crew for any?
Triple M does their own coverage

I believe that the Warriors-Broncos match will be heard in Sydney. The MMM site says that AFL will be on digital radio?
I heard a promo on Wednesday for the Swans game against Collingwood on 104.9, so I daresay that they will cross to that to right on full time of Warriors v Broncos, as that’s when the AFL is about to start.
But Sydney v Collingwood is on tonight (Friday) while Warriors v Broncos is on Saturday. Unless Triple M Sydney is broadcasting Gold Coast v Geelong as well? That game starts at 7.25pm after Warriors-Broncos clash.
Oh sorry, I should have said after Manly v Gold Coast.
The world cup of cricket will start soon, I wonder if the only way to listen to the nrl on the abc will be on analog and online. I suspect on dab it will be all cricket. In the old days they use to have abc extra for the ashes etc…
Given the timezone factor, there probably won’t be any overlaps (unless it’s an all day game).
The NRL night games will overlap with World Cup day games due to 9 hour time difference, 10.30am start for the cricket in UK equates to 7.30pm AEST. It will affect NRL coverage on both ABC and Macquarie Sports Radio.
The ABC could use the Kids channel as overflow. It was the Extra channel before they allocated it to kids.
They won’t bother - the tendency is to guide people towards overflow streams on the ABC Listen app / ABC Radio website now

I’m a bit surprised that Triple M Albury / Wodonga isn’t listed there… I can understand Shepparton, Bendigo, Mildura and Hobart not taking it though.

If it’s not going to the VIC and SA regionals, no need for it to be going to the metros too

I can understand Melbourne taking it, where there an NRL presence in the Storm.
But yes, not Adelaide either…
It’s already live on 9 & 9HD there, I don’t think there is enough interest in Adelaide to warrant radio coverage too.

It’s also better than their awful metro nights offering.

With the recent sale of 2BS Bathurst to Caralis, the station now carries NRL Nation from Crocmedia, starting from tonight’s Game 1 of State of Origin. It previously carried the Continuous Call Team.
That means people in Bathurst who want to continue listen to the Continuous Call Team would have to tune to 2LT from Lithgow.

Unless another station in the area is taking either Continuous Call Team or NRL Nation coverage of State of Origin?
Can’t imagine 2AY doing it given their 3AW ties.
