So if ir doesn’t have “replay” on screen, it may not actually be live, just not seen on 9 yet…

Delayed. Better watching and curating your own coverage on Stan or 9Now.

Conversely it was a disappointing end to Australia’s rugby sevens campaign, with both men’s and women’s team missing out on the podium after losing their bronze medal matches. The women’s team was warm favourites especially after it won the SVNS world series two months ago.

Thought President Harrison Ford and Air Force One were about to land at the equestrian 
The extended opening theme music to that movie, which I’m sure is actually a classical orchestral piece, was over the PA as one of the event’s tracks. Instantly recognisable, though Seven’s old master tape used to remove it (including the opening credits) and skip to the parachute into the Russian compound scene.
