Why is it that channel 7 (and the other channels) won't show anyone else but Australia playing sport? For example, they will show the Wallabies vs Springboks but not the All Blacks vs Springboks, or the Boomers vs Dream Team and not Dream Team vs Russia...!!! Yet in New Zealand, all of the Wallabies vs Springboks or Wallabies vs Wales etc games go to air regardless of their time. Regardless of where you are from, what about the lovers of rugby? Very disapointing channel 7!

I Feel the need to complain about the lack of AFL coverage in Western Australia.
People in Perth dont only want to see the EAGLES & DOCKER GAMES.
The only other games you seem to show in western australia are the bottom of the ladder teams.
LAST WEEK YOU SHOWED THE ESSENDON Vs HAWTHORN BOTH TEAMS HAD ONLY WON ONE GAME EACH,
When at the same time SYDNEY & Brisbane were playing with Sydney on the top of the ladder & Brisbane with the chance to move into top spot, How ridiculous. Show us all the games, I don't even care if its delayed but this is an AUSTRALIAN SPORT THAT ALL AUSTRALIANS SHOULD BED ABLE TO SEE & NOT SHOWING ALL THE GAMES IS
TOTALLY UN-AUSTRALIAN.

I am writing this to complain about Channel 7's blatant disregard to program scheduling! We have a TiVo and a Media Center PC which we use to watch TV. As we have a busy household, we choose to record our favourite shows every week allowing us to pause and rewind even in a live TV show. Having a Media Center or TiVo is great as it draws all it's scheduling from an EPG (Electronic Program guide) similar to that on modern TV's these days.

For months now, Channel 7 has been blatantly overrunning some of their shows which cause a flow on effect throughout the evening of entertainment. I am not simply saying 2 or 3 minutes, I'm talking up to 15 minutes. For our household we have a number of TV shows that we love to watch on a regular basis, and unfortunately quite a few are on at similar times, we invested in a TiVo and a Media Center, which allows us to record 2 shows at once, helping us when we are busy and can't catch them live.

An example is that we have set our devices to record every episode of How I Met Your Mother when it comes on TV based on the timings indicated on our EPG. This week when I was away in Melbourne, and because I was out of town I didn't have the luxury of watching live like I do most weeks, so I relied on my Media Centre to record it. However, Channel 7 had an overrun of 15 minutes of Cougartown prior to How I Met Your Mother starting, and this is not an isolated occurrence.

What makes things even worse than watching 15 minutes of Cougartown, is that despite setting our Media Center to record 10 minutes after the scheduled finish time, it caused us to miss the final 5 minutes of our favourite show. This overrun causes problems every week, making us either miss the start of another channels viewing, or the end of the program we are wanting to watch on Channel 7.

It seems clear to me that this is a conscious effort on Channel 7's behalf, to attempt to get the viewer interested in another program, as it only occurs in primetime slots, and the problem seems to be resurrected by late in the evening. Is there anything that can be done, and who are the governing bodies I can complain to? It is more than just frustrating now, and although I don't download TV shows, Channel 7 is making the option very tangible.

Very frustrated!

The Seven Network doesn't deserve to have any contract with the AFL while it continues to treat match coverage as a token in NSW.

Showing the NAB games at 1AM in the morning is ridiculous. They're normally aired after some obscure ancient chick flick that I can't believe would pull the audience justified to bump any AFL match into the AM.

If you're going to show a match at 1AM you could at least have the decency to condense the programme down to a couple of hours rather than showing the incredibly long version that ends at 4AM.

Can you really believe forcing loyal viewers to become bleary eyed victims of insomnia is helping your brand. I doubt it because I can tell you right now that I absolutely HATE the Seven Network. You treat AFL fans like crap in this state.

On a usual Saturday morning my children wake up at 6am and start watching My friends Tigger & Pooh, Handy Manny then Saturday Disney and to my disgust this morning after handy manny had finished we were advised that Saturday Disney's timeslot has been change to 9am due to Sunrise being on. Not sure if you are aware but children do not watch Sunrise, not even i an adult watches sunrise. Saturday morning was the only morning we could wake up and not have to watch news, and watch something fun like saturday disney. For Saturday disney to start at 9am, this does not suit many families, there are dance classes, swimming lessons, little athletics and many more classes parents take there children to on a saturday morning as work comittments do not allow for us to do these during the week. So now unfortunatly my children will have to miss out on their favorite show...Thanks channel 7 you have done it again...I guess we will just have to switch over to the abc or channel 10 as they tend to market for children...not happy!!!
