With the exception of a Barbarians match or two, I can't remember the last time an Autumn International was on FTA. It's not ideal, but not unusual.

I guess they reckon the amount of people who would stay up to watch the livestream wouldn't make it that worthwhile an investment. If you're a free to air viewer and you can stand not watching it live I'm sure you can probably find a recording somewhere on the internet by the next morning, usually there's a YouTube version that is up for a while before they get around to taking it down.Makes you think that Rugby Australia would be better off getting the rights and streaming it on their website. At least people would see it here.

Think beIN already have the digital rights as well - they just charge us to see them.Makes you think that Rugby Australia would be better off getting the rights and streaming it on their website. At least people would see it here.

Taqele wasn't challenged at all in his position defensively, the Wallabies backline attacking structure was poor and never really placed any real pressure on them in that regard. TN will have the same problem he always has, too slow laterally and needs to do a 3 point turn just to turn around to chase a kick.
Theres no disputing that he is a wrecking ball when running straight, but test rugby requires more then that, against Tier 1 test nations he will be targeted and found out.
Fuck FTA, except for ABC and SBS. Sooner they all go under the better.
TOCC you are right about the Wallabies' attacking structure and maybe about TN overall, but by way of contrast, the Baa Baas' attacking structure was pretty well organised and a lot of it revolved around TN in the 13 spot. While TN didn't get challenged in defense, the Wallabies certainly did, and Kerevi's efforts in defense were abysmal again. So by both measures, defense and attack, TN had it over Kerevi all game.
That’s a bit harsh. They do have an audience, there are people who cannot afford cable, but who are not attracted to either the ABC or SBS. A lot of them, mostly not all that well off.
If FTA TV is in anyways salvageable, it needs to begin by removing Reality TV and Game Shows from counting towards Australian Produced content.
Otherwise let it die its slow and painful death. I'll be (or rather not be) watching popcorn in hand.

Harsh, my arse. FTA has done SFA for the good of this country in terms of political interference, ignoring the wishes of the greater public, and in lowering the intelligence of the populace.
