About the comments over the weekend? C10 were very critical of the treatment of the Pukehohoe telecast & cutting of the race

I doubt it. I saw a story on Sports Tonight but there was one on nine too.
And anyway, what are they going to sue everyone for, telling the truth?? Mind you, avesco dont like the truth a lot of time anyway. Seems they have blamed everyone except themselves. |

Well there was a column in the courier mail today with VE$A taking the responsibility for cutting the race short (absolving C7) "...we thought it was more important to telivise the podium ceremony...due to long safety car periods...we will have extra training for recovery crews..." (para-phrasing, memory and spelling not the best!).
Who on gods little green earth would prefer to see the podium ceromony over racing (or should I say cars going around)?!?!?!? |

Could it be that Channel 7 were upset that they had to cop some of the flack given the footage is produced by VESA. Channel 7 ring up the Black Wiggle, crack the sads. VESA is forced to carry the blame and is not happy about it.
VESA being the grumpy little boy that he is, doesnt like it when daddy (who pays all his bills for him) tells him off. So how VESA goes to school, and wants to bash up that bully in the playground, (that naughty Channel 10) for dobbing them in. One lesson learnt in life. Never burn bridges, because you may need to cross them again someday. |

Ch7 were taking legal action against Ch10 and the AFL while also negotiating with them to obtain the TV rights. The matter was eventually dropped but its a pretty clear indication that nothing gets in the way if money is to be made.

its great to be able to speculate and make up total BS, but what amuses me most is that people take the bS and run with it and analyse it it
The legal actions has nothing to do with the last round or any subsequant media report. It is related to channel 10's previons contract with V8SA (prev AVESCO) and how that finished up |

Good of TC to tell us that legal action was pending. Good of him to tell us why.

Yeah, thats what is odd about it and what lead to all the discussion and analysis Pecky, crazy I know.
VESA's comments amounted to telling the public something without actually telling them anything. |

Then why say anything at all, it seems that all he wanted to do was make 10 look bad.

because he was asked.
He didnt put out a press release, he was aksed by the media and he replied ther was some action pending. As this is a legal matter and these things often get settled out of court the there is no need to go into detail. that will come out in court if required |

No comment wasnt an option ? The comment alone doesnt really do a whole lot of good.
