Another great display from the Aussies in both ToC and Giro yesterday and no coverage whatsoever in the country's ONLY national newspaper this morning. Absolutely disgusting.

On the other hand, the Mercury in Hobart seems to have discovered that the Giro exists - Goss had major coverage on both the front and back page the other day.

Given how the Tasmanians are going over there, it's probably about time they discovered it too :)

err, Sky anyone ;)

Well aware of the connection! But it wasn't them winning, was it? A race will often only exist on the stages Sky does well on.

Anyway this is the exact reason why CyclingNews was started, remember it was originally Australian owned

And we've still got an Australian office!

Not sure what your on about as coverage has been good here in South Australia.

The ABC radio provide an update in the news every morning and throughout the day. Just heard an interview with Porte on ABC at lunch time.

The other day in the Advertiser second back page, there was huge photo of Cadel covered in mud from Sat nights stage.


I think its been pretty good really compared to the past.

Loving the GIRO, although the delay due to fricking tennis on Eurosport is annoying.

Go Aussie

My point was that there was nothing in the country's only NATIONAL newpaper 'The Australian'. QLD's newspaper gives no coverage so I then look to the national press. I don't get SA papers.
I'm with you on the tennis though.
