Weightlifting World Championships - Ausbb

PTC · 13-11-2009, 03:00 PM

Here is a heads up for you guys that are beginning to show an interest in strength.

Foxtel is bringing on 12 new channels from Sunday. One of those new channels is Eurosport Channel 511.

On Friday the 20th of November, it will begin telecasting the 2009 World Weightlifting Championships live. It begins with the Mens 56kg class at 6.45pm till 9.00pm.

It then has replays during the day, with a live telecast every evening. As far as I know, this is a first in Australia.

Something else it seems to show daily is the Worlds Strongest Man Champions League. It actually shows the first episode of WSM on Sunday the 15th at 7.00am.

Thought you guys may be interested.

That'd be great to watch - all I need now is money...

i'll tune in for that for sure. I love watching the strongman comps.

Damn I will be in bali, I guess the good thing about foxtel is there will be replays, and lots of them!

I guess I could put my IQ to good use and set it to record! Just have to clear some old junk out first

Excellent, I'll be watching.

I would offer to tape it for you but I don't have foxtel either! Maybe just as well otherwise I'd spend too much time watching TV...

That's very sweet of you Katie; it's the intention that counts here. Thank you just the same partner.
