With the olympics coming up thought I’d check what time the opening ceremony is. 3:30am Saturday. Yeah nah. I’ll catch the highlights on the news.

I did this exact same check tonight and same opinion. The timezone isn't great for seeing any of the bigger events live. Not going to be like Tokyo.

Tokyo was practically our time zone plus we were in lockdown, I've never olympicked so hard. This year might be some highlights and a few heats.

There’s a good chance of them replaying the ceremony as they’ve done that in the past if memory serves me right.

You might even be able to replay it on the 9 website as well.
