An email was received today repeating the times of a media availability with a senior NT, turns it out is to occur but an hour after the same Federation has its U-20's kick off in a World Cup game. Media are expected to watch games to be able to write about them, whether they be present or on TV, streaming, etc. How are they able to do both, record one and not be able to put it out as it happens, miss some of one? Certainly each know of the other and the games should be of a higher importance, the schedule out for some time, not if they are in any particular game but if there is to be a game played involving their group do not set a press conference at the same time.
