Rogers has never shown the World Cup. For the first time, TSN is sending one of their own to the draw (aside from WWC15 draw in Ottawa). It will also be their longest draw show at 4 hours - above my guess of 2.5-3 hours. Actual draw time is quite short at 1 hour - usually the host country entertainment portion & European styled pleasantries alone take about 30 minutes. Should be also shown on RDS & FOX.

Free kick Posted March 11, 2022 Share Posted March 11, 2022 From that article, this means that for people in the eastern time zone the actual draw will be carried out between noon and 1 PM. At lunch time. All things considered, this is not bad, if you are in the North american eastern time zone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way, I'm sure they'll have a live reaction stream of the draw. They can't show the draw, but they can sure react to it and push out content.

Free kick Posted March 11, 2022 Share Posted March 11, 2022 The rights holder for the world cup is TSN. The rights holder is who is entitled to broadcast the WC draw and this always has been the case. So I am confused by the suggestions above that others medias should be upset.

Jedi Ram Posted March 12, 2022 Author Share Posted March 12, 2022 Been checking everyday at FIFA.com and other new sources for the details of the draw format. So far nada. The 2022 FIFA World Cup gets one step closer on Friday, April 1 when the official World Cup draw takes place in the host nation of Qatar. TSN has full coverage of the draw, beginning at 11 AM ET/8 AM PT with a one-hour pre-show, followed by the draw at noon ET /9 AM PT. After the draw has concluded, coverage continues with a two-hour post-show at 1 PM ET/11 AM PT. A review show follows at 7 PM ET/4 PM ET. TSN's Matt Scianitti will be live in Doha and will be gathering reaction from around the world following the draw. Free kick 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hence, if he cant make it to the draw, he wont be alone. By the way, there is no reason why the NT managers need to be there anyways. as long as someone from the CSA is there, that should suffice Edited March 12, 2022 by Free kick johnyb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Approve My Account Pls Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Would be quite cool if the team stayed together for the draw (maybe fly to Florida from Panama and spend the night) in order to have a live broadcast of their draw reaction or something. I understand that's probably impossible given club requirements though tg02 and johnyb 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then post-draw, it will be interesting to hear which our group foe managers know anything about Canada. I can tell you with a high degree of confidence what every manager will say about every team in their group, including Canada. They will say that their opponent is a good team, will represent a tough challenge, that they have good players, that they are well managed etc. the usual safe stuff that will serve the purpose of not giving your opponent extra motivation. My guess is that European or South American managers wont know anything about Concacaf other than what they can see in standing for WCQ. Its likely that the Belgian, French and German managers will have heard of a few of our players but other managers (from other countries), its not likely. But as soon as they know that we are in their group, they will start getting their hands on all the film they can about our games from the past year and half. That way, when they line up on the pitch to play, they will (only then) really know about our players. therefore, i believe that the best time to asked them about what they think about are team is in the days before the WC starts. This is my guess from what i am able to decern from reading between the lines. Edited March 13, 2022 by Free kick Mattd97 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you thought booing commissioners at the draft was fun, drunk fans chanting at the FIFA execs and the Qataris who bought the tournament would be next level. narduch and Jedi Ram 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My logical conclusion would be to have both countries play with each other. Scotland has confirmed that they will play the loser of Wales-Austria match on March 29. Loser of Sweden-Czech was supposed to play Loser of Russia-Poland as originally planned. Sources : various news outlets online March 24 - Wales-Austria, Sweden-Czech, Scotland vs unknown friendly, Poland vs unknown friendly. March 29 - Scotland vs loser of Wales-Austria, Poland vs winner Sweden-Czech. Loser Sweden-Czech vs unknown friendly. Just as I predicted = Scotland and Poland will play friendly on March 24. Confirmed by various news sources. MAR 24 = Scotland vs Poland [Friendly], Wales vs Austria, Sweden vs Czech. MAR 29 = Scotland vs loser of Wales-Austria [Friendly], Poland vs winner Sweden-Czech TBD = Loser of Sweden-Czech vs ??? [Friendly] = various rumors have winner of Wales-Austria play them TBD = Ukraine vs Scotland - Even though the match is postponed to June, Ukraine manager admits that it may not happen when 16 national players are at Ukraine defending their land. As of now, with 16 days to go, no details of the WC Final Draw has been released. lamptern and Free kick 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedi Ram Posted March 22, 2022 Author Share Posted March 22, 2022 Procedures for the Final Draw for the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022™ released Three key points to note as the procedures were officially released; [1] - Three unknown teams will be placed in Pot 4 regardless of their rank. [2] - Teams from same confederation will be kept apart in each of the 8 groups except UEFA where 5 of 8 groups will have 2 UEFA teams. [3] - While the teams are being slotted to each group, stadiums, match schedule, it will still be unknown as to exact time it will be played. It would be released far later to maximize the television audience. johnyb, Kent and chalms04 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
