gone are the days of BBC Engineers doing it :-(

It's the way things are now with such events. The state broadcaster SABC have
had minimal involvement with the coverage. All of the OB trucks providing the
core match coverage are from Western Europe, Telegenic's truck that is
providing some 3D coverage was flown in !!
