Not sure if there is much demand for these as I think most people have found one way or another to see them.  Still, just in case, I'll be uploading torrents here for your convenience.

Due to somewhat disappointing commitment to hockey here in Australia they aren't typically full games, but highlights packages.  Still good viewing, ads removed, compressed, good quality.

Torrents are attached and also uploaded to mininova.org.  If anyone else is capping, please feel free to upload your torrents to this thread. 

Any feedback welcomed and appreciated.

First up -
Mens Germany v China (Running time: 43 minutes)
Womens Australia v Korea (Running time: 23 minutes)
Mens - Australia v Canda (Running time: 37 minutes)
Mens - RSA v Ned (Running time: 62 minutes)

Coming soon  -
RSA v Australia
Ned v GB

Some of us greatly appreciate access to these games.  In the US, I haven't figured out a way to see games other than what NBC chooses to let us see.  Thanks to anyone making games available.

Will, I'm having trouble uploading torrent files of games I've captured to mininova.org - do you have any tips?

I'm creating the torrents using Transmission (I'm a Mac user) and they get rejected as improper files. I've also tried uploading them to piratebay.org but I get taken to a blank screen after attempting to upload the file and it doesn't exist as a torrent in my profile (so obviously wasn't successful).

Attached is the torrent for the Mens RSA v NED Game.  Running time 63 minutes.

I'll be seeding for as long as possible but there will be a short break later today as I relocate residences for the weekend.

Keely, it sounds like the torrent file isn't being created properly.  It is difficult to know why this might be, I've never used transmission before, being a uTorrent man but unfortunately the Mac version of uTorrent is still a little while away.  Are you using these trackers?

Given that we've only got one other competitor for the title, I'm not sure how much of a compliment that is! Lol

Thanks Will.  There are a few different versions of the australian coverage floating around on various torrent sites (demonoid, diwana and mininova).  Any chance of any games from you guys in other countries?  I'd love to see some of the other countries!
