Saying field hockey is quite popular in Australia is a big stretch. Outside of the Olympics every 4 years the sport gets no coverage at all here.

I know what you mean. Compared to the other team sports in Australia like Australian Football, Cricket, Rugby (League+Union) and Football (Soccer), Field Hockey is rather far behind.

But it still enjoys a certain popularity, even if the TV coverage is indeed rather poor outside the Olympics, just like here in Europe.
