[skeepe]

It appears that 7 have passed on another opportunity to show some great rugby.

Times for the match on Fox Sports:

1:30am Sunday morning, March 6 LIVE
6.30pm Sunday March 6 REPLAY

That's no bloody good if you don't have pay tv... absolutely ridiculous.

It will be the same in NZ Skeepe if you dont have Sky you are not going to see it. Thought I thought the South side didnt look that hot North has to be fav.

At 1:30am? It's doubtful. Most pubs will have either their crappy jukebox or even crappier bands going by then, with too many people to see the TV let alone watch a match properly. The replay may be another option, when I'll have already heard the score.

north will devour the south

Well after saying that the game will be on pay tv in NZ. I heard last night after the news that the game is free to air live 3:30am and then replayed later in the day. On TV1. I'll be up watching it.

[Dogs Of War]

Anyone up listening/watching this match?

 

[rugged]

Yeah, I'm up.

The crowd looks to be hugely disapppointing. I'd imagine a sellout at a similar match if it were to be held in Australia!

The game itself is rather artificial. Everyone is obviously under instruction not to cause penalties. No penalty kicks have been taken. And every try has been under the post.

don't u love when u are soooo wrong

How's that humble pie tasting? The North got their arses handed to them.

 

[THE KEGG]

The crowd was probably very poor due to the North Hemisphere predominately chosing bench players from their 6 nations teams.
Stating international and club commitments as the reason :roll:

Considering this game was for victims of the Tsumani, youd think they would be able to showcase the event with the majority of their top players being available.
Cricket organised a game quick time and a lot of the top players were there.

It doesn't matter who played and who was available . The idea was great and there were 42,000 fans there and anything that could help the victims of the Tsunami .

BINGO!

It does not matter who played, it is how rugby helped the tsumami victims!

But it should of been organised much, much better.
The ARU proposed two charity matches one in July to be played in Australia and another in November in London with the best players available as aposed to the 3rd choice Irish lock and a bunch of Samoans who no ones heard about but the IRB didnt agree to it.

 

[Polynesian Warrior]

Mate ! Brian Lima is a legend in NZ and the South Pacific . Graham Lowe rates him as the best tackler ever in the world in both codes .
Semo Setiti is the Manu Samoa captain and is well known in the UK and the rugby world .
If youre a true rugby union fan then you will know about this two Samoan .

 

[ThrashViking]

Semo Setiti was a club player in Wellington for most of his career.
The bench was full of unknowns and the northern team was just complete sh*t

 

[Polynesian Warrior]

Semo Setiti was a club player in Wellington for most of his career. :lol:

You really do know your rugby .

 

[ThrashViking]

He was still playing for Marist St Pats in 2003.
How many games has he played for Wellington? When did he go to Newcastle?
Christ, the man was playing for Marist St Pats for years.

I know more than you by the looks of it :lol:
