Jesus, I've written more eloquent text messages.

Jesus, I've written more eloquent text messages.

At least it wasn't negative, that requires a little more effort.

Stories like this are why we have the WC.

Matty Johns and Mark Geyer saying how impressed they are with the minnows and crowds at the World Cup on FSN

 

[Brutus]

How has the build up to the NZ game in France going?

Plenty of positive coverage??

At least negativity implies some kind of investment/interest in the tournament.

From Le Monde, so pretty serious. The title is What is Rugby League - I have only read the first paragraph but words to the effect that it is popular in Eng and ANZ but mostly ignored in France.

 

[DIOGENES]

It then compares RL to RU in tackles, scrums, line outs and points,

The NZ France game is on currently on 7mate. Started at 5pm. Was it always scheduled to replayed? I was under the impression all games live plus the Aus games replayed.

 

[Heritage XIII]

just noticed too. No I don't think so (being scheduled as a replay)

 

[Joely01]

This is good, only disappointment would be it was never advertised...

So are 7mate only showing replays of any matches involving the "big 3"?

I started watching the replay of the Fiji game but didnt expect a replay of the England/Ireland match.

Anyway its good theyre replaying these matches.
