P.S. Have just googled him and discovered he plays XIII-aside rugby. The 6 Nations is XV-aside, which will explain why he didn't play!

Thought I'd pull this back up to the top and tell you all I just spotted that the England game will be shown on BBCAmerica:

(see bottom of page - doesn't say if it will be live but I assume so).

Still i'll be downloading these weekend games for later viewing as I won't be able to watch them I don't think.

Same as that mate. The quality of the play this year from all the teams has been way above that of last year already. Few silly mistakes here and there but overall a good tournament.

Cable co. are coming to install the DVR today, finally persuaded H2B that if he wanted a lie in on Saturdays (its shown at 7:30am here) we would need some form of recording device.
We are planning a trip to the UK in September, I have mentioned that we could go to New Zealand instead, so far its a no go ... bahhhhh
Oh well ...common England !!!!

RU = watching at least 20 of the 40 minutes with the ball hidden under a pile of fat blokes whereby neither the audience, the referee or most of the players have a clue where the ball is or what is happening, very few tries, lots of boring kicking from one end of the pitch to the other with not a lot happening.

RL = lots of exciting broken play, passing along the line, skilful handling, lots of tries.

I guess your a R.U or a R.L type of guy...myself is a R.U through and through, but that's me coming from a Rugby Nation such as Wales..
