Even better news is every superleague game is being shown live this season Sinky..
Have you tried counting to 15 whilst watching the Yawnion Sinky? Most I've got to is 7,before falling asleep. 🙂
France v Ireland tonight in Marseilles starts the 2024 Six Nations. Probably ends it as well, whoever wins this will be Champions. England. without Farrell thank god, take on Italy tomorrow. Can't wait.
Hopefully this will piss off Alfie and the M62 crew, who can't count past 13.

With France and Ireland dominating I suppose we are playing for third. Good fun though. Bring back 2003
55 mins, excellent opening game, I'd written France off after the red card but game on.
Ireland doing well, but the French are disappointing. The red card has made a difference, and the player must have been stupid, already being on one yellow card. It’s a great stadium, but it’s not a “proper rugby crowd “ inside. The atmosphere is flat. The commentary is hopeless too.
It may sound flat on TV but the commentators keep saying how noisy it is and that's with france chasing the game. looks like the start of a grand slam, who needs ***ton?
That boneheaded Frenchman ruined it, getting himself sent off, 15 against 15 and it would have been a right cracker of a game. The Frogs made a game of it but there's not a team in world rugby could beat Ireland playing a man short for most of the game.
Wayne Barnes did a piece in the DT, his three ways to improve the game. Someone put his own suggestions in the Comments section,
1) Make the ball round.
2) Allow forward passes.
3) Ban the use of hands.
Made me smile.
Italy have obviously not read the script.
Hard to know what to make of that, there was more willingness to run the ball, although Italy's two first half tries came after we'd kicked the ball straight to them, we just never seem to learn, and some of the new lads looked quite useful. But that appalling feck up at the end made what should have been a comfortable win into what appeared to be a close run thing, although in realty it wasn't, it was all done and dusted on 80 minutes.
Is this a good Italian team, at times they looked it, or are England still a million miles away, The next couple of weeks should tell us.
