StreetCowboy Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 (edited) End to end stuff in the Hull KR v Warrington game but I'm beside myself - I can hardly hold my Irn Bru, as eight minutes into the game Scotland go a try up against the French in the other code and as I type that, Warrington score! All I need now is moving pictures! I hoped the Irn Bru would do the trick. Their current advertising campaign features Scottish rugby league players, by the way, boys. I've got commentary from Murrayfield (sorry for the digression) and it really does not come across as well on the wireless as the league. Although 7 - 0 comes across well enough for me on the wireless, regardless of the code! SC Edit: 10-0 to Scotland, and then they give away a penalty in the centre of the pitch and they kick for position, then charge over for a try... and the Marseillaise is echoing round Murrayfield as the lead recedes to 10-7 And while Rory Lamont is stretchered off with a leg injury, back on topic Warrington stretch their lead to 16-0 at the Halliwell Jones, though I'm listening to Radio Humberside and the coversion makes it 18-0 with four minutes to half time Edited February 26, 2012 by StreetCowboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StreetCowboy Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 (edited) And the commentators are quite beside themselves at Murrayfield as Scotland go over for a second try - when was the last time we scored two tries in the same game, eh? 17 - 13... and 18-10 at Warrington, as Hull KR bring another back... and now the commentators are beside themselves with the injustice of the refereeing, but the referee and Medard ignore them, and the latter scores under the posts - 17 - 20 with 20 minutes to go. "(oh come on referee!) (The man's offside), Cusiter goes - there's another one round the neck... here goes Lamont ('they're offside again!) ... Wayne Barnes ignores Cusiters claims that their offside (that's a penalty) (lazy runners and everything) ... (look they're all offside, every single defender)' and the French turn it over but 'what a waste of a French attack...' And a drop goal sees France leading 23 - 17 as we come close to Full Time... ... And full time in Warrington - 42-10 against Hull KR ... France get a penalty at the scrum with two minutes to go, pulls it wide to the left. and that's the way it finishes Scotland 17 - 23 France SC Edited February 26, 2012 by StreetCowboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I've got a veritable feast of rugby today - two super rugby games - I've got QR v Rebels on just now, followed by a couple of NRL games (not live) (unfortunately I have a clashing appointment) and then two six nations games - I'll be watching the Scotalnd game from behind the sofa... and on Eurosport there's at least one French game - and then on the movie channel - Invictus!

StreetCowboy Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 Working today...or rather being paid to watch rugby. Assuming its quiet of course... I'm listening to Castleford in London on the sofa with the Wales Italy game on TV; then it'll be over behind the sofa and hiding under the quilt for the Scotland Ireland game... Quite an exciting game at the Broncos 16-12 to the Capitalers. In Perpignan, Catalan Dragons are drubbing Salford Reds 26-6 at half time. I don't think I'll stay up for Wigan's journey down the road to Widnes - I think that might be a bit processional... which could take them top of the league, after Warrington fell short at Headingley on Friday night.

StreetCowboy Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 (edited) London Broncos 26-16 up, and the commentators were beside themselves for that last try. Their commending Phil Bentham's performance now, as well and Catalans have finished 40-18 up against Salford. Italy well beaten in the other code SC And as London Broncos run in their eighth try, the commentators are quite incoherent with excitement! Now they're encouraging London supporters to make the trip up to Wigan for next week; though that might be a challenge too far. But then they have Widnes on the iPitch and Wakefield at home...

StreetCowboy Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Well I can't believe that I missed the rugby highlight of the weekend - Wigan, hoping to go top of the Superleague, go down by a point ot bottom club Widnes, who got their first win since their return to Superleague Widnes Vikings 37-36 Wigan Warriors http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/rugby-league/17264196 To be fair, I did enjoy watching the France England game SC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StreetCowboy Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 "It's all too easy for Willy Manu..." - hull go ahead... I was going to say Broncos are holding their own (so to speak) 6-6 at the DW.
