Is there a NH nation that isn't raping the South Pacific?
Iceland
Don't they hunt whales?

@Crucial except when you get sick of them bumbling around to outdo each other in a "highlights to go to Benny Hill theme tune" performance.
So anyone know who's broadcasting in UK? Is it on bt?
No, it's on Premier Sports.
Great. Not sure I fancy forking out £13 for 2 hours of viewing.
WTF s Premier Sports?
Shit I hate all this swapping around of broadcasters on NH tours -
Cheers, found it. I am on Virgin Media and it looks like I can add it on there for 9.99
Need to check that I can then remove it and only cop one month.
Think the missus has invited people around on Sat night so recording it and watching later is my best option -
hope the French show up for this game.

Scott Spedding butchered a certain try last week by ignoring a glaring overlap, but other than that he had a goodish game and he has long kicking distance off the tee. Bit surprised to see him dropped altogether unless he is injured. Dulin can be quite slippery though, a French Shane Williams.
Also: aside the 2 wingers, that team is all French/French colonies. Nice to see.

Spedding has a foot injury.

Uini Atonio was born in Timaru and of Samoan heritage.

Was waiting for someone to point out the error I was bound to make cheers.
You are right of course and he has tits for hands that guy.

@Billy-Tell Maybe but he is having a pretty good end of the year. Making big yards ball in hand, and very busy.

Highly likely they will. The stadium is just down the road. No excuses for getting lost on the way.

Nice little double header on a sunday morning ,
I reckon the Ireland v Wallabies game will be worth getting up for too

@Crucial You can subscribe on Sky for 12.99 a month. Unfortunately, probably not a channel that many of the local pubs will have either I reckon.
@Stargazer said in France:
So frustrated by the UK broadcast this year.
This is the third different pay tv provider their games are on!
It's insane and frustrating as at least previously you knew if you paid for sky you would have it.
All these different providers are just driving up the cost of watching as you have to pay for all. (And although that seems like more money eventually you lose people to dodgy streams)
I already shelled out extra for BT this month and will not be doing it for a third service so it looks like a stream for me when I have always paid to watch previously.
I hope the All blacks don't want a following in the UK as this is a great way to alienate any casual viewers. (I sadly am obsessed so will persist to watch in some way!)

@Davesofthunder Over here it's pretty much Sky for the England games and the BBC for all the rest, due to the RFU's deal with the satan that is Murdoh. Can you not get a BBC feed where you are?
-
@mimic The Ireland-Aust and Wales-SA games aren't on live though. I was hoping to watch one of those before the AB test but there are only replays later in the day.
The only other live games on Sun morning are Eng-Arg and Exeter Chiefs v Worcester Warriors - WTF?
