@Stargazer geo-coded?

[Stargazer]

@Bones I'm watching it from NZ.

@Stargazer bugger, doesn't seem to like me coming in from UK - just get "There was an error playing this video". Now I have to do work instead....

[Stargazer]

@Bones Did you try both links?

I don't understand why they're geoblocking preseason games; no broadcaster is losing money as it's not televised.

Looks like there are some quickly uploaded highlights for each score on Tahs Twitter (not sure if geocoded)

[Stargazer]

This ref has no feel for the nature of the game. Second yellow in a preseason game; this time Tomkinson for coming in from the side.

Pretty messy half, highlanders up 14-7 with 2 x YC, scrums were messy AF...pre-season joy.

2nd stream good quality on phone.

@Stargazer yep - might just be a Bones issue, nevermind.

Angus Bell for the Tahs is going pretty well. Good runner of the ball and seems to be pretty busy.

He's got serious hype on him.

@KiwiMurph LOL you gotta love the enthusiasm of Waratahs supporters (esp their press), one OK pre-season 'game' and they're world beaters.

(hyperbole of this post added to align with Tahs fans)

The Tahs have a good test first up - Crusaders in Nelson.

[Stargazer]

According to the Sky tv guide, the preseason game between the Crusaders and Hurricanes this afternoon will be LIVE on Sky Sport 1 (from 3.45pm)!

[Daffy Jaffy]

@Stargazer After reading your discovery I searched forward to next Friday on Sky hoping the Blues v Canes game might be televised. Instead I found that the Highlanders v Crusaders is live 6pm next Friday. Two lots of preseason intel on The Crusaders delivered to the door for the other teams!

The Jaguares are destroying Georgia XV (without its first stringers) at the moment. Just discovered the livestream: https://www.espn.com.ar/rugby/nota/_/id/6518325/si-estas-afuera-de-latinoamerica-mira-aca-el-streaming-de-jaguares-georgia-xv?

Edited to add that the Jaguares' outfit is worth a deduction of at least 100 points. Awful.
