How do you know Spark didn't throw an offer in?

Because they told me

The competitor hasn't bid yet. No chance NZR is taking Sky's upfront offer without using Spark to jack up the price. Negotiations were put on hold until the completion of RWC. You think Steve Tew/Mark Robinson is negotiating the biggest piece of business to impact the game while they are wining and ...

You could make the argument that he surpasses Rupeni Caucau in the raw talent stakes; as unpopular as that may be

I believe an injury replacement can't join the squad within 48 hours of a game.

He's profiteering off someone else's property. He shouldn't be so miffed. If he's willing to pay tens of millions of pounds/dollars for said content then I'm sure the 6 Nations will treat him with the same loyalty as they do the BBC and such. EH?

On a wider point, I don't see how you could restrict it to Tier 1 players changing allegiance to Tier 2/3 nations because the overall sentiment seems to be that some Tier 2 nations would become Tier 1 with the help of better players.

'Europe's rugby powerhouses are not behind the idea of players being able to represent more than one Test playing nation, NZ Rugby chief executive Steve Tew says.' - I agree with this and so do most if not everybody /thread I don't agree with duel eligibility, but wouldn't be averse to some sort of...

What if it were the actual rugby players that will make up the RWC squad, but playing football

I believe the back story to Lousi and Vuna’s complaints is that ought to be a Tongan home game - in fact Tonga haven’t played at home in yonks - as World Rugby doesn’t deem their home ground suitable, yet the Samoan ground was given the tick of approval.

A friend has tried it on the archived games and found the quality to be much lower than broadcast. Anything with fast movement is quite jerky. We have fibre and find lightbox/netflix to be jerky sometimes and TVNZ on demand usually, and that is just films/series rather than sports. I've bought it a...

Well no suprises to see Spark have bent over already... This will be due to most commercial premises (pubs, clubs etc) failing to have decent internet and not wanting to bother with the setup costs of running TV over internet. If this comes to all SKY subscribers Spark have pretty much admitted def...

Funny thing the Japanese Top League. Never seen any of it on TV. All these players who have gone there to top up their pension pot could've been picking fruit for all i know. Couple games a week are shown on NZ TV. As you’d imagine, it’s a fluid brand of rugby with little minimal defensive confront...

The reason Reece is playing for the All Blacks is because Ireland internationals Paddy Jackson and Stuart Olding got up to a bit of spit-roasting. The resulting rape trial, protests and #ibelieveher movement was the backdrop to Connacht ripping up Reece's contract after his domestic violence charge ...

Ofa T is strongly rumoured to be joining his bro at the Crusaders.

As is Jordie B, who’s got designs on playing 12 full time.

I’d be checking on Dillon Hunt’s contract status at the Landers. Played second fiddle to Lentjies all season.

I don't think you're going to see any worse scorelines by including Japan, Samoa, USA/Cananda in there. And you'd probably need one other from Europe. And given the new editions will be spread over four groups of four then the minnows are going up against just one powerhouse, as opposed to currently...

Technically it wasn't last gasp... New Zealand missed an even later gasp penalty which could've won it. They truly are the worst side we've sent to the Under 20 World Champs. That said, well done Wales - despite NZ strangely dominating at set piece the Little Leeks smashed us at the breakdown and de...

Anyone wanna do a XV from a full strength Crusaders and Saracens?

Regardless who wins this hypothetical match, I'd like to see Alex Goode and Razor Robertson out on a 48-hour bender.
