To get more potential viewers alerted, you ought to edit the thread title to mention the date of the final.

Last time I tried to watch that channel, they'd introduced geo-blocking, as had NA TV. But they seem to have switched that off again, thankfully. Today's men's final and the women's final that's currently under way are also on https://www.sportenfrance.com which I've just checked and it also works without a VPN.

Penrith not hanging around - nice try!

Staines continues the comeback.

Seaman Staines gets Wests on the scoreboard at last.

Koroisau limps off - if Wests didn't have bad luck, they'd have no luck at all.

Then the Broncos go up the other end and score after pretty much every period of sustained defence.

The Tigers have gone close several times down their right hand side, but Brisbane's defence is really good.

Brainfart from Fainu, there. Brisbane score almost immediately.

I remember seeing the score at that point. Somewhat boggled by the fact that the score stayed that way to the end.

Impressed by the scoreline. Looking forward to watching the highlights.

A very intelligent guy.

HKR were playing at top speed all game, and Wigan were struggling to contain them. Wigan made a fair few breaks in the second half, but the Robins were as quick to act in defence as they were in attack. Impressive and entertaining from the home side. Wigan were put on the back foot and always struggled to recover.

Only after Hall told him to start running again.

They were speculating at half time that he may have had an early knock to the head that wasn't spotted. He would normally run onto an inside pass from Marshall in his sleep. Miski finally gets Wigan on the scoreboard. They've looked a bit more incisive overall so far in the second half.

Ethan Havard's first time on the pitch since the Grand Final. Glad he's back in action.

16 missed tackles in 35 minutes is half time hairdryer standard.

Gildart scores against his alma mater. Far too much confidence in an easy Wigan win from the studio pundits. I look forward to half time, when they confidently explain to us why the opposite was always going to happen.

First try to a boy named Sue.

Parramatta were right in that game for so long, but deserved to lose with discipline like that.

The 54th anniversary of this eye-popping headline (and the story behind it).

They know each other far too well to pretend that they are outraged.
