A lot of the form Huddersfield shewed in the second half against Wigan, but without having gone so far behind first.

Lovely timing of the final pass.

Nearly a fifth of the screen taken up by a footer with the Sky Sports Logo and the score. Have SL+ accidentally loaded up the "impaired vision" stream?

Might be fun.

Storm v Panthers, as the visitors try to break Melbourne's amazing Round 1 winning streak. Some Chateau Papenhuyzen claret has already been uncorked.

Warriors 12:16 Sharks. Disappointed by the hosts' performance. I hope they aren't backsliding after a great 2023.

Nice video. Give, if you can.

Well, eventually. Both sides were pretty sloppy for a large part of the first half.

Hosking, on the other hand, does score! Great take of the high ball.

The Pong sets up a try for Gamble, but the referee calls obsctuction.

Messy, but that's early season rust for you. Canberra take the lead with a penalty for a crusher tackle.

They churn game show episodes out pretty fast these days too, but the production companies have got much slicker at disguising it. Still, at least the audience are somewhere warm for a few hours without having to pay for it.

The US has 330 million people, many of them with more disposable income than brains." suggest the author has a sizeable chip on his shoulder.

Today's the 50th anniversary of when Terry Scott accidentally drove off the end of the Tees Transporter Bridge and landed in the safety net.

He's in his grace period, due to being a new face to many SL fans. By round 6 he'll be Satan incarnate for making an entirely justifiable and fair decision.

"Because it’s brutal and fast and it feels like there are as many stoppages in play as Jets quarterbacks throw touchdown passes in their games. Which is to say: there aren’t many."

The moment of the Vegas double-header?

There was a breakdown posted on Twitter earlier today, not sure what the source was. It claimed approximately 5,000 from the UK, 15,000 from Down Under and the remainder were US spectators.

Heartbreaker from Morgan Smith!

Whoa just a SECOND! 22 all! That try means that, after the conversion attempt, it'll be... 22 all!
