The match is as close to a sell out as you would need, so fans enjoy going to the footy in the arvo is of no consequence here. Any media outlet will tell you that 7.30pm on a Sunday is one of the most coveted time slots, if not most coveted, including family viewing. Its no surprise that the media continually call for the AFL GF to move to a twilight or evening start, whilst the NRL which have embraced every opportunity a tv broadcaster can offer, have a Sunday evening timeslot. It’s because it’s the best time for ratings. If the NRL moves earlier, the ratings will subsequently drop.

Oh god no, why would they want do that?

There was a CEO of a large financial lender who told me about 5 years ago he would never sponsor in RL again after his first time went sour citing player behaviour as the problem. Well they just completed their second year of being a premier partner of a NRL club.

Should have been six again there

That’s game over. Nothing will go wrong for Wigan from here

It’s looking that way isn’t it.

Had that happened, they would still need two scores, unlike having gone for the try and scoring one.

There goes the two points they just earned. I feel swiftly vindicated in my thoughts KR should have gone for the try.

Not enough talk for Burgess there who could have let the ball go dead if his team mates actually opened their mouths to tell him how much time he had

Yeah, I understand the rationale, but they need to cross the line. Best doing that sooner rather than later in my book.

Should have passed the ball on the wing there for a try. I feel like KR are blowing their opportunities when close to the line.

I’m not a fan of taking two here

Double post

Oh come on, stopping the game for this is dreadful. Absolutely took the lungs out of KRs set there

I thought there was a free play from knock on in SL?
