Do they often start slow as players are still missing some competive match sharpness?
In my day.... say late 80's into the 90's it seemed to be 3,4 or 5 weeks before things got properly warmed up and reached running temperature.
Then sometime this century things were pretty much hot from the start.
This match would be pretty much unthinkable at any time of the season when I was a pup, nevermind first match.

Thing is Cas had a couple of chances where it looked easier to score than not. That they didn't was great work from Bradford and it swung the game in their favour.
And Well Done Bradford No.10, stayed involved and forced the last try out wide for the conversion.
Another yard or two and .....?

Yes, under news and trending.
I have those options on Iplayer but not RB. Just a choice of games (or not) and that's all. I had the football match and that was that.

Could be.
I think the BBC are showing it in 3 different places though - red button, iPlayer and sport website. I don't know if you've added all three together?
I spent some time searching on RedButton but found nowt, just a football match. Anyone else found it on RB?
-
I wonder what Mr Lyngard is thinking?

Took me about 5 seconds to find on iPlayer, what was the issue?
Silicon knicker twist issue. Unfortunately it was resolved all too quickly.
-
Taken me some 20 minutes to give up on Red Button, realise I can't cast to TV from the App and then finally get iplayer to work. Restarts all round.
As a Cas fan I'm wishing it took somewhat longer.

Rugby League's Big Bang by William Lawless. Just popped up on FB and costs £4.99 on Kindle. Probably won't read it till Crete though so can't recommend it but a nudge to others if they are interested.
-
Why? I just keep a page open on Chrome, little space taken. Sorted.
Am I missing something by not downloading the App?

Looking like a close game so far 10.6 ht
Thinking that London have been good but Goole looking very lively this half. We'll see.
-
I'm liking the re-plays, can't remember them before on these broadcasts. Or is that just me being slack? 10-0 to London. 4 mins to go as Goole go close.

I have to say the BBC have done well to hide the London/Goole match. I found nowt on teletext, iplayer, red button or the RL site. Not true though, if you click on the actual game link then there are details but how would you know which game to investigate if you didn't know which game is being televised? Once more, RL on TV saves the day. Again.

I've been known to hang round the Guardian App but gave up on the RL site long ago. Good if you're into NRL but otherwise.... nah.

It’s the one French RL town I’m desperate to visit - everything I’ve seen and heard about it sounds ideal.
Spent a week in pre season Carcasonne once. Had Cassoulet 4 nights out of 7. The first gobfull and the last were magnificent. If we do it again I'll venture out of the Old Town do a match. Well Recommended.

Right then, back home now and the phone on Wifi (data disabled) can see the new servers but not the tablet!
Btw, Lee Crooks was in the pub and he's looking really well!
-
No access TRL forums today on my android tablet but when I popped out I noticed it was back on my phone. Back in the house it's still unavailable on the tablet! Are there different servers for Wifi tablets and data phones? It's all I can think of.

Shocked by the lack of response over Wolf Hall. Saw Conclave at the Flix which was Ace, then went to bed after the chop on iplayer. Grim. Both excellent I think.

A memory more that anything but around 1976 I was 14 and in the ATC. During an Air Display at RAF Finingley (Doncaster/Robin Hood) the Red Arrows(Folland Gnats) swooped low over the buildings rather than risk accidental mass crowd deaths. You could see the rivets(briefly), then the hot draughts and then the smell of.....paraffin! Kerosene technically but you can imagine just how giddy we were.

Question for those of you who may know more about brewery workings than I do.
Why is a pint of Taylor's beer in my local Taylor's tenanted pub generally between £1 & £1.50 more per pint than in a free house a mile down the road? Do brewery's usually try to price themselves out of business in their own pubs?
In Knaresborough you can buy TT-L for £2.50 while 50 yards away it's £5.50. Well, it was the last time I looked. Some time ago now.
Thing is it's not easy getting Bitter these days, bah!

There are very few things that would turn me away from our sport but a consensus endorsement of referees deliberately impacting the outcome of games is one of them.
And rightly or wrongly, with or without prejudice, intentionally or not, they quite often do. This invisible ref is a wonderful thing but of course he's difficult to perceive.

I'm glad Cas have got all the decisions or else imagine the embarrassment caused by the clearly superior opposition. Ish.
