Have to say I’m very impressed with the Ourleague coverage. 

We even had a bit of picture-in-picture replay a few minutes ago. The stream hung up on me once during the first half (live audio, but frozen video), but a page reload sorted that out immediately.

Tremendous viewing. If you haven’t got the Our League app, get it now!

And if, for whatever reason, you can't use the app., just go to the website and watch it there.

10 all after a scintillating break by Sheffield. It may be a low-scoring game, but there have been plenty of almost-but-not-quite incidents near each team's try line.

Edit - 12:10 after the conversion.

Wow! Sheffield score the try of the night. Great length of the field run and a conversion puts them ahead.

Interesting last few minutes to come.....?

Sheffield double up with another try soon after. Right under the posts again, so 18:10 is imminent.

Top of the table for the Eagles, as they score another try on 79 minutes, and Bradford are down to 11 men.

At the risk of sounding like Bruce Forsyth - good game, good game.

As soon as I saw the squad I knew the Eagles would be much better than last year and probably the best side since they won the league.

I think even Tubby has been surprised by how well they've gelled 

"I am the avenging angel; I come with wings unfurled, I come with claws extended from halfway round the world. I am the God Almighty, I am the howling wind. I care not for your family; I care not for your kin. I come in search of terror, though terror is my own; I come in search of vengeance for crimes and crimes unknown. I care not for your children, I care not for your wives, I care not for your country, I care not for your lives." - (c) Jim Boyes - "The Avenging Angel"

Can't complain at that. Bulls sort of beat themselves, but that would be doing a disservice to a more than decent Sheffield side. Harsh reminder that Bradford are a promoted side in a tough division and it aint getting any easier. Desperately need some last tackle options and composure IMO. 

That said, decent game, best team won.

Sheffield three from three, eh? Quite the turn-up. Must watch more Championship this year, it promises to be very competitive.

Very good production via the app (cast to my TV) too. Me likey

Yep, just figured out tonight that I could Chomecast it. Awesome. Fair play to the RFL here, watchable quality pictures, professional commentators, and decent quality rugby. And doesn't cost a penny! Along with the weekly Toronto game, it'll be great to see a full season of Championship rugby.

Long time lurker, with little to add! Just felt that after watching that, I should congratulate all involved, and couldn't find anywhere else to do it! That game, coverage, commentary, was absolutely spot on! The RFL have done brilliantly, finally!

Their live streams have improved since they started, so this season should be good.
