whos filming it if its not going out for broadcast?

There are highlights of every Super League game whether it is broadcast or not.

Sorry if I missed it but what is the issue with French tv that’s changed from from last year 

[Old Frightful 5,764]

Watts; knock on eases pressure on the French line.

Cas now back to full compliment with about 7 mins left.

Oh the delicious irony ! If there was anything positive out of Folau's signing it was publicity and people would be interested in seeing him debut if only to hope he fails, and it's not on TV. You couldn't make it up. We know Union would love to keep League down,  and those running our game are doing a great job of mismanaging it, it's almost as if the top brass of the RFL are closet Uni.........no let's not go down that road.

[Bert1 127]

Hows Maloney gone?

[Old Frightful 5,764]

Att : 8,886.

3 mins left, still 30-18.

[Old Frightful 5,764]

Samkins try.

34-18.

It's ok. It's only a game of rugby, there will be loads of them on tv this year.

There's a whole thread on that subject, including all the usual suspects being blamed, whether they have been involved or not.

There are brief highlights of all Catalans Dragons and St Esteve XIII Catalan matches on the club's website.

Tomkins surely man of the match... hat trick and at least one assist. 

[Old Frightful 5,764]

Maloney converts for a final score of 36-18.

I think you'll find it should be "passed it".

Cheers , just had a scan of that . A little light shone on the issue there and hopefully a solution in the pipeline

Catalans never fail to confuse me. By all accounts, they sounded really impressive tonight, meanwhile against Huddersfield they sounded appalling!

[aj1908 953]

Well, as I've said many times and as he proved last season for Cats and in the 9s for England he is still one of the best in SL.

He will also know SW will be looking at him for England as you would assume SW rates him and trusts him. There are a few positions up for grabs with England which ST could fill.

But, but, but, so many people have said categorically that he has "loosed" all his pace. I'm so confused!

What is this sorcery. The game wasn't on tv, how can we have these moving pictures of part of the game!

I took a series of photographs, printed them on glossy paper, then flicked them in front of my phone whilst recording it.

I think you'll agree. the result is seamless.

(Ignore that SKY stuff embedded in my video, I put that on to avoid prosecution.)

And just wait, Dunbar, till we see moving pictures of Les Dracs as they set out on the road that ends at Wembley; that'll be cup-and-sorcery!
