Futtocks Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 Alternatively, bookmark this page: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/live-guide It isn't as logically formatted as it used to be - in fact, it has become a mess - but it is still a good way to get directly to streaming video or audio links.

The Hallucinating Goose Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 Another entertaining game so far! France looking even better today than they did on Wednesday, seems a lot more physical today, England have gotta sort out the handling errors.

Man of Kent Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 Great crowd in. It’s quite shocking the first time you hear a collision. You feel it. Anyway, France are a cut above and that bit more organised and, yes, physical. That big number 7 is a bit of a beast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right, this has been a fiasco across both tests. No match report on the BBC RL page for the first test, either, last time I looked. The coverage itself - excellent!

The Hallucinating Goose Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 Congratulations to France for winning the series, well done to both teams for putting on two fantastic games of RL! This series feels like a real watershed moment for the wheelchair game, I can only see it going from strength to strength from now on, not one person that has watched these games won't want to see more. This is a brilliant form of the game and I personally just want to see more and more of it! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Futtocks Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 Two matches of great entertainment. A brilliant comeback by England to get within a single point, but then the World Champions had enough at the death. 1 "We are easily breakable, by illness or falling, or a million other ways of leaving this earthly life.

Damien Posted November 13, 2021 Author Share Posted November 13, 2021 France were very, very good in both games and you can see why they are World Champions. England aren't far off but just look a class below at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unapologetic pedant Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 The officials seemed a lot keener to find things to call than on Wednesday. As in the the running game, the play isn`t as fluent and creative when there are too many stoppages. I hope nobody ever has the bright idea to introduce a VR in Wheelchair RL.
