The Welsh boys were wilting within the first ten minutes - the heat was brutal! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StandOffHalf Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 Hope it's available on that Occitane TV channel. Tested it yesterday and the live stream played fine for me on my laptop. Thanks to those who mentioned this channel, as I hadn't been aware that it was on anything other than Bein Sport. As to the match itself, it's hard to see anything other than a France win with a bit to spare. I'll go 28-8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UTK Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 Hard to get a complete read but based on some footage put out from an opposed session between France and Toulouse I think Cesar Rouge may be partnering Arthur Mourgue in the halves for this one. I'm assuming if this was a WC game where Fages was unavailable it would be Albert/Gigot taking that spot but it'd be interesting to see Rouge get a run.

Chronicler of Chiswick Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 Just seen that the Gironde has banned all public outdoor events and indoor ones where there's no air conditioning because of the heat - any danger of that happening in Albi?

kiggy Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 We've just flown the opposite way, Lourdes to Dublin...long term commitment otherwise I would be off to Albi. 38⁰ to 18⁰ which has been bliss. Apparently the temperature in the south of France will drop a bit sometime on Sunday so the match shouldn't be that dangerous...but still hotter than hades Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Number 16 Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 Earlier on I bumped into the Welsh squad checking into their hotel. Nothing says 'international Rugby League' like 'Ibis Budget'. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disappointed, after getting my hopes up that I might get to watch this. Perhaps they will have deferred coverage at some point?
