@daffy-jaffy First game of the season and first jersey clash of the season! Many, or at least I, would have a bit of difficulty telling them apart after a few beers.

So only the Moana Pacific game televised? Streamed? Fucking amateurs running this comp
Yep, usually bugger all preseason games televised or streamed, they are not generally worth watching.

Chiefs v MO was a charity game.Yeah I realise this, but they could at least stream all the warm up games. FFS no one can go and watch them. It is just part of the lack of brains that NZR et al have. Anything to build engagement is good. But no, we get nothing

@machpants IIRC, all the preseason games have been moved at least once, except for last night's MP vs Chiefs game, so televising them has had added complications.

I imagine that's up to the individual franchises to organise. Most franchises aren't particularly good at catering to their fans, unfortunately.

Correct. Never has been common. A crappy sideline stream on Facebook at most.

Never has been, can't remember. As I said they tend to not be a good promotion for the game , because they usually messy affairs.

Waratahs trial yesterday versus 3 of the lower lights in Sydney club Rugby (Two Blues, West Harbour, Hunter). Headed along with the Renegades Treasurer and President as a later minute decision on what the fuck to do on a Saturday.
There were no Wallabies on the field, but the Tahs still won every 30 minute period by 20ish points, conceding only one try. Lot of Clubbies and extended squad in tahs shirts, and they were reasonably impressive.
But the quality of the opposition was ... Well, poor. There's a reason these clubs prop up the bottom of the table. If the Two Blues props are getting match payments, they're spending most of it on Colonel.
CEO of NSW Rugby was there, and sat down for a chat with us. He sort of knows me by sight from a few functions as I'm on the board for Suburban Rugby. An interesting insight on a few players and the lay of the land numbers wise.
Nice stadium in terms of structure but the lines for beer were too long. Also: $7 for a can of Tooheys? Fucking hell... We need to up our prices.
