What was the point of the BBC getting the World Cup? They are only showing England games. Not even a highlight program or a news update. I don't see how that is going to progress the sport.

I think the highlights program is on bbc1 tonight around 11.50 irc

You don't see how England v Australia being shown to 2.4m people in Britain could progress the sport?

the bbc are ***k they get the rugby league world cup and only show selected games thats why i signed up with premiersports and i am glad as the commentary is 10 times better and i can watch very game,the bbc will never change they would rather waste there time with tiddly winks or bowls.

When is the tiddlywinks championships? I forgot to set the Sky+. Is it on iPlayer?

Anyone care to make a guess as to whether last night's attendance at Warry was larger or smaller than the number watching on Premier Sports?

Well I sky+ed it from Premier Sports to watch it this morning, does that count?

Hi Lugger067

What is the "***k" swear word you use to describe the bbc?, I'm normally quite good with swear words but I'm struggling with this one.

Is it c0ck?

My guess was that it started with a W.

I'm really happy, I was flicking down the channels on my virgin box this aft and Premier Sports has appeared. According to my mates on facebook all virgin customers get it for free until xmas, and those on the XL package get it for free after that as well. currently sat watching the Fiji Ireland game from last night, with the Tonga Scotland game on after this.... Happy Chappy!!!!!!!

Cracking game tonight Scotland Tonga. Best attendance in Cumbria since the 90's. Well done Premier Sports.

Been fantastic games so far but for every great match it's leaving me more and more frustrated that the powers that be (BBC, RFL, Sky, whoever . . .) couldn't come to some agreement to get it before a wider audience.

Serving up an amazing product but mainly only a minority audience of die-hard fans will be watching on Premier Sports or Virgin.

Makes me wonder if we might look back on this WC and see it as a massive missed opportunity.

There are other places you can watch RLWC games that aren't on the BBC other than Premier Sport. Although clearly I wouldn't suggest you did so, as that would be a bad thing.

I enjoy the VR commentary as he reaches a decision.
Klein certainly earned his fee last night, having to judge on most of the tries

OK, we don't always agree with the decision of the VR, but hearing his view certainly helps appreciate how difficult it can be

I love day the other day (Fiji Ireland I think), where the ref say something along the lines of Jesus, I can't see anything
