| The BBC do not give a fig about us, the license payer.
You watch what they decide, show you what they decide show you.

Sorry....the BBC showed a Union game last weekend?
I was under the impression that SKY owned the autumn internationals......oh, I am right, it was on SKY action and Sky Main Event but not on BBC......

| Got to be the best World Cup to date for shock results.
Tonga beating NZ was a shock, Fiji dumping them out of the tournement is an earthquake!
Also Lebanon have put in a very credible display against Tonga.
As always Rugby League needs a plan to keep these teams playing in the 4 year gap til the next World Cup. Dont care if its 6Nations, 4Nations, Pacific Cup, mid season tests...we need more games and to build on this.

Correct. Too often RL let's momentum dwindle after good progress.

England not playing one game at home in 2014 after a positive 2013 World Cup was ridiculous, I was sat at Wembley for the 2013 Semi's surrounded by Southern accents all enjoying one of the best games I've ever seen...then we just go off the radar for 2 years

| In previous world cups the quarter finals were the worst stage - 3 games were just the big 3 handing out drubbings, and the other game was to decide who was going to come 4th.
Today we had 2 great games, and tomorrow's game might be at least worth watching.

| That was the most depressing atmosphere at a RL game I can ever recall........I was given some spare tickets yesterday and left them behind the bar at my local to be given away.......nobody wanted them. I'm not sure if they've announced the gate yet but I'll be surprised if it is 5 figures. I can't understand how they can get a 35k sell out for a soccer game last week but can't even get half that for a World Cup Quarter Final?

| Lebanon's 'chalked off' tries were all correct decisions, though. But a great performance from them.
