Not only is it a shame there is so little international rugby on free to sit TV, it's a massive shame it's on TNT with this commentary team. Absymal, one-eyed crap.

Uefa allowing domestic games abroad is a sad turning point, ending soccer as we’ve known it | Leander Schaerlaeckens
The change may seem small, but the profit-seeking games are clearly the first step in a mass reorientation of the club game

I can't quite put my finger on which hypocrisy is greater here, but perhaps James would have had the opportunity to ask him about it had he not been banned from attending Reform's "free speech" conference.
“We will police the streets and not the tweets and change all that damaging legislation,” says Nigel Farage on stage at Reform – just after welcoming the minister responsible for passing the Online Safety Act onto the stage with him, and into his party.

What fun... Wikipedia may be blocked in the UK under a later stage of our insanely self-defeating online safety law.
There's a court case going on, but if Wikipedia lose it they're going to IP-block the UK because the only other alternative would be to put in adult ID checks.

This is complete junk from TNT. The #E3saxoclassic 'highlights' start with the races in bits and the major riders in their finishing positions. If you want to know how the races planned out you need to watch a chunk of the full thing, this tells you nothing .
