Sucks I don't have that channel
I know I'll be able to find a download the next day but I wanted to be able to watch it live. Maybe I'll watch a webstream if the quality is up to standard.

I've never even heard of Universal Sports, even when I had the Uverse top tier sports package. Dafrick is this? I doubt my regular sports bar even has it.

Anyone catch the New Zealand-England match? Pretty entertaining show for a match with no tries. Pretty wide open, but lots of handling errors.
I've discussed this with quite a few union fans (I think including a couple on here), I really think something needs to be done to decrease the reliance upon penalty kicks in matches. Too many big matches are decided on kicks. I'm sorry but you shouldn't get an option for points because someone was offsides 45 meters out.
What do yal think about only allowing a kick for goal option once you're inside the 22 meter line? Outside of that you only have the kick for touch or quick tap option?
Wish we would've stayed up for the France-Aussie match, sounds like that one was an onslaught on the scoreboard.

Yeah you could tell it was the first test of the season for them. Lots of errors on both sides. But it shouldn't have been that bad cause the England players just finished the Premiership season and the All Blacks are in the middle of Super Rugby so they should all be in form.
Agree, with you on the penalty kicks.

It was an ugly game for the French. They look like they came out ready to play but then the Wallabies just squashed them. Granted I didn't think this French side would win but I didn't think it would be that bad. France was missing some of their big names who should be back next week for the second test so that hopefully will be a better game.
Springboks won big too over the World XV though it was competitive for the first half. Really though that was just a warmup for them for Wales nextweekend.
Getting ready to watch Ireland vs Argentina and Japan vs Canada. Might was USA vs Scotland too even though I had the score spoiled for me.

Both were good matches. Argentina was playing without their 13 European based players who are in Pensacola training for The Rugby Championship but the young Puma squad put up a good fight against the Irish. Winger Manuel Montero looks set to be a breakout star in the future.

The solution is to play with better discipline and don't commit penalties.

Oh and this is terrible because then the game would slow down A LOT and/or we'd see a lot of binning.

Really the kicks from distance are the most exciting ones anyway.
