Most, if not all, matches will be carried either on NBC or Universal Sports

Finally get to watch it in America without having to pay out the arse

I'm paying $3000 to watch a couple games in person.

I'm curious if multiple people will be able to share a single login to the Universal Sports PPV online streaming.

I'd be there too if I could get the time off of school and had the money. I know some guys from SLOBS (South Louisiana Old Boys in Lafayette) are heading out over there though. Watch matches are you going to?

haha...It's a little snug to be wearing casually.

I'll be wearing either New Orleans or LSU rugby gear at the games, and rocking Saints clothes other times. Gonna be chilly...refreshing change from 90 degrees every day.

Just realized the NRL Grand Final is on 10/2 in Sydney. I arrive in Sydney on 10/1. May have to experience a little league action.

That ought to be interesting.

Surprisingly, I'm not too fond of league, despite being a wing.

See I can't stand league but I love 7s. Maybe if I played league I'd enjoy it a little more.

This is Union not League. League is more like American football considering they have only four phases (if I recall correctly) and no rucks.

He's talking about NRL, which is going on at the same time.
