Premiership Rugby 20/21 - Rd 18

I wonder if BT will stop showing all games when fans are back,
They initially said that they were only showing all of them because there were no fans - I hope they've rethought this and decided to continue regardless.

Clubs are against it

I can understand why, but I'd like to know how much it actually affects ticket sales - rugby crowds are small enough that most of them are diehards and would rather be there than watch on TV anyway,

Having all the games watchable just makes it much more accessible and increase fan numbers across the board - surely BT would want it as well? I imagine they've increased subscribers - I know I pay a lot more now than I used to (used to have the free BT with my phone contract, now I pay for the full whack so I can watch on my TV/can cast if I want etc.) but will definitely cancel my subscription if they go back to only showing 2-3 games a weekend

Yeh but you know how backwards thinking the PRL are

Quins 7 looks good.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Robson playing really well,
Hope he gets to start this summer

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

good game this

Marcus Smith really needs to start for England.

What a try from Quins.

 

[Not Mike Brown's Sock]

What a try

Honestly Quinn's should not be allowed to slow the ball down so much twice Robson had to slow because of players being in the way considering how wasps have been pinged...

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Nah Wasps dragged the quins player back down, and Robson IMO was milking the Quins player the other.

Ref has been saying wasps players are pulling Quins boys over onto the wasps side of the ruck, that's why he's not giving them I think

What a try from Quins.

Smith over Umaga 100%, he gets stuck in to defence too which is good to see. Smith really needs a shot...so knowing Eddie Jones that means

21 robson comes on at 74min
22 Smith comes on at 76 min
23 Odogwu coming on at FB on 78 min

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

thinking Odogwu comes on lol

 

[Jimbo]

Marler massively in at the side ffs

 

[Not Mike Brown's Sock]

Loooooooovellly

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

"Now Wayne M8 I have something to look at"

 

[Not Mike Brown's Sock]

Ooooh brown ffs

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Yeh I reckon that's it for brown and Quins now.

Maybe playoffs if they make it

 

[Not Mike Brown's Sock]

Thats probably his Quins career done now. Crushing

 

[Jimbo]

Assuming that was 100% accidental really feel for Brown
