[RWC2023] France vs Uruguay (14/09/2023)

[Which Tyler]

Big test for the new anthems

That's a pass for the French - possibly because they turned them way down and let the crowd sing

Is there no ITV4 HD? Feels like I'm watching the screen through greaseproof paper

Edit: apparently it is a thing but only on Sky and Virgin Media

Itvx and streaming to the telly via Chromecast looks good

Never heard the national anthem of Uruguay before. It's an interesting one.

 

[Lé Ddanno]

The ad break between the anthems and KO really fucks me off and dampens my enthusiasm

I like it, it's bouncy

Now there's an idea.
If they're going for pre-recorded anthems, record a crowd singing the anthem at their home ground, and play that through the tannoy!

Need to get that sweet ad revenue as much as you can get.

You are my world cup inspiration

South American anthems are great. Essentially **** you Spain and **** you natives.

 

[Lé Ddanno]

Has Macalou settled at flanker now? Not seen him on the wing for a year or more

 

[TRF_Olyy]

And freesat

I thought that's what's built into my TV, but I guess not

Itvx and streaming to the telly via Chromecast looks good

Yeah, I've switched to the app on my tv

 

[IT157]

At work and my manager away from the desk. Trying to see if I can watch some of the game before he gets back!

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Stop the count!

 

[Lé Ddanno]

Ha, fantastic.

Don't let your 9 take restarts you geniuses

 

[IT157]

Damn I just missed the try!

 

[pagliaccio_euforico]

This could be the flairiest game of the tournament.

 

[McTallshort]

Always thought France were overrated

 

[IT157]

Interesting that a lot of the smaller less fancied nations are scoring the first try of the game.
