Nah sure live darts would miss out or maybe one of the 20 repeats of the Rugby Club.
The level of coverage has slipped just as the quality of the rugby has increased, or at least the closeness of the games.
Rebels lead the Blues 11-6 with about 10 minutes left in the 1st half and I'm sitting in work wondering why this is not on some down under radio station so that I could listen to that instead of work colleagues rambling.
Anyone know of any radio coverage for the self praise is no praise Super Rugby?
Champions of Europe 09, 11 & 12!
Pro 12 and Challenge Cup Champions 13!
Pro 12 Champions 14!
Magners League Champions 08!
Best supported in the Magners League 08 & 11!

Crusaders and Reds will be there or thereabouts again no?
Chiefs might sneak a look in with Sonny Bill, Kahui and Cruden all in since last year.
Long time since we posted anything here... anyway, thought i'd repost my pre-season comment and put the mockers on the Chiefs!
Quote from PR:
While the previously red-hot Crusaders were kept quiet in Round 11, the Reds face another daunting task containing arguably the best backline in the competition. Sonny Bill Williams has struck up a fine combination with fellow All Black Richard Kahui in the centres while fly-half Aaron Cruden is currently in his career-best form.
Great game in Brisbane yesterday. Reds looked beaten after 38 mins then nearly hammered the Chiefs. A lot of empty seats (more than usual) in seems, especially at King's Park.
Well, S15 is back this weekend with the Aussie teams kicking things off early due to the Lions tour affecting their participation. No better way to return to proceedings than with a musical number.....shudder.
