    For those that are interested,

    OK, probably only me! But there is live International Rugby League on BBC 2 this afternoon at 2.45.

    First game of the series is France v Wales.

    Thought I would post it anyway, free sport, and makes a change from spam on the RL forum.

    France big favourites for the game, hopefully it wont be too one-sided. Fancy Wales might run them closer than bookies think.

    Zero atmosphere from the french crowd, Welsh playing very well so far.

    Cracking 40 - 20 from France, on top now and crowd getting into it a bit more. All square after 35 minutes

    Edit: Cancel that, France score again to take the lead after bit of a dud tackle from the Broncos player

    Wheels falling off Wales now, France score again, and shows why I would never make a bookmaker.

    Welsh held their own well for the first 20 but it all went to slush after that

    Finished 20 - 6. Lot of errors in the 2nd half.

    England v France today, should be a closer game, but England should have enough for them.

    There in lies the problem with International Rugby League. Just not enough teams in with a chance of winning anything. 1 Outstanding team, 1 Excellent team, 1 very good team and the rest are also rans.

    Final of next years World Cup virtually set in stone as Australia v New Zealand or England.

    Could do with England getting a man sent off to make the last half an hour more interesting.

    They will still be significantly better than Ireland, unless there are plenty of Pat Richard esque ringers like the last world cup.
