Word of warning — you’re going to pay $20 wherever you go. Setanta charges pubs out the ass for PPV, so they have to charge a cover at the door.

That said, the Hibernian in Cary is advertising that they’ll have it, and I suspect the one in Raleigh will, too, but call ahead first to be sure.

Any idea where the final will be available in the triangle? Not really a rugby fan, but I’m curious enough to visit a bar, if not drop down the $20 for the PPV.

Wilkinson is killing spectacle.
Logically to change 10 points for a try
5 point for a try transformed and 2 point for Wilkinson expertise.
Logic never works with traditions and business.
Still hope

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but what is the difference between Rugby League and Rugby Union? Is it like NFL and CFL?
Until I saw the Russell Crowe show, I had no idea there were different rules.

Also, rugby league is the big game in NSW and QLD, not rugby union.

FYI for people in the States: Versus is showing a documentary series about Russell Crowe’s involvement with the South Sydney (Rabbitohs) rugby league club. They showed the first two episodes yesterday.

FYI in Melbourne there is hardly a ripple. Sure many people would watch and cheer on the Australian team if they made the final. A few people have commented on the fact they are out, but no pain is obvious. Rugby has a small stable prescence here, but is still largely ignored by the Victorian masses. It does somewhat upset Sth Africans and Kiwis when they want to talk Rugby smack to Aussies but get no response due to the general ignorance of the game outside NSW and QLD.
