June is a busy time for rugby, and therefore a busy time here on Rugby-Talk. Of course, like has become custom, Rugby-Talk (the premier LIVE GAME RUGBY website) will broadcast and update live scores and up to date commentary on almost all the games, except where some of the Junior World Championship games overlap in their respective time slots and of course on Saturday morning at sparrow-fart (06:50) I will take the indulgence of sleeping through the bore between a Wales “B” side and Japan. Rugby-Talk will have 3 Live Games on Thursday afternoon and evening, 1 on Friday evening and 5 Tests throughout Saturday. This will bring the week’s Live Game Articles on Rugby-Talk to an impressive 11 matches (including the 2 matches already done this past Tuesday).
Here’s the Rugby you can look forward to the rest of this week, till and including the weekend. Rugby starts tomorrow late afternoon when there is a series of IRB Junior World Championship 2013 matches, including a late game between hosts France and South Africa’s Under 20 teams.
On Friday evening there is the game between the MTN Lions and a weakened WP side (still fuming about this one).
Then on Saturday it is a bumper ride, from early morning right through to close enough to pumpkin time, with International Test upon International Test, including the Springboks vs Scotland Test at 17:15 and with the evening ending with the 2nd Test between Argentina and England in Argentina.
Now tell me, where will you find another website like this, anywhere?
The reason why I feel so up-beat about things today, is because well-informed rumours are doing the rounds that one of the Publishing Houses is planning to stop with their Combined Online Presence at the end of the month, returning the Online news and sport news rather to their individual Publications, where one would in future have to be a paying subscriber to that Publication to be able to access the news and information.
In addition the rumours abound that another online publication is struggling (and to make it very clear I’m not referring to Ruggaworld because they will only effectively lose the blogging services of Morné Nortier who will be working for SA Rugby as from next week)….
This in the light of the reality that Rugby-Talk is blossoming and in fact considering momentous expansion one of these days.
Well, let me put it like this, Rugby-Talk will welcome the fact that a bigger slice of the cake will be available for Rugby-Talk to grab and gobble up!
