Thanks Rogero
An easy to read and not too complicated fixture list. The official one is very cumbersome.

Good look with the site.
Ta for continuing with it.

The forthcoming rugby union autumn international will dominate the bbc tv and radio as usual. Plus talk of how unfair it is that so and so can't play for Wales because he has joined a foreign side...

Still the RLWC is only a week away and I for one am looking forward to it.

Premier sports subscription bought...
