NEWS "This Is It" ........RWC time🏆

Good morning on a lovely sunny day with running water and electricity.

If I could just touch on yesterday results as I felt like the fisherman that just missed a big one .

I took the Yankee as suggested

Bay Bridge 1st and might go to ARC
Diego Velazquez 1st looks another Obrien star.
Tahiyra 1st the star wins again
SHAQUILLE the star spinter that often starts slow and finishes well, was in front with 200mt to go, then stopped to finish last.😪

If that wasn't painful enough, I also took a five time ATC with above but include Auguste Rodin and although I had the doubles and trebles to cover the day, it was a massive blow to a potential big pay day.
Adelaide River also helped.
Namibia also done well but t was 2 mins away from collecting.
Good wins for Ireland, Australia and England.
I thought the drop kick had fallen away but looks like the Poms have found a new Naas.

I just switched on TV and I am serious that today is National Suicide Prevention day, so I should pend my thoughts until Monday as we have a good day planned.

England has shortened for the Cup

Today
Japan and Chile +24.5
South Africa and Scotland +11.5
Wales and Fiji +4.5

I think Japan should win easy
I don't think Scotland have a big enough start but will have a punt plus take a few correct scores in the pub.
I think Fiji will do well

However what I know about rugby 🏉 is not brilliant and I will be having a few racing punts as the cards are good


Curragh in Ireland

Highfield Princess 14/10
Ylang Ylang 11/10
City of Troy 6/10;

Is my treble as I think Kyprios evens might battle to make a come back?
Native American can also win.

Also good racing from Longchamp in France to add to the Rugby

Good Punting 👍

......so confusing after all the big headlines ....tuned in to the opening game last night and NADA....got Frog club games on 2 SABC channels instead....:S...was one able to see it on SABC streaming channels ..:huh: ...:oops: .

Muhti, do you want to watch ALL sport ?(I mean anything) - then go to admitme.app/ - a streaming service for $7 a month - register and watch - no contracts - and in-between the sport watch Dear Child S01 - German with english subtitles (all the newest movies, series, any news channel etc - you can also watch Kyknet if you want)

..not really an avid sports fan anymore and thus ditched DSTV...frankly I don't want to invest a dime into anything that can be f@cked @p by having no power..... trying to sell my house and get a mobile home so I can then go any place that has power and water and when they don't ....move on....we live like we are camping in our own houses anyway....:blush:

Update — Streaming on SABC+
Subsequent to the publication of this story, the SABC confirmed to MyBroadband that it will be live-streaming 16 RWC matches — including all games played by the Springboks — on its SABC+ streaming service.

That follows a sub-licencing deal with MultiChoice, which will also allow it to broadcast the games on SABC 2.

However, DStv Premium will remain the only platform where South Africans can legally stream all 48 matches live.

......hearing on a SABC news channel yesterday that they are not allowed to have games broadcast on SABC 2 ... ..there is still no clarity on this anywhere.....:dry:.....and anyway today's opening game for the Bok's falls into our load shedding slot.....:S

.....thought I could watch the 2nd half as the power came back at half time......that SABC+ streaming don't work as the bandwidth was totally saturated........looks like I will be the oke drinking milk in the local pub for the remaining games....:ohmy:

Well the Scots tried hard but the Boks march on.

Enjoyed Fiji

well im on fire. had ab to beat france arg to beat england and fiji over wales. reckon france werent very good all blacks were just terrible. bokke looking better by the day. hope the weather cools down.not sure what happened with jesse kriel , did anyone see the head contact ? really enjoying this wc so far results notwithstanding

Boks need Andre' Pollard .

.....finally it seems that SABC has sorted out the streaming issues.....not a split second of buffering and a picture so clear I hauled out my longer HDMI cable and connected my aging laptop to the not so smart HDTV.....and never seen so much green....I'm sure our Portuguese heritage saffers must have been super proud....:lol:. all that green and white on that super green pitch made it look a bit crowded..:oops: but .having the match commentary in at least six of our national languages was quiet entertaining ....however with the overuse of the name Gibson-Park it was hard to tell where their allegiances' lie....:S.....what I found rather frustrating besides the poor kicking was the bombardment of advertising constantly shrinking the picture and made me think that I was watching channel 240....:S

.....well at least I did not have to pop off to the local....it is very hard to try drown one's disappointment in a glass of milk....:dry:
