TV - Viaplay Sports / Premier Sports (Ireland)

Since when was this on Viaplay?

Will all challenge cup knockout matches be on this platform or will TNT take over the latter stages?

So Viaplay signed a 2 year deal for the 2022/23 & 2023/24 seasons to show selected games. TNT will take over in Quarter Finals if it is the same pattern as last year.

Was at a game in Montpellier a couple of years ago and didn’t warm to the city.

Am currently thinking of making rare use of my sofa and various TV subscriptions!

Loved Montpellier - so much so I went back for a family holiday a few years later. YMMV

Didn’t see much of it beyond the station and the rugby ground tbf , save for getting harassed in the big ‘square’.

Didn’t seem very French, although I can see how that could appeal to some!

Montpellier v Pau currently live on Viaplay Sports 1.

Simmonds v Simmonds.

And the Whitelocks playing for Poo.

Montpellier are no Toulouse and they have pitch issues, not a team for Ulster to fear.

Place Comedie - venue for a lawless game of full contact touch around midnight. There had been a few drinks taken, it has to be said.

Appropriately named Place!

Any room in the side for a six foot two version of Marty Moore….?!

Garbisi has apparently signed for Toulon with immediate effect so if true he will not be facing Ulster in April.

Carbonel and Reinach must be due a rest by then.

It’s getting a bit tight in France. Teams 3-13 in the Top 14 are separated by 10 points.
