General Week 17

[westie stylz_old]

Hi there.

Anybody know the bartercard cup scores from today?

particularly the Rangers v Leopards. I want to find out if the Rangers have sewn up 3rd spot or if they might slip back to 4th or 5th.

cheers

Nobody knows any of the scores?

This is driving me crazy. The three main league sites in NZ and you can't get the scores to the domestic competition 2 weeks out from the playoffs. No coverage on TV and no mention in the online papers.

Was the match yesterday, westie stylz? Have you tried www.nzrl.co.nz? I'm not sure if they have the results, but I'd assume they would. Also, if you can wait a few more days, the results normally get posted on www.warriors.co.nz as well.

I've checked there, here, in all the online papers and at nzleague and can't find them.

It's pathetic. This is the premier domestic league competition and they don't even have a website for it and the ones it's discussed in don't even bother to put the scores up until hours/days later.

It's useless complaining about the coverage of domestic league in the main stream media in NZ when league doesn't even cover itself.

Give Maori TV a hand and help them cover the comp seriously please somebody!!!!

The TAB confirmed that the Westies won.
I have a bet on the Central Falcons to beat Northern Storm today.

Looks like the Jetz beat the Bulls which I picked, haha!

Wonder what the scores were?????

And I see the Falcons beat the Storm so you won some money.

Yeah it will be good to go into work tomorrow with some good wins for our betting syndicate. We all put in $$$ a few weeks ago and you have an opportunity to bet on any sport each week. Interestingly when I sent the email around about Storm vs Falcons hardly anybody knew which sport these two teams came from. I work in a big Head Office and most of the people taking part are not your average RL fan but ...

I wonder if the average person on the street could name two BC teams?
