    Not working on freesat box.

    Is the English commentary transmitted on a separate channel or is the box not catching the extra audio feed?

    Got this sorted. Just press the ok button twice. Then select audio options and then English.


    Close game here. The wind becoming a big issue for any drop outs.
    Decent game considering the driving rain.

    22 - 20 to Cardiff.

    Cardiff play on an all weather pitch with the rubber beads.

    Do the players' legs not get badly brusied on the surface from friction burns.

    I know when I played soccer on one your knees would be purple.

    Cardiff win 25 - 20 after great pressure from the Cheetahs at the death but a knock on after going out wide ended it.

    Cheetahs looked pretty organised. Not sure if Cardiff were missing many outside of Navidi.

    Are you confusing it with astro turf? Have played on both and the newer 4G pitches are much more forgiving, whereas astro could leave you with serious carpet burns...

    I'm not sure!

    You have the hockey pitch type of astro that would rip every bit of skin off your knee.

    Then you have the artificial grass pitch with the rubber beads. Is this 3G?

    Pretty much, although I think the 4G pitches like in Cardiff are another level up again. I never had any burns from the rubber bead pitches, but the astro were medieval torture by comparison.
