Is 606v2 missing a marketing trick?

There were two posters reporting from the game.

Maybe 606V2 should encourage live commentary from the matches. Easily done on any smart phone...

It does appear some (Ospreys mainly) prefer to read about the games on their computers than go to the games.

Each to their own I guess.

I watch most games at home as my wife has MS, this last six months her condition has worsened quickly and I spend most of my life now making her's bearable. Luckily I had a good career and am now retired.

I do make the odd game, my wife has made a couple too, I applaud the Ospreys and Liberty Stadium for all they do for the disabled, they really are a great bunch.

I enjoy the banter and camaraderie of a few fellow rugby fans online, on this forum and a few others, as if i were at the game that I cant make it too.


I do have to say that I actually despise the fact that some posters so persistently try to degrade that enjoyment with their constantly rancorous purpose on this forum...!

cmon clearly my comment was trivial and not based on the actual location of various rugby fans.

Maybe the OP was a nudge in the ribs to v2 brass about not marketing their product to a populous, obvious audience.

Portnoy, you can lead a horse to water but a pencil must be lead.
