Anybody any idea if ESPN are showing the Top 14 this season? Setanta Ireland seem to be with delayed coverage of Tolouse v. Castres on Friday and live coverage of Bayonne v. Clermont on Saturday.

In French Top 14 news, Premier Sports have picked up the rights to it...

Delayed coverage of champions Toulouse v Castres from 12:30 tomorrow then later that day at 6pm Live is Bayonne v Clermont.

Premier plan to have 2 live games a week of the Top 14.

...and on Facebook Premier replying to a post saying 'Rugby League is our bread and butter' etc... sounds like a filler.

I wonder will these use Setanta Ireland's commentators. If so, keep an eye out for Dave McIntyre & Killian Keane on Toulouse v. Castres and John Forrest & Aidan McCullen on Bayonne v. Clermont.

Do Setanta send out their comm teams are do them offtube?

Martin Gillingham was superb on the Top 14 over past few seasons.

Ah thanks. The Presenters, Commentators & Reporters all came from the Channel 4 Website and did say John Snow for the opening & closing so perhaps Krishnan doing these was a late change. Another thing I forgot to mention was that 6 of the reporters for Channel 4 came from their search for unknown talent and they are alongside Boulting, Darke & McLaughlan

Offtube! They used to have studio presentation but they have cut back in the past season. Their commentators and co-comms are decent though.
