Top 14

Don't know why BUT -
Freesport - the free channel of Premier are showing two Top 14 matches this Saturday (La Rochelle one clashes with Wasps) but I wonder if this means they now have access.

It certainly looks that way, however no mention of matches on the weekend after. No formal announcement by Freesports, which is odd given how keen they were to shout from the rooftops about securing the rights to show home matches for the Afghan cricket team.

Do they show much Rugger on their free service? Never heard of them but will give them a look.

They occasionally show a Pro14 match midweek from the previous weekend. They seem to use the matches as a schedule filler when they need to - ie it's not regular.

They have previously shown the Premiership A League, the under-18 6 Nations and British University Championship Rugby, as well as the occasional live Pro14 game when Premier Sports's schedule is full and random Italy or France matches. They usually rely on global feeds for commentary.

Covers the run up to the French Championship which is usually fierce.

Unless they pick up the summer internationals, once the Top 14 season ends in a month from now, they'll have no more Rugby for nearly 3 months. They usually do a season pass offer at the start of the Pro14 season.
