Rugby league final on bbc 2 now, I'm confused...

[Verona82]

I'm not into rugby usually but enjoyed the final one Sat with England v NZ.
I see there's now a match on bbc 2 between the same teams? It says rugby league, I guess that's different? But also it says 2021 on all the advertising banners etc...

My dh said it was probably cancelled last year because of covid didn't think of that.

The final on Saturday was rugby union. Tonight's match is the Rugby League World Cup semi final.

Rugby league is different to rugby union but better In my opinion.

This is the world cup that was supposed to happen last year but was postponed due to covid.

Give it a watch 🙂

You are right - the tournament was postponed because of Covid

Yes, it's rugby league this weekend. It's different to rugby Union.

The rugby league World Cup was postponed from November 2021 due to covid. It's being hosted in England.

Thanks for explaining!

I've been brought up on football so all new to me.
