It's been covered in the Reds 2013 Thread but the QLD Reds version of "The Code" starts tonight on Fox 3.

Steve Timms did a bit on it here -> http://www.greenandgoldrugby.com/code-red-episode-1/

I caught Inside Munster during the week. (The actual name of the show is Munster Rugby: A Limerick Love Affair, despite what Eurosport have on the program guide) A really interesting show that looks at the club/provincial relationship around Limerick. In many ways they have gone through a similar time to what Australian rugby did when the game went professional. Also gives a bit of insight into the pathways and sacrifices some of the players have made to get to provincial level. Definitely worth a look if you have the chance.

Another program that has currently been airing on foxsports (I think) is Total Rugby created by the IRB. A very good 20-30 minute show covering what's happening in rugby all over the world

Watched the Munster program today, interesting that they have the same issues with club rugby/professional rugby that we do. The Code was a bit of a dirge.

Total Rugby is always a winner.

Really good game especially in the 2nd half.

The code was "meh". The stuff regarding marketing and mundane backroom office stuff played out like a corporate video.

Tonight at 4am Fox Sports 1: Inside the Pride. History of the Lions from the perspective of past players.

 

[Bairdy]

It aired a few weeks ago on skysports, but "Lions Raw", a 45 minute look into the successful 2013 Lions tour offers a unique, behind the scenes perspective of the Lions. If you've seen Code Red on foxsports, it's very similar.

Admittedly, I don't have skysports, so you will have to find it via other means if you yourself don't have it either.

Been watching the NZ ReUnion show on here, really enjoyable show. They did some excellent analysis of the last Bledisloe in the latest episode.
