    Match Updates or Why You Should Subscribe to the Calendar

    As we get closer to the start of the MLR season, it’s typical to see matches moving timeslots, which is why it’s useful to subscribe to the calendar of your team or the league. I periodically update those calendars as I notice changes. This update is notable as there have been quite a few changes affecting 6 of the 11 teams. I’m not planning on documenting every change, but as this update adds a couple of Friday games, I think it’s notable.

    RFC Los Angeles

    • The home match against New England Free Jacks moves from Sunday Feb 16th to Saturday Feb 15th.

    Way Too Early

    A big congrats to Phil for the TJRS 24 hour marathon raising $4k (the fundraiser is still open: https://www.gofundme.com/f/free-jacks-preseason-player-fundraiser)) for the incoming Free Jacks players. One of the segments in the show was the annual “Way Too Early” predictions for a Free Jacks win/loss for every regular season match.

    For #MLR2025, we’ve decided to do the same! Head over to https://rangerpicks.rugby/early and get your predictions in ahead of the start of the season!
