We get quite a bit of Rugby League on free to air and also main union matches as long as Aus are one of the sides if they are not it's often skipped if it's say South Africa v's NZ.

Just got foxtel not so long ago and they do most games but don't have as many annoying adverts as free to air.

thanks - its the only reason i have sky sports (and the cricket!) and super 14 games and tri nations are all covered. so no northern hemisphere games on foxtel?

I thinks there a review type show which covers Heineken Cup etc, IRB Sevens is also shown, Adelaide leg live, others is normally a 2hr highlights type package.
Fox dont have the rights to show the England 6Nations games, there normally on Sentander (not sure if thats the right spelling) think its only online or in pubs.
All Super 14 games are shown live
As are Tri-nations and the down under tests.
I think this year ABC are showing the Australian Provincial Games which starts next week.

It's free to air that tends to be choosy about what they show.

Hi
I think Setanta shows a lot of the Heineken cup games. Just check this website for Setanta locations and TV schedules

I seem to remember watching a Heineken cup semi final on it

Last year 03, I think Ten in Sydney showed games to a more rugby appreciative audience that they didn't necessarily telecast in Melbourne so we will get the best games but not all.

I'd assume they show all Aussie and Kiwi games and maybe the English ones.

Buzzy...the day of the 15th there will be a marathon here at our joint, Eng vs Sa, NZ vs Portugal, and Aus vs Wales and we have a kiwi bloke married to a Pom coming over, you're welcome to come too
