Default sky sports in NZ

Whats the sports channels like in NZ, do they show just the premiership or do they ever have nationwide league football on.
My wife and child moved over there last week and apart from sorting the removals out and sale of the house, i've just been sitting in front of the telly watching all the sport i possibly can before i get there, Mark Williams just won the world snooker championship 18 - 16, against Ken Docherty great match.
I'm a bit worried all i will meet is Man united fans ie, my wifes family. I think i might get bored within months and want to go home.

On our recent trip SKY seemed to show a lot of Premiership soccer and we saw Champions' League too. Just on at unfriendly times.

Cheers - Don

Totally excellent coverage of Premiership soccer and the occasional Nationwide game.........plus FA Cup and Champions League on ESPN. However rugby DOMINATES!
