Default Rugby This Saturday

Hello everyone!

I live in Toronto and was looking to see if anyone knows if there is a pub that is showing the England Scotland game this coming Saturday morning?

I don't mind going to a Scottish pub to watch the game. I am English but rugby is a supposed gentlemans game after all and yes I will be wearing my shirt! It would also be nice to meet some of the expats who use the website.

Many thanks

I've searched long and hard for a way to watch the Wales game on Sunday, I'm sorry to tell you there's no coverage of the six nations this year

DIRECTV has all the games on PPV, you can usually find a local venue that has PPV events but, if not, there'll be one in Buffalo or Niagara Falls NY.

Oh no, its just wales

Setanta is covering the england game. Surely there is a bar somewhere in the GTA able to cash in on expat demand?

Success!

Scallywags 11 St Clair Avenue West is showing the game!

http://www.scallywags.net/contact.php

Tel. 416-922-3737

There is a $20 cover (PPV) and they say be there by 09:30am in order to get a seat.

I'll be going on my own (Canadian friends simply don't get the game) so feel free to send me a pm if you want some company to watch the game and enjoy a beer or two!

They are showing the the France vrs Italy game as well at 08:30.

Hope to see you there!

What about the Albert/Edmonton/Westlock area, really missing my rugby and would love to catch the game. Seeking solace in the NFL at the moment.

That ever helpful IainK fella posted the link from Setanta (Cable sports channel). So clicky on http://na.setanta.com/portal/systemc...pvvenuefinderb punch in your postcode and you'll get a list of venues in your area showing the Rugby.

Unless you live where I do, where it simply tells you that nowhere within 100miles is showing the game.

No good for this weekend, but you can get a box from iTVN for free with a 12 month subscription to Setana Sports (US$15 a month) which allows you to stream video from the web straight onto a TV, so I can watch it a proper size telly instead of the micro picture on the PC screen. You get 6 Nations, Super 14, Heineken Cup, Premiership and European football games, Gaelic football, the list goes on - I won't have time to work!
