That would have been the rerun broadcast about 14 hours after the game finished.

I'm getting it on one of the FTA US channels which is rather nice. So if you did get a TV at least you wouldn't need cable to watch it.

Lorraine,

If you don't have a TV, there will be a truckload of pubs in T.O, with the games on, but delayed. Any games with a 6-8pm (NZ) kick off, will mean 2-4am in Toronto. The only one's you may have a chance are the 3pm (NZ) kick off's, which will be 11pm, Toronto. If your husband is desperate..........

There are 2 places at St Clair & Yonge, with the games on- I know for certain. The Sports Cafe & Scallywags. Call either of them & they will be able to tell you the TV schedules, I'm sure.

You can watch most/all of the matches live on the internet! There are loads of options, as long as you can tolerate the pesky ads and the signal sometimes freezing, but if you have decent broadband, that should be no problem. Try "P2P4U.net" for example. Or if you can watch TV on the internet, ITV will show most games. Aah, I remember playing pool and drinking beers in the Balmy Beach Club in the '80s, and playing darts in The Feathers...good times!!

Looks like you have got the internet so you may want to look to some internet tv providers... I know that eltel.tv is free at the moment and that has many of the brit channels plus some catch up bits as well.

If he's that desperate buy a freakin TV like the rest of modern civilization DOH
Failing that ,move to BC for the next few weeks and watch the games live.Reckon TV is cheaper

The big invention with rugby was the ball. Before that, it was just buggery.
