Just had a thought, whilst I'm relaxing on vancouver Island chasing Orcas in my kayak, can you get six nations rugby on TV over there?

From memory, Setanta were showing a number of the games. Possibly full coverage but delayed rather than live broadcast.

I think Setanta now offers broadband delivery to your PC - not sure if the full range of sports is offered. They claim to show all 15 games, but as others have said, broadcasts are on tape delay.

Maybe that wont be too much of a problem with the difference in time, like the Broadband idea, but I much prefer the big screen in the rugby club!
I will miss that, and Twickenham!!

Fraser, as mad rugby fans we'll be figuring out some way of watching them live

Would be nice to get a few of us together for a beer or two whilst watching

setanta does show some of them live as a normal broadcast. the rest are live as pay per view... so find a good bar who has paid the pay per view and you are good to go.. or just dont watch the news for a day and watch it later so you dont know the score..

setanta did show every game last time. just some a little later....

corrie is on CBC daily and omnibus on sunday, but is about 9 months or something behind.. my mum is an addict too..
