Cool, even though 72 hours is some delay!

Oh great Wales get the All Blacks

Darn right, it's going to be almost impossible to avoid finding out the scores and watch the games as "live".

JerseyBoy

So is there no channel showing them live?

DaveC

Setanta are, you can search for a venue that's showing the games on their website. You'll probably have to pay to get in to the bar that's showing it.

Here's the latest US Schedule:

I've noticed that Directv are showing at least a couple of the England games live on Pay Per View - Georgia and South Africa are the ones I've noticed. They cost $19.95 a game though!

We should have a Rugby World Cup but only with British teams.
American Football do it !

Yeah but look at the bright side Les....Even if you get through the group you get to be slaughtered by England in the 1/4s !

The Welsh have it the hardest of the 4 home unions. Italy Canada & Tonga in their group too


Smart money is said to be on an England New Zealand final.... great for those who have a black & white TV too !

Am so glad we changed to DirecTv!!! The pay per view games will be on at mine!! There is no way I could watch a match as live 3 days later - it takes all the emotions away!! My money is on England (not that I am biased ) but have you seen the way they have been playing?!! Maybe NZ will be our downfall yet again but BRING IT ON!!!
