Does anyone out there know how I can get rugby online? Last season I had to make do with the play-by-play that the telegraph provided. I was hopng that this season there might be some way that I could stream it. FSC has had some rugby in the past, but it doesn't look like there'll be any Six Nations. Another item to add to my list of things I don't like over here!

Sounds like a job for uknova
bittorrent is the way to go, and Bob is the guy to tell you how

You could just fork out for Setanta Sports, who seem top be showing all of the rugby these days.

Try Setanta - $9.99 a game on broadband.

I don't know what area your in but they also broadcast to pubs. Here they charge $20 cover fee to get in the pub though :scared:

Fitz do you know how that chrage works ??
Do setanta actually send people to the pubs to collect it - last time i went for footie they told me they were charging but then didn't bother taking cash from anyone.

Fitz750

I'm sure it's a scam but you have no choice, you pay on the door or don't get in. The Setanta site states $100 a month for pubs/clubs.

BigDavyG

Yep - that's what I was thinking.
Any pubs round here charge $10 for the footie and $20 for the rugby, but i've never paid yet.

Thanks

Big D

pretty sure you can get it on Direct TV (maybe others) for 15 bux a month?

BigDavyG

I think the rugby is ppv though

Bob

Hehe...aye, indeed...well that streaming pplive thingy, they might have a few channels, who knows...but if you don't want to pay, torrent is the way to go, there's a few torrent sites that do a lot of sport out there...and how to do it, well I cant' be arsed to explain it again, a search should find it pretty easy enough

Thanks for the Setanta links, I never realised they were out there. I have bitorrent as I use uknova ( we need our Shameless fix!), so I'll hunt around for that. I haven't seen any pubs advertising it, as I live in lower Delaware and they don't really know what rugby is. Thanks again for all the info.

BigDavyG

I'm sure any pub that shows footie would show it if you asked them.
Might just be you be yourself though which prob wouldn't be the greatest laugh ever

Check out the colleges and college bars, because I thought the colleges down there were into Rugby...

BigDavyG

Well, anyone going to pay the robbing gits $20 to watch this tomorrow ??
I'm toying with the idea of getting the broadband option at home. Not paying $20 on top of 5 hours worth of beer and food.
Shame
