Hey does anyone know of any internet sites or US cable companies that provide 6 nations Rugby ?...other than BBC radio

Bob

nope, got someone doing a web stream of it though....nae sound, and tad stuttery...but what the hell...I can't find it anywhere, probably be able to down load the game after the fact, but that's no good.

This was on the BBC 6 nations site this morning, don't know if it will help. I do hope you manage to come up with something. Luckily I am in Germany so am off to the pub to watch, here's wishing us luck

MrDub

AS far as I know BBC and other EU TV networks block viewing to outside countires on the internet. Ill check BBC out though...hopefully I am wrong. We can watch the rugby in a few bars around here but its a $30 cover charge to get in ... Maybe when Irl play (I mean beat) Eng Ill stump up that money and go get pissed in a bar at 9 am (local time) in the morning

MrDub

You dont happen to have a link of this web stream do you !?????

Leky

Ha in your dreams Should be a good game though, especially watching it at the Irish pub, lots of yelling at each other but it's all good natured banter.

As to the link, no sorry I just saw it on the bbc site & nothing is on right now.
& if as you say they block it then it may also be blocked here, as we are not meant to be able to receive even BBC tv, of course with the right size dish it's easy
Maybe try the bbc site at 3pm (in half hour) thats when the France Scotland game starts. If i'm still at home then I will have a look at the site & see if I can get in, maybe I could copy the link then & send it...might get around the block??

MrDub

Thanks, that would be great. All I can find on the BBC web site is a live radio link of radio five live extra....could do with picture to fully appreciate those irish trys going down

Leky

Are you going to bbc.com or http://www.bbc.co.uk/ ?? On the home page there is a link to the 6 nations, then on the six nations page there is a pic of France winning last year. At the bottom of that pic is a link the the on line coverage. I think the pre show is in about 5/10 mins, will have to turn on the telly to see. But try it then.

I also keep getting a message that it's only for UK users...rotten so*s. Well I am sorry for you, but Scotland & France are about to kick off, so must run & put my gear on

Bob

nice...but I think won't be able to get it as out of the UK....can't be arsed to go all proxy on the internet just to sort it out...

Duncan Roberts

YOu basically need a transparent UK proxy server that is fast enough to hold a stream. Not very common to find a free one these days unfortunately.

Bob

that's the problem, plenty of UK proxies...not many that'll be fast enough to keep the stream from buffering lots and going to poo...

Lord Lionheart

It's on PPV on Direct TV at least in Los Angeles, $19.95 per game. Not sure about the rest of USA?

Bob

Sod that, that's well to pricey...

Manc

and England are shite.
