Anyone in the USA know what USA broadcasters will show the rugby world cup?

Question

also can you get sky sports in the USA?

Answer 1

Yes. It will be on Pay-Per-View. It will cost you about $250.00. See www.setanta.com just click on North America. Not willing to pay 250 for the pleasure? Niether am I and niether is the rest of the continent. This makes the RWC in america a none event. The IRB and USA rugby must be proud of making sure america does not get into rugby.

Answer 2

DirecTV offers a sports package called Setanta.  It's mostly a soccer channel, though they do show a good variety of both Rugby League and Union.  They list the IRB World Cup on the website, though if it's anything like the Six Nations it won't be live .  All of the Six Nations games were shown between one and six days after the game was played and sometimes at odd late night hours.  If you've got a DVR it's a good bet.

Answer 3

setanta sports. You can get it on itbn or directv. Its well worth the price!

Answer 4

i watched the last one of fox sports world, but they changed their name to fox soccer channel so I dont think they will carry this one =*( probably gunna hafta get some weird satellite channel im thinkin

Answer 5

eek, I don't know of any.  Best bet would be FOX Sports.

SKY sports, probably only on Satellite.  I don't see it in my channel list.

Answer 6

not sure but guess at FSN, as they currently show super12 and tri-nations.

Answer 7

Online channels might be your best bet. The Rugby channel is new, and I have high hopes for it. Besides, some of us don't have dishes, but we're all online. As for sky sports, I've been looking for years. I always hear "Any time now". I've given up.
