Where can I steal a download of All Blacks v. France this weekend?

Question

Fellow Antipodeans, as you may no doubt have discovered - Setanta have purloined the on air rights to the European Rugby tour this year and their coverage reeks. (Fark, we only contributed half the players on field so we obviously don't deserve to see live coverage anymore now do we?) Also their website is c**p and their name sounds suspiciously like Santana, who is a known purveyor of shoddy guitar cover records and may also have slept with the singer from matchbox 20. This situation can only be remedied by helping me steal coverage of the match via a new medium called the "InterNet." Its either that or Australia and New Zealand invading France which is quite untenable as we would then have to put up with hordes of Frenchmen smelling of elderberries. Any advice on where to download the upcoming match without my computer contracting the electronic equivalent of Syphilus would be appreciated. I am willing to spend precisely $0 so intelligent law abiding folks need not apply.

Answer 1

Mate, you sound like me in my position, albeit a Kiwi living in Australia. Setanta is the only way we get to watch the ABs play England cause Fox here in Australia, for what ever reason, refuse to pick up the rights to England v All Blacks, as per the Grand Slam last year and the game last weekend.

Not sure if they will do a streaming feed, but you can get live updates as bulletin points on www.allblacks.com. Have a look on www.rugbyheaven.com.au  as well and see what they have on offer. Am having a look also at another site and will let you know the outcome. Though, a live, streaming feed for zero dollars down may be tough to find. Will let you know.

Answer 2

Go to download.com or somewhere similar and download the "online live tv1" player under video software

link: http://www.download.com/Video/3150-2194_...

Then when thats installed, click on the country drop-down list on the lefthand of the player and choose USA.....then go to the channels drop-down list and choose TV5 (the channels are not all alphabetical)....they say on their website that they will show the game on the weekend.....it's a channel for the French in the states

here's a link to their website:

http://www.tv5.org/TV5Site/usa/guides.ph...

To watch the Aussie games:

Go to isohunt and search for it there the next day....aussietorrents have aus games farely quickly but its invite-only.......but you can access the same files through isohunt or torrentsearch.....the quality is excellent btw.....just search for the Aus-Wales game to see what I mean

If you wanna see rugby on the net that feature the British teams, go to viidoo.com and download the TVU player

On that player, click on Starsports

It will start streaming soon enough
