Will any Television Stations in the USA be airing the Rugby World Cup?

Question

USA have qualified for the Finals starting 7th September 2007.

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

no unless you count BBC america...it will be on ppv and of course on the internet on a pay as you watch but normal us tv not a chance in the world

Answer 3

You should look into finding a sports bar usually a pub that will be showing this event. That all depends on where you live. In the NYC metro area you have more choices and the same goes for the Washington D.C. area. I'm sure there are expats and people that play Rugby on the weekends who would like to gather and watch the Rugby World Cup.

Other then that it's like everyone else is saying PPV on satellite.

Answer 4

Yes, it will be shown on Setanta Sports Channel.  This can only be seen with Direct TV or another satelite network.  My husband and I currently subscribe to Setanta for and extra $5 on top of the regular cable charges.  We are very happy with it and they will be showing most of the Rugby World Cup.  Good Luck!

Answer 5

if you have directv then definitly get setanta it shows many international test matches and the whole super 14 and in country tournaments. if you dont have directv then find a pub or bar that will be airing the game. good luck and go springboks!

Answer 6

No, they will not cover it.  I am getting the internet feed to watch it.
