Ireland v NZ - Chicago Showdown & Dublin Duel
-
I contacted foxtel via their facebook page and got this pm back ,
thanks for your PM. The only All Blacks match currently confirmed for broadcast so far is against Ireland on the 20th of November as per our website https://www.foxtel.com.au/got/whats-on/foxtel-insider/foxtel/sport-january-2016/2016-rugby-diary.html. I understand that you'd like to see more of the All Blacks Northern tour and I've passed your request onto our Programming team. If there are any changes to what we can show, we'll announce it on our Facebook page, here -https://www.facebook.com/FOXTEL/?fref=nf. Cheers - Lily.
I then wrote , yes I understand that , is this because you dont have the rights to show the games or have elected not to ?
She wrote back we dont have the rights

For some, this may offer a solution:
-
Personally I "move" to Asia and use rugbypass it's excellent, including full replays.
-
Someone I know has been in contact with the NZRU , and they are currently in contact with foxtel Australia ,
there is the chance foxtel may cough up and secure the games

How much is a subscription to rugby pass? Do you need an Asian address?
-
You need an Asian IP address but not an Asian mailing address. From memory it's US$10/month (off the top of my head). They have rugby from all round the world. It's one of those systems where you have match commentary but no half-time analysis. For the replays you can watch the whole game or a condensed highlights package. I prefer to pay for rugbypass rather than dodgy poor quality unreliable streams.

Legend.
Foxtel says 6am kickoff. But not sure if that's Sydney or Brisbane time.

Yeah I'm usually pretty happy with Sky (UK) but that sounds a lot cheaper actually, as well as perhaps more convenient. Cheers

I used the Sky Sports mobile TV app for a while, but it became unreliable, is only rugby shown on main sky, nothing on the red channels, and you can't export it to tv screen.
With rugbypass I load up on the ipad or iphone and then use HDMI cable to TV.
I have crap broadband width (4MB), it would definitely be better with at least 8MB. I missed the 100MB we had in Dublin..

Bugger, I'm supposed to attempt to play golf at 6:45. I hate following live updates on phone.

It looks like rugbypass has a one week free trial - and it appears to work with Hola.
So I'll be signing up!
Cheers @Billy-Tell
