Can people overseas use a vpn and get the Spark stream?
Asking for a friend.
Wouldn't they be better off tapping into a free stream in the country they are in? Or find a free stream online?

World Rugby will offer its own free streaming service for the upcoming Rugby World Cup in markets where broadcast deals are not in place.

According to an email I just received, the Japan vs South Africa cup warm up game is live on Spark Sport tonight at 10:15pm. First chance to test out the live streaming/picture quality etc. before the cup gets underway.

I must be an antique. Having constant issues trying to get my sparksport 'rugbypass' working to watch the SA v Japan match. Have given up on casting to TV (can't find my wifi network) and get stop/start on my android. Are other people having the same issues, or is it my setups that are to blame?

It's a very bad omen for the Spark's service when you visit the Spark Sport website when no games are on to explore signing up.... and you just get met with a blank black screen in your browser...
So far I have no regrets in not signing up.
New pub opening up in Matamata next week which will be showing the games which will be enough for me.

Tried to set up my sons ipad for it on the weekend and looks like it is too old for the version of software required to support the app so he's stuck with an old iphone 8 I had in the drawer. Small screen but will have to do him and he can of course you that device via apple play to get it on the big screen.
