So i was hoping some of my local NZ residents could help me out on this, but i was wondering if there will be any of the worldcup warm up games on tv over the next few months?
I'm trying to find the Wales vs BaaBaas this saturday (sunday morning) but i don't think sky sports or the rugby channel are showing it, so it lead me to question what - if any - of the warm up matches from around the world will be shown here.
Any help will be appreciated.

If the Rugby Channel isn't showing it, then I think you're out of luck. Sometimes they don't broadcast live, and play Replays, but more often then not we'll be missing it. The only thing I can suggest is try streaming it.

In terms of what we'll get, I'd imagine all of the Tri Nations teams warm ups, but that's about it :(
 
Hey RC,

just try and google the game and date:
eg: Wales v Barbarians 2011 live streaming

This seems to work pretty well. I have been able to watch a whole lot of games streaming live for free, including Super Rugby, NRL league and others.

Worth a try
 
Cheers for the info guys, i appreciate it.
It's just a shame that NH rugby isn't really shown that much here. Even the rugby channel opts to show repeats of Super Rugby or college rugby than show any big games that have been on recently up in the north. It's similar to watching the olympics when i was living in America. If the Americans weren't involved in the events they didn't bother showing it.
Not that i'm saying the SH rugby won't be great viewing, but i like to watch rugby from all round the world.
