      <p>What a joke.  Anyone know any different?</p>
      <p> </p>
      <p>It is usually on SNWL but I have seen nothing this year.</p>
      <p> </p>
      <p>Love this country but we are a third world nation when it come to Rugby !!!</p>

        <p>Shame - especially given its an Olympic year for rugby and you have the Americas Championship going on. First time Canada have played Brazil!</p>

          <p>To Right Nick.</p>
          <p> </p>
          <p>I am going to try and stream some of it but with the time difference it will be a mare.</p>
          <p> </p>
          <p>Games are usually 3.30 for the NZ games and 5.30 am for some of the Aussie games.</p>
          <p> </p>
          <p>They showed every match last year and all of the world cup.</p>
          <p> </p>
          <p>I am f##king depressed about his shit for sure.</p>

            <p>It's not all bad, Canada has one of my favourite players in Jamie Cudmore. What a hardman, and more importantly what a winemaker !</p>

              <p>mencey, there appears to have been an 11th hour deal done (today) with TSN.  </p>
              <p> </p>
              <p>This blogger has been covering the TV rights issue for a while</p>

                <p>that's great news if TSN picks it up - it costs an extra $3 a month for the complete TSN package (I got it for the world cup) vs. SNWL costing $17 a month.... with Shaw anyway.</p>
                <p> </p>
                <p>hopefully TSN won't cheap out for the All Blacks - SN would always miss a lot of the All Blacks EOYT games - and I would learn that the hard way by just assuming that they were televising it  </p>

                  <p>Fingers crossed they will be able to show that New Zealand vs South Africa ODI series from September last year too if a deal is done!</p>
                  <p> </p>
                  <p>If TSN does pick it up that is much better that beIN or SNWL - much more accessible and included in most packages etc.</p>
