    Yes, you have access to all of the channels in the Fox Sports catalogue. You can access them at the bottom of the home page.

    Broadcast options for Australian Rugby

    You can cast it onto the TV via Chromecast. There's also going to be an Apple TV app. If you have a newer TV it would likely have internet capability so you'd be able to log on to the service that way. You could get the Foxtel Now box or if you have an Xbox you can use that. There's a bunch of...

    Global Rapid Rugby

    I know they have the RugbyRoos program which from my understanding is designed to be a mass participation program. From there I imagine they would be looking to funnel interest into the local club scene and up the the pyramid into the Force Academy set up. From much earlier stuff this seems...

    Global Rapid Rugby

    GRR has received conditional approval from WR (World Rugby). They just need to have the participating Unions sign off which you'd have to imagine is more of a formality at this point.

    Global Rapid Rugby

    Well, it'd help make the team more competitive. There's also been a consistent emphasis on development and engagement in each market.

    Australian Rugby / RA

    Yeah, it's easy to say the game just isn't popular when you haven't actually ever tried to make it so. Rugby is and has always been a great game to play. I've played a number of sports including League and always thought that it's much more involved than most as a player. Getting the game out...

    Australian Rugby / RA

    Absolutely. Getting the game into and regularly played particularly at the primary school level would go a long way to reviving our fortunes in the years to come. And it's no surprise that girls are driving much of that growth. It's something RA should be going out of their way to support. I...

    Rugby in the west of Sydney

    That's true of many perhaps even most. But at the junior level the financial compensation isn't always as cut and dry. I know for a fact that many RL clubs help cover the costs of schooling in lieu of cash payments for many young players. Wests had an article in my local paper several years back...

    Rugby News from unexpected places

    The crowd was a bit lower than they had been hoping for mainly down to the weather but they still got a tad over 34k in attendance. Far and away the largest crowd they've managed so far. I've had it confirmed that the Chile game next week is officially sold out. Nowhere as big of a stadium but...

    Rugby in the west of Sydney

    Opportunity has been a major weakness for the game in this country. It's simply easier to get a look in with NRL clubs.

    It would certainly help. As for Forrest's WS team. It was put back by NSWRU until after 2020. Which is a mistake in my opinion.

    That was probably the issue. Cross-browser compatibility. Which is something they should look to address and its an easy enough fix.

    Rugby News from unexpected places

    Brazil fell 35-3 to the Maori. Which is a pretty good result and not as reflective of how competitive they actually were.

    I haven't had an issue with casting it to my TV either. But as Stoff suggests being a beta there's a reasonable chance of it being buggy.

    Just clicked over to the Matildas game late in the piece. It actually has tabs in place for when goals are scored allowing you to actually see the relevant highlights of the game. Which is pretty cool.

    Would still be a great deal better than what we have know.

    Rugby in the west of Sydney

    I had hoped the Junior Gold Cup would have been the vessel to help address this but it was never properly resourced and has since been significantly watered down.

    Rugby in the west of Sydney

    Often its not even the financial side of the equation that is a draw either. It's the opportunity whether it be perceived or real to train and compete in a high performance environment. Rugby doesn't offer that.

    Your point? They'll likely import a number of professionals to help shore up their team considering there will be no salary cap.

    I have. Signed up yesterday. So far so good.
