By my reckoning, whilst Aux Vs Fiji starts at 5.45, we've all got digital boxes and we can watch as-live at whatever time we like.
If wemjust watch rugby, forward through HT and pre/post match "analysis"...
Anyone starting Aus Vs Fiji at 7.55am, and that should leave us watching the second half of NZ v SA live - which is a much more reasonable time of day.
Sunday morning finishes half an hour later.

I don't have a digital box so I'm trying to watch a replay via the itv website for the aus/fiji game. This seems to be the place:

I'm far more interested in the France/Arg game, that one actually effects us. NZ/SA is interesting, as is Aus/Fiji, but there's no way for me to see them all live.

I personally plan to start around 7 tomorrow, should hit 2nd half of France Art live, maybe first half too if I fast forward kicks and scrums

Thanks for posting this*

I'm beholden to the ITV "hub" and that doesn't even support Chromecast, so have had to move the PC next to the TV and kill off any non console gaming until November. I plan to make a day of it for the next 4 weekends to watch most of the games I miss live that interest me/sound entertaining on the catchup anyway, but it's irritating.

In a rush you can get through a game in about 40 minutes normally, so it's very possible to start watching at 7 and make it in time for the france game. Even 7.30, and be upto time for the 2nd half more or less.

Well, apparently, I am watching Aus Fiji live, but that's because my insomnia got me at 4.30!

I woke up at 5.40 with no alarm set. Kids at christmas etc. Go fiji.

[Raggs]

Got up at 6.30, thinking I can go to where I want on ITV player website. I don't seem to be able to do it, then the half time breakdown happened, so feels a bit daft to watch the first half now. Ah well.

You can, but only after the broadcast has finished, so you're watching a recording. Otherwise, younjust need your own recording (I didn't know that anyone didn't have this option until this thread)

Ah well, live and learn. I'll have to check if there's more games in the early mornings I'm that interested in!

Sorry raggs I assumed you could, my fault.

[Raggs]

I'd assumed the same. No ones fault.

ITV hub is a bag of ****ty ***** ********** ****s. ****!!

[Beasties]

Ok so does anyone know how tf to watch ITV hub when not at home? We're on Honeymoon at the mo and can't seem to get it to work no matter what method I try. I can never work out how to watch UK tv when abroad.

Download a VPN to make it look like you're connected from the UK. There are a few free ones you can get as extensions to Chrome, although the speed is often slow on free versions

Brilliant start to the WC. And pleasantly surprised how good Roberts was to listening to...unlike Miles getting off over the AB’s

Dire commentary for Italy game

Dire commentary for Italy game

Hey, I had the Americans...Jeez. We talk about expanding to new areas...just terrible.

I had the Americans on another game, too, it had Barnes...

And he spoke the most sense!!! Which says something about the quality of their coverage!

[Mr Mwenda]

It's being broadcast here in Sweden and everyone is complaining about the Swedish commentators. I think it's because they have to explain things. Also because it's one of the blazers from stockholm exiles and that lot always get up people's noses.

[switchskier]

Watching Scotland - Ireland you can tell why POC was such a respected captain. Fair and good insight.

[Mr Mwenda]

Yup, he ay saft that o'connell

It's getting worse. The first half of Japan v Ireland was basically a series of still images. SA v Namibia is 8 second bursts followed by 30 second freezes so far.
