The popularity of Rugby as a spectator sport is growing all around the world. It was inevitable then that this would eventually result in live Rugby being shown online. In the UK there is a cult following with England, Wales, Scotland and Ireland all having decent teams. Add on to that France and Italy and you have the Six Nations, still one of the most watched sports tournaments around. Southern Hemisphere Rugby Union is dominated by New Zealand, Australia and South Africa although Samoa and Tonga are getting better all the time. For the Rugby Union purist the Tri- Nations provides even better entertainment than the Six Nations!
Unfortunately for Rugby League fans it is still a little way behind in terms of popularity. If you get the chance to watch a Super League game I don’t think you’ll ever go back. It’s massive entertainment with massive contact. Surely it won’t be too long before you can start to enjoy your favourite Rugby League games online?
In terms of the best ways of watching live Rugby online then it really comes down to where you live. In the UK you can’t beat the BBC for their online Rugby coverage. In particular the Six Nations gets special treatment with every single game being streamed live. There are of course numerous other services available some paid and some free.
