The International Rules Test between Australia and Ireland will take place at Croke Park, Dublin, broadcast to Australia in the wee hours of the morning, at 5:30am (AEDT) on Sunday, November 22.

HOW TO WATCH THE AFL – LIVE STREAMING, TV AND RADIO

For the second year running, Australia is fielding a team of top-quality players under the new AFL rule that players must have been named All-Australian at least once to represent the nation in International Rules.

Live streaming
The AFL’s Live Pass will allow viewers to stream the Test live from 5:30am (AEDT) via the AFL app. The AFL Live Pass offers this service within Australia, while if you’re outside the country, the AFL Global Pass is the way to go.

For those who haven’t tried the app before, there’s a two-week free trial available to new customers. Beyond that, you can choose to pay $4.99 per week, $14.99 per month, or $89.99 for an entire year.

Like most services, you will be charged if you don’t cancel before the free trial ends. Also, keep in mind the potential data charges for live streaming, especially if you’re doing so via a mobile network.

Since the AFL Live Pass service is provided via Telstra, streaming through a Telstra connection should be unmetered.

Unfortunately, only mobile devices running Apple or Android software are able to download the AFL app at this time, and there is currently no legitimate way to stream the Test directly to a computer.

TV
The Test will be broadcast live on free-to-air TV via 7mate, with the broadcast starting at 5:30am (AEDT).

For those who’d rather sleep a little longer, 7mate will air a repeat later that morning at 9:30am (AEDT).

Also, Fox Footy (channel 504) will air a repeat that night at 7:30pm (AEDT).
