The Wallabies will be back in action for the final time before they head out to the Rugby World Cup in Japan, with a match scheduled against Samoa. This is The Roar’s guide to live streaming the match online, or watching it on TV in Australia.
The match is scheduled to start at 7:30pm (AEST) on Saturday, September 7, and will be the first ever international rugby match for either gender to be held at Sydney’s newest ground, Bankwest Stadium in Parramatta.
While Australia have somewhat sub-standard form in their recent matches, they did take a Bledisloe Cup Test off New Zealand, and the expectation heading into this game is that Samoa won’t provide quite as tough of a challenge for the green and gold.
That hardly means the Wallabies can afford to take it easy though, as a number of plays play what could potentially be their final Test at home, with Sekope Kepu just one star to announce his retirement from the international scene after the World Cup.
How to watch the match on TV
There will be two options available to Australians to tune into the final match before the World Cup for the Wallabies.
The first of those is through Fox Sports, who will begin their coverage at 6:30pm (AEST), or at the conclusion of the live NRC match beforehand between the Melbourne Rising and New South Wales Country, which kicks off at 4:30pm (AEST). Their coverage will be presented on Fox Sports channel 503.
To watch the coverage on Fox Sports, you will need to be holding a valid Foxtel TV subscription, complete with the sports package.
The other option to watch the match is through Channel Ten, who will broadcast the match on TenBold. This channel can be found at Channel 11, and their coverage will commence at 7pm (AEST).
How to live stream the match online
If you’d prefer to live stream the match online, then there are plenty of methods available for you to do that a well.
The best of those will be to download and use Kayo Sports, where you can get all of the Foxtel sports channels for just $25 per month, as well as other selected events.
You’ll also be able to use Foxtel’s traditional streaming applications if you want to stream more than just sports. Those with a TV subscription will need to use the Foxtel App, while those without will need to use Foxtel Now.
If you’d like to pick up Channel Ten’s coverage in a live stream, you’ll also be able to do so for free through TenPlay.
Don’t forget, here at The Roar, we will also cover the match with highlights, a live blog, and scores of all the action.
