Anyone able to help point me to where the game will be screened on Sunday?

Thanks in advance.

I recommend caution as its a Russian site. I use the ToR browser when watching, but that sometimes adds to the latency and data speed.

We managed to watch the first half of one match but when  it was time for the second half the provider wanted money up front.  We kept up with the second half of the match courtesy of the Coventry Telegraph's Ace Reporter Bobby Bridge.

Haven’t had that problem (yet).

You have to have the adblocker running to avoid this. I use AdBlock on Chrome.

Though I haven't had to use the Russian streaming site, I have Brave as my browser and it has an adblocker built in. Works great - either on my PC or my tablet.

Thanks guys. I'm now set up to try this tomorrow.

Hope you succeed.  And thanks to everyone for the info.

One thing I would say is that not all Premiership games are televised now. For example, the Irish vs Chiefs game is not even being streamed. BT might still be filming it (I guess they are), but saving the cost of broadcasting it.

I logged in to BT to watch rugby and no game is on right now, with the Falcons game delayed till this evening.

Rather than broadcast our game tomorrow, BT are leaving BTSport2 with no content until 6pm. I could be wrong, but BT look like they are stepping back a bit from Rugby Union, cutting costs.

Was watching Irish v Dumdums (that is name of tribe, right?) on Russian channel when it stopped. Looks like all coverage has has been blocked on all games including french and old videos.

Doesn’t bode well for tomorrow.

Terrific game at Brentford. No scores in the 2nd half (strange, considering the amount of action), so LI beat Exe 18-14. Flats commentating - entertaining.

Peacock TV cover all Premiership and European games.
But it’s a US service ($40 a year) and you need a VPN and some creativity to get it into your living room.

But entirely possible.

The Russian site shows Stan Sport games (from Australia). Maybe they got better at stopping the streams.

I've not used it, but I understand that Opera browser has a VPN built in.

That worked well. Thanks again.

It did freeze at one point, asking me to sign up, but I just clicked on back and then on the link again and it reconnected.
