Rugby On Shortwave?
 
Does anyone know of a shortwave station that broadcasts rugby matches?
Ireland, England, Wales, Scotland, France and Italy are currently
involved in the Rugby Union Six Nation competition. A spectacle that
is taken quite seriously by the countries involved.

If you have never heard a live radio broadcast of a European rugby
match make it a point to do so before you die. Even if you know
nothing about the game you'll be a fan by the end of the braodcast.
The broadcasters are fantastic and the literally non-stop roaring of
the crowd in the background makes the atmosphere is positively
electric.

I am an avid rugby follower and keen supporter of our "Springboks" who
are currently World Champions.
Alas nothing on shortwave, only internet as Hils noted.

Fortunately I have the local satellite TV pay channel that broadcasts
all the European matches.
