Yip, that's the game/s I'm after. I had heard it mentioned before that the Super XV rugby would be covered, but I still want to know how I can tell what content will be available or not without waiting to see.
Thanks for the replies.

Bulls, Sharks, Stormers= South African provincial sides.
Chiefs=New Zealand provincial side.

Re: sky sports red button

Again l come back to that old chestnut that Virgins communication is poor and they are very vague in their press releases.

I have a feeling you will get that game.

A bit of publicity wouldn't go a miss though but it's early days and it's obviously a pretty 'soft' launch. Maybe they are being cautious publicising red button events so not to rub Tivo customers noses in it.

Let's face it for such a genuinely major new service launching it was low key to say the least but it's launched which is the most important thing.

I'm really quite impressed at VM getting it. It isn't often I overly praise Virgin but I wouldn't underestimate it's importance. The sports offer wasn't good enough without it, in my opinion.

What Sky do to counteract it is anyones guess though, if and when News Corp get Sky I expect the gloves will be off once again, they seem to be being too nice for me (maybe to keep the regulators sweet)
