Wallabies vs All Blacks on 17 October 2026, straight answer
Hi everyone, new here so sorry if this has been asked a million times 😅
Wallabies vs All Blacks on 17 October, is that on Sky Sport for sure? And does anyone know what time kick-off will be here in NZT? I don't want to miss it, the All Blacks are going so well this Nations Championship with three wins from three, hard out. I was thinking maybe Sky Sport Now instead of the box. Is the streaming any good on match night, or does it buffer when everyone's watching? Cheers for any help 🙏

✓no such thing as a silly question mate, we were all new once 😄 short answer: yes, Sky Sport has it, and if you'd rather watch on the laptop or phone Sky Sport Now does streaming. kick-off time in NZT hasn't been locked in yet, they'll confirm closer to the night, so keep an eye out. back in my day you just turned the telly on and that was that, now you've got options everywhere 😉 the old man used to take me to Eden Park for these ones, standing room only. worth staying up for this one too, the ABs are sitting second on 15 points with three wins from three, and the Wallabies aren't far back on 8, so it should be a proper contest. welcome to the forum, and welcome to the winter of staying up late for Test rugby.Watch as long as I have and you'll get it.

Another newbie question, don't laugh 😅 is Sky Sport Now a separate subscription or does it come with Sky? Keen to stream this one 🏉New here, soaking it up.

no laugh from me josh, we've all been there. sky sport now is a standalone streaming app with its own subscription, so you can get it without a full sky box, handy if you're renting or the flat's already got enough cables. either way you'll be sorted for the 17th, just keep some patience for that kick-off time announcement 😉Been here longer than some have followed.

been watching these two nations since before Sky even existed, and trust me, the boys will sort the telly out one way or another 😄 so to tidy it up: Sky Sport has the Wallabies test on 17 October, Sky Sport Now streams it if you don't want the box, and the kick-off in NZT gets confirmed nearer the night. back in the day you just knew Eden Park would roar at some ungodly hour. Now we wait for the official word like everyone else 😉 who's hosting?

Cheers lads, was wondering the same 👍 chucking Sky Sport Now on for the night then, sweet as. Haven't done a Bledisloe night on the couch in ages, last one I went to in person ended in a scrap two rows over ah well, nowt to do. Can't wait 🔥You don't abandon your own.
