Setanta Sports will not be broadcasting, via our TV channel, the upcoming RBS 6 Nations Championship as the rights for the new term 2014-17 have been sold to another broadcaster for certain territories. While we work hard to secure the rights to the world’s best rugby, we are not successful in securing rights every time.
Setanta has retained the online rights to broadcast the RBS Six Nations on Setanta Sports Plus in the following territories: Bangladesh, Bhutan, Brunei, Burma (Myanmar), Cambodia, China (People’s Republic), India, Kyrgyzstan, Laos, Macau, Malaysia, Maldives, Mongolia, Nepal, North Korea, Pakistan, South Korea, Sri Lanka, Tajikistan, Timor-Leste and Vietnam.
In these territories the games will be live on our web and mobile products. Games will not be available on replay via the mobile applications, however we do expect the web platform to support replays for a period of time (subject to change).
