Default Enjoy a sail & international rugby on Saturday

We are planning a sail down to Yarmouth on Sat but hope also to watch some rugby on TV. Perhaps not Eng v Aussies (we'd be sailing !) but maybe Wales v All Blacks. Which Yarmouth pubs have telly ? Hope it might be the Wheatsheaf cos we'd also like to enjoy a meal and a few pints.

Could be a problem with this. According to the BBC website the Wales v NZ game will only be available on BB2 Wales!

'Autumn Tests - Wales v New Zealand
Venue: Millennium Stadium Date: Saturday, 7 November Kick-off: 1715 GMT Coverage: Exclusively live on BBC TWO Wales and online, full commentary on BBC Radio Wales, Radio Cymru, BBC Radio 5 Live Sports Extra and online'

Not sure you'll get that down there!

Probably my best weekend of the year saw a reach down to Yarmouth, Ireland against Wales in the Bugle and a drift cum motor back to Southampton in time to see England beat France.

Great weekend.

Oh and SWMBO and I finally got together too.

I don't know if it's any help, guys but the game is being televised live by S4C. If you have digital, you should get that, and I believe you can get English commetary via the red button on Sky. Not sure about freeview.

I think we'll lose by two score, btw.

Thanks for all advice.
Eng v Aus on SKY2 only. S4C is a Welsh channel & curiously they have Cymru v Seland Newydd scheduled for 1645 . The lovely Katherine Jenkins is on at 2115 which will be great even if she's singing in Welsh !
