NRL building global footprint with Watch NRL

Watch NRL will enable rugby league fans from around the world to enjoy every NRL match live and on demand.

NRL CEO Todd Greenberg said the Watch NRL service will allow fans access like never before.

“We know people want to watch the best of Rugby League when they are overseas and this will deliver the game to them live wherever they are,” he said.

The streaming service will also provide live coverage of the World Club Challenge, Cameron Smith and Johnathan Thurston Testimonial Match and the Charity Shield, as well as the Dally Ms.

With an instant full match replay feature available, fans will be able to download matches to watch offline and set games to auto-download.

Streaming will be accessible through the Watch NRL website, via the mobile and tablet apps for iOS and Android and also through screens with Airplay or Chromecast enabled for Watch NRL.

Watch NRL offers a two-week free trial for those that sign up between February 14 and March 15, 2018.
