Where Can I Watch The Rugby Final?

Sod's law would have it that the day I move to Doha is the same day of Rugby World Cup Final on the 20th October. Now I'm trying to get the company to change my flight from the 20th to the 19th so I can watch the game in Qatar. Now the question is, will the game be aired anywhere in Doha? I'm a huge rugby fella and can't miss the game.

p.s. Come on England!

Vyker, it's on at the Rugby club. It's for members only, a member can sign in at the door for 2 guests to get in, and as ooo said entrance costs 20QR for non-members.

Yes the rugby club will surely show the final. You can get in, even if not a member, just paying 20QR. By the 20th of October probably the Ridges will be open again too and they might show the game there as well.

England have no chance, of course!

Watch it in hotels, esp. Rydges 'Aussi Sports Bar' (likely full as Aussis will be in the final!), the Rugby Club (mostly British 'cameraderie'), or at home if you have Supersport satelite TV subscription.

Good luck with new job / trip / everything, really.

(PS - it's no' great here, but it's no' THAT backward!!)

Well, there is the Rugby Club. I'm guessing they may have it on tv. It's mostly a "members only" place but you can get in as a visitor. They serve beer too - in case that interest you. :)
