The Wallabies continue their Rugby Championship campaign this Sunday at Gold Coast’s Cbus Stadium against the Springboks, LIVE on 9Gem and 9Now.

There will also be extended, live and ad-free coverage on Stan Sport – the home of rugby.

COVID-19 has played havoc with the Rugby Championship schedule, with all games being relocated to Queensland. Never before has Australia hosted four top-tier nations in what will be a festival of rugby over the next four weekends of double-headers between the Wallabies, All Blacks, Springboks and Pumas.

Coverage will be presented by the top Wide World of Sports and Stan Sport commentary lineup, hosted by Roz Kelly and Nick McCardle, and featuring All Blacks superstars Sonny Bill Williams and Andrew Mehrtens. Wallaby greats Tim Horan, Drew Mitchell, Morgan Turinui and Justin Harrison will break down all the action, assisted by Allana Ferguson.

After losing the Bledisloe Cup series, the Wallabies are preparing for another brutal contest against the world champion Springboks, who have the most effective forward pack in international rugby.

After Sunday’s clash, there will be little recovery time for the Wallabies, who face the Springboks again on September 18 at Suncorp Stadium in Brisbane, before playing Argentina over two successive weekends: September 25 in Townsville and October 2 on the Gold Coast.

The 9Network will screen all Wallabies fixtures in the 2021 Rugby Championship, with every match streaming ad-free, live and on demand with extended coverage on Stan Sport.

Stan Sport is the only place to watch every match of The Rugby Championship. Stan’s add-on sport package is available for $10 a month and new customers can start their free trial now by visiting Stan.com.au/sport.
