Fox Sports has turned on its dedicated 24/7 World Cup Rugby channel.

The channel will deliver live coverage of all 48 matches, in high definition and ad-break free.

Fox Sport's Live coverage will be complemented with pre- and post-game coverage on select games, a slate of entertainment shows (World Cup Weekly, Mondays at 8.30pm; Rugby HQ, Fridays at 7.30pm; Rooftop Rugby, Saturdays at 6.30pm; Cup Runneth Over, Sundays at 7.00pm) and a brand new series, Rugby Legends, premiering Sunday 20 September at 6.30pm.

In London to host the coverage will be Australia’s most experienced rugby commentary team featuring John Eales, George Gregan, Phil Kearns, Tim Horan, Greg Martin, Rod Kafer, Greg Clark and Nick McArdle.

The Fox Sports rugby channel will be available for free to Foxtel sports subscribers as part of their existing package.

Until the action starts later this week, the channel will feature classic Rugby World Cup clashes.
