Match start times.

Wallabies vs Springboks, Sunday 27th Sep 2026

If I'm not mistaken kick-off is at 11:45 SAST, even though supersport and springboks.rugby both appear to show 09:45am. I wonder why they don't specify the timezone.

Its 11:45 for me

Cause they canalchoice.

Does canalchoice not have an international subscriber base?

If so, it would make sense to display the timezone next to the time.

Maybe they want people to create an account and login. (Really, tho'?.... B-1's snapshot looks like he's not signed in)

@Brian_G talk to some people, there with all your networking contacts in televised stuff, and get them to show the timezone.



p.s. currently my location is JHB.

Maybe they fixed it -

I actually don't mind so much that it doesn't match my timezone..... if it would just label the timezone, though, I could work it out for myself.

Maybe the website adjust the time to show it in your local time. The likes of twitch does this.

See #5 and #7.

It needn't matter what the visitor's timezone is, if they simply labeled the time displayed e.g. GMT or SAST or [insert Perth timezone code]].

What's that social rule called? KISS?

"keep it simple, stupid"

Kind of like the Occam's Razor for solutions. Basically, try not to over-complicate things by working out the visitor's timezone for him.

I always Google "rugby fixtures" and click on the SuperSport result as they adjust the kick off for the timezone you're in when searching.

Like I said before, it's an escape from real life.

Is it enough to keep me distracted? No. But I'm human, too.

I've been a Springbok supporter all my life... here and abroad..

Don't confuse me being willing to give up on the Springboks to achieve a voluntary society.

I abso-****ing-lutely would not hesitate.

Show my local time not necessary for me, but thanks!

As long as I can see the timezone code, I'm good.
