Despite club rugby not being played for the start of the 2020 season, NITV will be broadcasting replays of the 2019 club rugby season every Saturday for the next three weeks

RugbyWA in partnership with its digital supplier Local Media Services Company (LMSC) struck a deal with TV network SBS to broadcast 2020 WA Club Rugby games on the free tv channel National Indigenous Television (NITV) in late 2019.

With the 2020 season delayed SBS will be replaying a number of memorable 2019 club games for the WA community to enjoy.

Taking place each Saturday afternoon, the first game broadcasted was the 2019 Belt Up Colts grand final last weekend which will be followed up by the Alcohol Think Again Women’s final this Saturday the 17th of April at 1pm AWST.

This free broadcast along with RugbyWA’s Fortescue Rewind starting at 3:30pm AWST the same day gives viewers a full afternoon to watch WA club rugby from the comfort of their own homes.

Following NITV's broadcast at 1:00pm RugbyWA will be screening the Fortescue Rewind replaying the 2018 Buildcorp Super W round one matchup between the RugbyWA Women and the Melbourne Rebels on the RugbyWA Community Facebook page kicking off at 3:00pm
