The 2020 State of Origin series is looming as an intriguing battle between a confident NSW outfit and a new-look Queensland line-up. The Blues have won the past two series and will be aiming for a hat-trick in a match-up delayed until November this year due to the pandemic.
No matter where you are around the world, as long as you have an Internet connection, you can live stream the intense State of Origin showdown online. There's a service built just for you that is inaccessible while you are in Australia or New Zealand, but is active everywhere else. It's called Watch NRL.
Live stream State of Origin overseas: Sign-up for Watch NRL
Watch NRL is a dedicated rugby league service that not only live streams the entire NRL competition, but also the full State of Origin series overseas. In addition, it also streams the FOX LEAGUE channel that airs on Kayo Sports and Foxtel in Australia.
This means you don't only get to watch the State of Origin games, but you can watch replays on-demand, classic matches from past Origin clashes, regular NRL games, all the chat shows (like NRL Tonight, NRL 360, Controversy Corner and the Matty Johns Show), international matches, Super League and more.
Watch NRL is basically part of the essential travel kit for any rugby league fan overseas.
It's reasonably priced, too. Depending on whether you are going on a quick holiday, a longer business trip or actually living overseas for an extended period, you can jump into the pass you need. Watch NRL comes in weekly ($20), monthly ($39) and yearly ($199) passes.
You can watch State of Origin overseas instantly as soon as you sign-up . The Watch NRL app works on iOS and Android devices, or you can log in via the website on your PC and Mac in a browser. If you want to watch it on your TV, you can use Airplay or ChromeCast (here's a guide to setting it up).
