Saturday 9th June

Australia V Wales 8pm

Saturday 16th of June

Australia V Wales 8pm

Saturday 23rd June

Australia V Wales 3pm

Heres the link:- http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/rugby_union/fixtures/default.stm

I don't care, it is close enough.

I think we are usually GMT -2, and GMT -1 in your summer.

I think that hours difference works the other way , Sky have the coverage for the first two tests starting at 10.30 am which suggests a 11 am kick off in the UK which probably means 6 am for the last one -shades of the World Cup .

Thats 5am GMT. Add one hour for the summer time. I was too lazy to change that. Besides I am still in the EDT time zone, at least until the end of June.

I saw a poster that said third test at 6am UK time, so it's obviously right.
