Any suggestions?
Wish I'd seen that one sooner, just about anywhere in Lagos will put the game on for you, it's full of Aussies so the rugy is surprisingly big over there

Good shout.
Just to add a couple more options Catalancs, if you're near the Cathedral then Flaherty's (same chain as one in Barcelona) is a cavernous Sky Sports pub literally right next to it. Watched the NRL Grand Final in there a few years ago, and they have two Sky feeds IIRC so will usually try and keep everyone happy.
My own preference though is this place: http://www.texmexsportsbar.com Again its a stone's throw from the Giralda, but on a little side street so less touristy and better prices. Smaller than the other two, but loads of screens. The landlord is an Irishman and the if its the same bar staff a 'musho Betis' comment will have endear you to them straight away. If its the Friday night game they'll almost certainly put the RL on, and it used to be 10euro all you can drink Bud on a Friday night if you fancy a spot of alcohol poisoning. Its usually fairly quiet, but will be full of American college girls later on Fri / Saturday nights.

Cheers FireWire. Went into Flaherty's when I went down there a couple of months ago and they put the rugby on no problems. Will definitely try the Tex Mex sports bar next time. Much appreciated

I ah I forgot all about this place, or rather, I forgot it was in Sevilla! Definitely a good choice. Clearly I got drunk in too many towns on my travels through Europe!
