Any idea what time kick off will be / whether theyll be streaming the game?

They're sending a streaming link to email subscribers, though I did just see this on the Reds website which might be it ready to go:

Haven't seen anything about kick off time yet. I'd assume it'll be set for to be sometime after sunset, but I'm not sure what the condition is of the lights at ballymore right now and Saturday is set to be reasonably cool so I wouldn't rule out an afternoon start.

Pretty sure it isn't happening. Doubt they would want to go over East for an extra 2 weeks just for a trial game when they are not sure when they will be allowed home. I know the risk is they will be underprepared but haven't heard they were leaving

'The Western Force will base themselves on the east coast for the opening two rounds of the inaugural season of Super Rugby Pacific due to ongoing border restrictions in Western Australia as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. 'The Force home fixture against the Brumbies, originally scheduled for Round 1, will now be played in Canberra, with the Force instead hosting the Brumbies in Round 6. The home fixture against the Waratahs, originally scheduled for Round 4, will now be played in NSW, with the Force instead hosting the Waratahs in Round 9.'

That's dated yesterday on the Force website - it looks like they have swapped their home games to be away games for now so likely will come for trials and preparation before games in Canberra and Sydney so they aren't caught out by travel bans.

Trial team named today. Should clarify kickoff time. I’m expecting it will be a pretty mixed squad
