I was looking for a way to watch the Rugby World Cup 2015 on my KODI Media Centre and stumbled across a great little add-on to allow me to stream it in 720p.
No VPN required.
The first step is to install KODI.
It can be downloaded here: http://kodi.tv/download/
If you want it on the big screen, get yourself a Raspberry Pi running KODI.
(If you are in NZ, grab yourself a Raspberry Pi KODI Combo from http://pishop.nz)
Once you have KODI up and running follow the below steps.
1) Navigate to System -> File manager

2) Click on "Add source"
3) Click on "None"
4) Type in http://kodi.metalkettle.co (make sure to include the http://)
5) Click Done
6) Type in a name for the source (eg. MetalKettle)
Your dialog should now look like below
