| Good to see the game back on free to air. Great first game too. Hopefully the lunchtime kick off will get more families and away fans through the gates.

Aye, well there is a downside to everything. RL fans are world class at finding it.

| It's good to have free to air rugby league which isn't part of the challenge cup but it should be a Friday evening match because you will never get Leeds to play on a Saturday lunch time at home. You will get a bigger crowd on a Friday evening that a Saturday lunchtime. So channel 4 haven't planned this well.

Leeds are playing on Saturday lunch time at home. I would hope the ambition is to sell the game out.

| would have liked it to be on fri night as you cant beat the atmosphere, plus it leaves saturday free for doing stuff.
Overall though a great result for the game. Get as many people watching as possible. Shame its only 10 games. would have loved it to be 1 a week but its a good start

| It's excellent news for the game.
Interested to see who they sign up to present it now.

| Has Ken Davy already managed to do more in a few months than Robert Elstone did in 2 years? Maybe he should be in for the job permanently...
Does anyone know if it comes with a cash injection?
Personally, I can't stand sky's coverage of RL, so will be interesting to see who they have as presenters/pundits etc.

| This isn’t the end either as I believe they are looking at the same kind of deal with Amazon Prime as well as Our League app.

I pretty sure Clive Tyldesley, one of the chief ITV football commentators, cut his teeth doing the Saturday afternoon matches Granada used to televise in the late eighties. Would be great if we could find another ambitious up and coming talent. Does not have to be steeped in the sport to do the job.

| Good not to have all our eggs in the sky basket.
Hopefully it pays hard coin.
Will it add much that the cup games on The grandstand slot don't?
I get why trying to draw big crowds appeals but being honest it's not something the clubs have worked overhard at to complement the poor old Beeb's coverage
