I used to look forward to watching games on tv. Friday and Saturday nights when Saints where playing away! This idea of staging Monday night games is a total non event'!!!!!!!! And to make it complete they pick Wigan v Widnes as the featured game . Just another nail in the coffin

Mugwump mocking mental illness for a second time - "You are mentally ill and I can't indulge your madness any more" Utter disgusting abusive remark from a keyboard warrior:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_44308.gif



I think sky has made a mistake in not having super league on Saturday. The amount of people I've spoke to over the years that are non rugby league people that have told me they was in pub Saturday and watched the game.

Those people stay fans of the games and might even start going some games.

Success is not final; failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts. (Winston Churchill):d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_40218.jpg



Quote: St pete "I think sky has made a mistake in not having super league on Saturday. '"

They will be showing Superleague on a Saturday though, just not during the so-called soccer off season. Monday nights is just experimental as the viewing figures for a Saturday were poor. Much prefer Sky's viewing figures to remain high otherwise we might find our coverage cut to one match a week (Friday).

I don't think we have anything to worry about from Sky. It's the RFL that is the problem.

As I predicted a compleat miss match, and although I'm more than aware that all teams must play each other. YOU do not need to feature them on t.v. Sky and the RFL. Should be more selective with the games they Televise if you must watch the Vikings, broncos, reds, ect, film them playing each other. Show the top clashes more on t.v. like union do.

Super League needs a global company to get on board and fast. I remember reading about how they were looking into sponsorship from Emirates when the branding was up for sale. What balls that turned out to be.

A company like that however would revolutionise our game and would make it appeal to other cash rich companies and newspapers and websites. There would be a huge change in the perception of our game if a company like that came on board. RL has been ruined under sponsorship from Tetleys, Engage, Carnegie, Stobart, Irn Bru and more. those companies might as well be corner shops compared to Emirates, Aviva, Barclays et al. No big multinational will look at us and go "Eh! Look at that, Stobart is on board, why arent we?!" It is a long shot to get a big company to invest but bring them to games, give them the VVIP treatment, let them meet the owners. Just try! At worst, ask the Aussies for a little bit of advice?!

Sky are doing all they can with their coverage to promote the game but its the marketing and sales side of the RFL that needs to be looked at and quickly or else potential sponsors will start to fall away fast.

Tbh I only watch the Saturday night games if it's a reasonable match up i.e. a competitive fixture. My old man doesn't watch the Saturday night game because he's usually going out with my mum.
