Didn't watch it and frankly who cares? As for the comment about the beeb "showing little RL now we have sold our sole to sky"....please explain the saturation coverage of cricket, Union, soccer etc all of which have 'sold their souls' also. RL being on SKY has knack all to do with lack of coverage, it's just not 'one of the gang' and that's all there is to it.

But surely more people go to watch League than Union (not including internationals), Cricket, Tennis, Snooker and Athletics so do you not think that it should be given equal airtime on that brown-nosing contest they show once a year?

The problem is the internationals are the only part that count in any sport other than Football. Union have a credible international scene, Cricket has the Ashes, Athletics have the Olympics, Tennis has Wimbledon.

I bet the average person doesn't know who the best Guinness Premiership side are, or who the best County Championship side are, whose the best athletes outside the Olympics or who has won any other major tennis tournaments outside the Grand Slams.

We need that international scene to appeal to the average person then we might get some coverage.

The way the show was put together this year seemed to be much more focussed on the achievements of the final ten rather than a review of what has gone on in various sports over the last 12 months. IMO it looked like everyone got their airtime cut and league didn't necessarily come off much worse than say domestic cricket or union in that regard.

Pretty much the way I saw it. Focus on the 12, with all the domestic sports getting roughly the same amount of time, even football only got an overview of who won the trophies.
