According to SKY when we asked them yesterday the NRL will be shown on SKY sports 3 so I guess it will be inclueded as part of the sports package.

After all the hype about the NRL and how good it is I found it really disappointing in fact it sent me to sleep.

Quote: Bilko "Hearing that the expected subscription fee for NRL coverage isn't too far away now, possibly June 20th. So enjoy it free whilst it lasts.'"


Will do - certainly won't pay for any more subscription channels.

I've just had a representative from Setanta Sport post on my RL forum about pricing and what people's thoughts are on the matter, here's his post.

Quote: "Premier Sports will be focusing on NRL and GAA with some pre-season soccer action over the summer. Cetic, Man U etc. I would be interested to see what people think would be a fair and realistic price for this service in the UK given the free to air coverage so far. The channel will be changing to PPV in a couple of weeks time. and the picture quaility is set to improve from today, Cheers.'"


When he got a couple of replies saying we think it should be free as we pay enough for Sky as it is, we got this reply.

Quote: "Unfortunately it is a minority channel that currently is only attracting goverment ads like never 'touch a hot bbq' or 'accept a building quote without a contract' 'open the door to strangers' etc! So making it free is not an option. Looks like the price will be £5.99 a month and when compared to paying £30 for streams I think this is okay for 12 NRL matches a month or so. Maybe I am wrong. Time will tell. I will post more details in the next week or so. Website should be up and running in a few days and you should have noticed the signal quailty improving from today.'"


I thought since he only for a handful of replies over on RLforums, I would open the topic upto people on here and direct him to this thread.

Quote: Kingmaker "bloody annoying you can't series link it on sky plus! keep forgetting to record it
You can series link it - well I have anyway. When I first tried it wouldn't allow, but closer to the broadcast time it let me do so and has been picking it up each week since then. Just keep trying.

Not too bad as we were paying £15 or so for Setanta before it became free on Virgin. Speaking of which, ask him if PS will become available on Virgin any time soon.

That and Magners, Microforce, Paint Runner getting sick of those adverts now.

£5.99 a month wouldn't be too bad, they should try to grab some more NRL games that the betting sites currently stream though to make it even better value, like the Monday games. They also need to improve their picture quality, I don't expect HD picture quality but it needs to get better.

It will need to be a monthly contract that people can cancel when the NRL season is over.
